I have a 94 3.9l with 47k on it, it usually runs great but yesterday i started her up and at idle she has an irregular rough spot, i thought maybe it was because the engine was still cold but ive been driving it all day yesterday and today and it doesnt go away. It also seems a bit sluggish to shift under acceleration but other than that it runs like a top so I'm thinking maybe its a small vacuum leak? Any help on this one please. Im supposed to take a little trip on friday and I'm not sure i wanna go until i got it figured out. Also my truck idles at 200-400rpm, usually dances right above 400 is this normal?
Thanks,
Zac

When is the last time you replaced the plugs or
you may have a carbon track on the cap.
Might be a bad plug wire also
That would be my first thoughts check them.
Maintainance and a regular tune up scedual will
do wonders

If a tuneup don't help, try cleaning the injectors. Good luck.

checked all the plug wires and the plugs are autolites with about 7k on them. It doesnt seem noticeable when the truck is in park or neutral if that means anything. Will check the rotor tomorrow. Is there a recommended way to clean the injectors?
thanks,
zac
