got out onto the hiway for the first time in a year, put some power on, and found a light power stutter of some sort around 70mph. Steady throttle, level pavement, air temp around +65F, rel humidity around 40%.

2000 V8/auto w/ 29k, regular gas.

easiest would be try another tank of gas, but, any other possibilites out there? thanks..

yup that happend to my dad. he put some crap low octane gas in.. toyota owners manual recommends 87 or higher at all times. i have even heard of people blowing there motors in the first couple of years on there tundras with bad gas. so now my dad buys chevron 91 octane only.
