Could be a ground issue. I found that the cluster if ground wires that connect to the block between the rear of the engine and the distributor were corroded on my 96. I ended up cutting off the terminals and crimping on new ones.

After I did that, I looked wherever I could for ground points and cleaned them up.

If anything, this is a free thing to do as part of your troubleshooting.
