Many thanks to all that responded to my bucking/stumbling issue last week.
I just returned from warm sunny south west Florida to cold gray south east Pennsylvania without incident. In fact the car could not have ran better. All I did was wash the engine compartment down to remove the film of salt, calcium and whatever chemicals the various State Transportation Departments choose to use. Cleaned the O2 sensor connections and packed them with antioxidant grease with the mindset that the salt combination was allowing weak voltage leakage and sending funky signals to the ECU. Whether it is coincidence or not, I don't know, but the car ran great.
Thanks again to all that responded.
