Unhappy hesitation or stumble during acceleration

hi all,
I have a 96 4runner limited 4wd, no modifications yet. It will stumble during acceleration...more noticably above 60mph, but everyonce in a while at lower speeds. what I find is that it is some speratice. the coil ohmed out okey all my connections are good and tight. i installed new plugs, plug wire, fuel filter , and airfilter. transmition has also been checked out. can anyone help?

Thanks

Try cleaning your MAF. There is a write-up on this site. It could also be your TPS. Do you have a check engine light?

Yeah, Ag and I have both been through this before. Check the TPS and MAF as he said, if that doesn't work let us know and we can help ya more.

i also say clean your MAF. I had a check engine light and hesitation when accellerating. Then I cleaned the MAF and everything was fine.

My runner runs like crap when I use cheap gas. Try putting some chevron in it and see if that helps.

thanks everyone for all the replies. i cleaned the TPS and the MAF and it works fine so far, actually alot smoother. i'll make sure that all my other friends learn about this site. i'll probably be asking many more questions on future mods for both my 4runner and my pick-up. thanks for saving my a those $$$$$$$.

thanks,
