Hello All. Thanks for taking a few minutes to look at this post.
My 96 Itasca Suncruiser has this strange "quirk" that started a few months ago. When we are on a trip, and get off the interstate it starts "missing out" when I start accelerating. It clears up once the RPMs get over 2500. It is worst when I have been traveling and get to a park and try to back it up...then it starts missing and backfiring. it idles just fine though?????? Only does it when you push the accelerator.
One mechanic told me to drive it until it fails... and the other thinks it "may" be the fuel pump. Personally...from a logical point of view...I am wondering if it is the EGR valve sticking open (letting too much burnt gas back in). Any ideas?
Thanks for your time... I am in panic mode trying to get this thing fixed before a big trip next weekend to Myrtle Beach (15th anniversary).
