Maybe to much fuel. Does your coolant gauge work or register? Could be the ECT sensor. Could be fouled plugs also. Do you have smoke coming out the back? is it black smoke?

    Yes the gauge registers an it smokes very littel

  • Randy Ohler Jun 06, 2015

    What color is the smoke? White, white with a bluish tint, or black? You could just try to clean the throttle body inside of it

  • Randy Ohler Jun 06, 2015

    When is last time it had a tune up? Plugs wires cap and rotor?

SOURCE: bogs down on acceleration

buy 2 fuel filters. buy can of SEAFOAM at parts store. use 1 f filter to replace old one(you'll probably see old looking gas, with an odor).Pour SEAFOAM into tank. fill up with PREMIUM gas. after about 100 miles change out fuel filter 1 last time..add SEAFOAM every 3-5000 miles and you should be fine. the ethanol in the gas turns to goop and adds water to your fuel, and puts carbon on your valves and through out your emission and fuel system. The ethanol will be alright as long as you follow these instructions. and the SEAFOAM will keep you from having line freeze up in the cold months ahead, and will give you better gas mileage. good luck.

I have a GMC and I have replaced all the sensors

You may have a restriction in the exhaust, like a clogged catalytic. Converter. The mass air flow and the fuel pressure were good ideas too. lee
