Car starts to stumble, then jumps back

Alright, sometimes, when Im driving, my car will start to stumble, it sounds like it's getting bogged down, it happens for like 4-5 seconds at a time, and as soon as it started, it's over and it's riding fine.

It happens when im going through town, at fairly low speed

How old are the plugs and wires? Sounds like a ignition problem. I fixed a tbi truck with the same sypmtoms today. It was just a fouled plug and worn wires. Make sure no plug wires are touching the exhaust as well.
