Calling all TPI guru's

Whats going on fellas

This is my first time in 3rd gen, but have had a lot of them. My problem is I just bought a S-10 blazer with a TPI 350, and it only happens every once and a while, under a hard brake it kills the motor. Also what size plugs dose these motors have. Thanks in advance for any info.

Could be a gas tank related problem! See if it happens when the tank is completely topped off. My old IROC would do that if I was under a half tank...The pump starves and it kills the motor...Happened in high speed turns too... sputter sputter sputter...

Plugs? I am using the typical 5/8" size plug..I am not sure on the pitch or length..sorry. I use an NGK UR5..a step colder than stock supposedly
