Idles but bogs down with a load

Truck will idle but with a load on the motor it will bog and almost stall. New map sensor, computer, vacuum lines, fuel lines, checked timing, new cap, rotor, coil, pick up coil, fuel pump, fuel filter, regulator and injectors. Not sure what else to do...

    we checked the timing with a snap on timing light, and its dead nuts. we removed the vacuum line off the fuel pressure regulator and plugged it with someones finger, in which case it no longer bogs down...suggesting low fuel pressure. but i guess just cuz a part is new doesnt means it works. i'm beginning to think that its a bad pump/filter/regulator...not sure which one. guess we have a few more tests to run in the morning

How about a defective fuel pressure regulator, buy a fuel pressure test gauage from Autozone and test the fuel pressure under a load and at idle..

SOURCE: 92 dodge 318 truck engine runs til you stop, then stalls when put

Then i think i'd be dumping some soapy water on the intake gaskets checking for leaks. ANd wiggle the **** out of all vacuum hoses. ( you probably did that) And if there aren't any, your cam could be tired. You got a tough one there. Hard to figure with a keyboard.

1990 Chevy 1500 idles with the Map sensor unplugged and a finger over the vacuum line but dies when you take your finger off the line and when the truck is put in drive?

You might want to check and make sure the exhaust converter or muffler is not plugged. If it is it will not allow the fuel to be pulled into the engine.thus you shudder and stall.

Car idles fine, but sputters, bogs and dies if gas pedal is pressed.

new spark plugs this decade. (a tune up?0
the filter is part of all 60k tuneups. letting it clog wrecks good pumps.
my wild guess, its lack of fuel flow, do to old filter.
or low fuel pressure.
car is identical to a Corolla. so is not unique or rare as some Geo cars are.
the cam belt not changes, invites valve kissing piston tops. BOOM
end of engine. (costs more to fix then worth of car)
the word is bogging, my engine bogs
if if bogs WOT (wide open throttle) and dont catch up < ITS NOT THE TPS. ever.
tps bad causes short bogs, called hesitations.
The map sensor , is what measure air flow and the ECU matches fuel to this air flow.
my guess, is it does that, but fuel pressure is like 15PSI, bad.

I have a 1988 GMC 1500 with a 305 the problem is that it wont idle I found that if I pull the vacum line off the MAP sensor it is fine for 30 seconds then dies I got a new map sensor and nothing chan

Change the PCP valve and run the heater. This should take care of it. You only have to run the heater one time as this is controlled by the vacuum system. This will cause your motor to run proper.

When i start my jeep in the cold mornings it starts up but bogs right down and stalls then i have to accelerate for the second start up for a few minutes to warm it up a little and then it bogs and stays...

Your only problem friend, is the temperature sending unit/sensor. Upon cold start, this sensor wil tell the computer to go into cold start mode putting a bit more fuel in and raising the idle a bit to keep it running when cold without using the throttle. Replace that sensor and your good to go. Makes sense, right?

1991 firebird will not idle cold and bogs down while driving

This sounds like a fuel issue to me. If I am not mistaken, this engine has two injectors running on a separate fuses. Remove the air cleaner assembly, and make sure both are firing while engine is running. If so, then check the fuel pressure. If you have a fuel pressure gauge, connect it to the fuel rail, and start it up. Remove the vacuum line from the fuel pressure regulator to see where it is set. You should have at least 36lbs of fuel pressure. If the pressure is too low, check the fuel filter. It may be clogged, or you might have a weak fuel pump.

Also you changed the throttle position sensor, you will need to make sure it is set properly.

hope this helps,
Chris
