Engine sputter issue when accelerating

Hey guys,

first off like to say thanks to all of ya as I've been able to fix issues with my truck through your input before.
However I am in need once again!
I drive a 92' 3 litre v6 boasting 420k
My issue? Sputter. She starts on a dime and idles beautifully. The thing is, I hit the 2000 rpm range and she sputters and jerks like my prom date! Weird part is that after 2500 she's fine. During the sputter she gives me a CEL. Even weirder is she won't do this all the time.
I can drive a whole day normaly then the next shell act up. She breathes through a k&n and had her sparklers replaced 40000 ago. I'll try and get a video posted of the issue ASAP as well as those generally assist. What suggestions have your amazing minds got for me?

Okay so I just went and bought a obd1 reader, hooked it up and continually get the "Vehicle not responding" All the connections on the reader are good, when ignition is turned to on, CEL flashes, could there be something wrong with my actually obd port?! How does one diagnose a problem within diagnosis...inception...
My phones charging but its got all the pics of the hookups and the state of my port will post shortly
Any help is GREATLY appreciated
