motor cuts in and out while offroad???

95% of the time when i'm offroad it seems like my motor bogs and cuts out, almost like it stalls but doesn't. it gets real bad if i try to dump the clutch

it's a 92 pickup dx, 22re, 5 speed, 4x4 with 31/9.5 tsl's.

i only played in the mud once when i had the 30/9.5 michelins that came on the truck (and old clutch) and could dump the clutch with no problem. the motor wouldn't bog or cut out.

i put the tsl's on the truck, and a new napa clutch a couple weeks later, and ever since it's been acting weird. (i never went muddin with the tsl's and old clutch)

could it be the tires? the new clutch? the motor?

i know, i'm horrible at explaining things....

ok when you go off roading do you get her wet? if so your just getting water in your cap just take it off and hot glue it back together so it has a water tight seal there

it doesn't usually get wet, i think it's about time for a new cap anyways.

and i heard sealing off the cap can make moisture build up inside? does anyone know it that's true?
