It's been a while for me to diagnose this, but I think I've got it
figured out.


I can be driving under steady power or accelerating and the truck will
hiccup just enough for myself (and passengers) to notice. It fires again
& continues on immediately, but I am concerned about the issue
nontheless.


I thought there might be something in the fuel tank that would get
sucked against the outlet and then release, but that would cause it to
stall completely. Thinking that the fuel filter might be choking on
debris, I replaced that as well. No change.


Engine is a stock 2.1L WBX and the truck is 2WD. Any thoughts?
