Kevin,

Since you are in the Land of the Winter Salt, I'm going to describe what
might be the worst scenario, but it happened to me.  Whenever I drove a van with a
steel gas tank I had similar problems.  It was in the winter and the
stumbling occurring consistently on warmer days.  At first I blamed it on watered gas
from the station I normally used.  It was watered gas alright, but it wasn't
watered whenever it came out of the fuel pump at the station.  My gas tank had
some pin holes on the top which, during warm days, would allow the melting
slush to leak into the tank.

The stumbling had occurred at other times of the year, but it was so fleeting
that I could not track the problem and a restart always seemed to cure it.  I
guess the shaking of the van during the restart agitated the water enough to
disperse it through the fuel And, I never had gas leaking during refueling.
Once there was enough water in the fuel that it was no longer an intermittent
problem I was able figure out what the problem was.  Perhaps you are getting
water in the fuel.
