Stumbling at highway speeds and a code 41--->

Well, My TA sometimes stumbles at highway speeds but not all the time. At first I thought of the fuel filter(cheap fix if the problem). No good. Then I pulled a code 41, which gave me 3 options. I went out and picked up a new distributor cap, rotor, plugs, and wires. Still no fix(but probably needed it anyway) . Anyone help? Thanks in advance. I'd really appreciate it. Here is some info for those of you.......

sounds like a weak fuel pump, it will usually show on the highway first, my book also states that the MAP/vac sensor could be giving bogus info to the ECM......
