Sounds to me like you've done about everything to figure out an engine problem. My parents had an S-10 a little older than yours, and my dad, from accross the country, described a loping, or missing sensation on acceleration, or every once in a while on the freeway. No sputtering from the engine, or backfiring. On my next visit, I serviced the automatic transmission. (filter and fluid) and made sure that the modulator was working properly. It fixed his problem. See what happens.. Might not help... but with everything else you've done, it couldn't hurt.
