So under a load, at low rpm, you have a noticable miss. Right?
My first thought is tune up parts, especially if you picked up yours at Autozone, or someplace similar.
You could also have a dead spot in the airlfow meter, as many people drive at a constant speed for many years. Although I don't think that is real common.
Could also be an exhaust leak (can't tell you how many times people have said they have a miss when it's just a leak)

mine has an exhaust leak at the header and right where the cat used to be...i've never noticed a skip...
Wiggle the wiring to the airflow meter, or if you have a spare one around try changing them out and see if you notice a difference.
How many miles on motor?
could have a ring, or seal valve leaking.
My black supra did that and would sputter because i didn't rebuild the head and it was dumping oil in one cylinder which = fail!

yes I think I may just have a bad wire not conducting the spark until I spin the motor up a little bit. thanks a bunch for the feedback.
what is a "BHG"?

Blown Head Gasket. If you haven't done a compression check yet you might want to just for peace of mind.
