Well, I think I've set a record for time of ownership to time of problem. Not bad for two or so weeks. Anyway, I was driving last night and got on it in first gear. I immediately noticed something wrong. My first instinct was drivetrain because I needed a new clutch anyway. Well, that didn't solve it. Basically, I've got a real bad stumble anywhere from 1500-3000 RPM. It only does it under power and it seems to straighten out over 3K. I've noticed the volt meter in the dash jumping around a little and the alternator has a whine to it. Could that be the problem? It seems to rev fine while in neutral, it only seems to do it under power. Any ideas? Anybody in the Puyallup area want to take a look at it? I'm willing to pay, just would like to get someone that knows their stuff. Thanks!

Temperature doesn't affect it and there's no sound, such as lifter or rod knock. The exhaust is loud so if it is making other noises, I can't hear them.
