Stalling 97 Jimmy

I have a 97 GMC Jimmy that stalls very intermittently. It seems to happen when the tank is less than half and when the weather is damp or wet. I have taken to the dealer and they can not find anything wrong. It recently had 60,000 mile maintainence(fuel filter, transmission tune up, etc). I have used high test gas and some gas additives(Textrol) to no avail. Any suggestions?

    I had the same problem with a 4.3l blazer. after 3 trips to the dealer and $500( replaced the computer and ignition wires ) in failed attempts to fix the problem a hair line crack was found in the distributor cap and a bad rotor. you should have these checked out.
