I have a 95 chevy silverado 8 cyl 4x4 that is acting up. When I press on the gas pedal while driving the truck makes a jerking motion acting like it is going to stall. I have replaced the air and gas filter but it is still doing it. Does anyone have any other suggestions that I can try. Thanks.

I have a 97 silverado that makes a slipping/grinding noise at intersections when the tires slip on the snow. When I let off the gas it catches and is fine. It only does this in 2wd. Any idea what i'm dealing with? Differential? Transfer case? Cost? Thanks for your help

bring it to a shop and have them check out the rear end, maybe have them replace the gear oil in it

Have you checked for varnish build up in the air valve? I had a 97 and a 2000 Chev truck and they built up varnish, the air valve (controlled by the accelerator pedal) would stick and not want to change position. Then when you pushed hard enough on the pedal to move the air valve, the truck would jump. Remove the big air hose from the cleaner to the valve and clean with injector/carb cleaner and paint brush/toothbrush.
