I just finished replacing my intake manifold gasket and I had a misfire problem I fixed thanks to correctly timing it with a yahoo answers user's directions. But after the misfire disappeared I was out test driving my truck. It stumbles a little after taking off from a dead stop (when it's first started) and then gradually smooths out. I figure this is just the PCM re-learning the engine since it hasn't been driven in over 3 months and the battery was disconnected for 2 months. The gas hasn't been changed either for 3 months. And that doesn't really concern me as I can fine tune that. What concerns me is that while I was test driving it, it ran fine under a normal load, so I decided to test it under a hard one. I opened the throttle half way open and the engine reved up and made noise like it was accellerating really fast, but the car itself was moving like it did under a normal load. The speedometer barely climbed any faster. I checked for trouble codes and there are none.
