Im bettin on a vacuum leak somewhere.When u accelerate in first,ur pulling lots of vacuum which is advancing the dist.The automatic uses vacuum to shift thru gears 1-3 and the overdrive is electric.I bet when the truck pulls vacuum to shift from 1 to 2 gear the dist isnt getting enough vacuum to maintain the advance,falls back and the truck stumbles.I would replace the vac line from the carb to the dist and check the little bitty short line from the manifold to the carb base behind the carb and next to the valve cover.It is hard to see,but it is in the hottest place on the truck and gets overlooked and often leaks.bj
