Got a miss

[THEMOJOMAN]

My 95Mark sets in my Fla. garage all summer until we're here in winter months. Got in on the 7th,,had to jump it (naturally) It's got 45,000+ miles on it new fuel filter last winter (maybe 500 miles on that) It ran PERFECT the first 80-100 miles since the 7th BUT last night after a short trip to family(14 MILE ROUND TRIP) for Christmas,,IT WANTS TO MISS as I accelerate above 45 mph,,I babied it home,,7-8 miles. WHAT DO YA THINK? Water from setting all summer in our garage,,in Fla. in all that heat. (this was second winter we did that as I kept it garaged up north in the winter prior to winter of 2007) I hope it just needs some dry gas. It shouldn't need a TUNE UP until around 100,000 RIGHT?

Fuel would be my first guess as well.

I put in a can of dry gas,,took it for a run,,but noticed,,it only misses (more of a hesitation feeling) in DRIVE,,as it trys to up shift,,when I drop it down into D2,,it smoothes right out,,and I don't feel a thing ????? My mechanic up north (who works on 99% reg. cars not MARKS) says it still seems like a gas problem. He thinks I may have to burn most of that tank to notice anything. ??? HELP

Almost sounds like transmission shudder if 2nd smooths out for you.

What would cause a Transmission Shudder like that?
