Yes I agree Tim's right. Reset the computer and see what codes ya get after a short run. Know that ya will lose your clock and radio preset channals when ya do this. But hay yer clock was prolly of anyway and ya might find some better radio channels.

HELP!!!!
Sounds like it could possibly be related to the EGR or vacuum leak of some sort. Most popular place for these I-6's to leak are at the throttle body gasket and where the upper intake manifold meats the lower intake manifold. Any air that gets into the intake post MAF (if you have a MAF) and post throttle body, you will have issues.

Good luck man, I went through what you are going through right now.
