Holy shiat! I just re-read all the posts and now this finally makes sense!
When I was experiencing that off-idle stumble, essentially what was happening was there was not enough
volume of electrons to fire the MSD. It was too low an rpm for the alternator to
put out sufficient volume to generate the proper spark, so the system really needed the battery at that point to supply the necessary level of juice. Once I got to higher rpms, the alternator was then supplying enough volume to compensate for the loose negative battery cable condition. Hence the stumble/cutting out immediately went away.
Teacher, do I get an 'A' for today?
