'04 Trailblazer @ 130k.
Not sure I am using the proper terminology, but I will try to explain. Out of the blue, my TB started to hesitate & slightly buck or miss while driving at between 50 & 60 MPH. I don't have to be accelerating, but it seems that the issue happens when in 4th gear & driving steadily. I feel a slight miss. If I accelerate, & it downshifts, I don't notice a problem. The fact that it is in 4th gear & under light load, like a slight incline, seems to show the problem. Not getting a code & have cleaned the throttle body & done the relearn. I suspected a fuel issue, but I have run that tank down to less than 1/4 tank & filled up & have driven maybe 50 miles with no change. I am now focused on a coil pack, but without a code don't know which to target. Maybe fuel filter? I don't think it's ever been changed, so I need to anyway. Is it likely to be the culprit? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
