Default low rpm surging

Im having severe surging at low rpm (2000-2900)
Seems to be in 3,4,5th the most at WOT. Never noticed this before I installed a boost guage. I checked all connections and they are tight. Once the rpms hit 3000 everything is normal. Can anyone help? thanks very much....Joel<ul><li><a href="0">0</a</li></ul>

Default Re: low rpm surging

I have the same issue, i installed some sparkplugs and the problem started about 2 weeks later, i have ordered the Denso Irridum plugs and hope this will solve the issue. Don't know if this will help.

Default I used to have the same problem until...

I changed where I get gas. Apparently the cleaner the gas (the less additives it has) the better. I know get my gas from Costco and I have no surging whatsoever. I did get surging with any other brand (76, texaco, etc) in Washington state.
