New coil pack with all that?

also have you checked the manual adjuster on the throttle cable?


also for shts and giggles, while it is running spray around the intake with carb cleaner, if the idle changes when you do that your intake gasket is kaput, if not then that gasket is not the culprit.

Default 95 silverado loss of power

My husband has a 95 silverado, with a loss of power going up hills and normal acceleration. It will idle and purr like a kitten, but when you step on gas it wants to bogg down and try to cut out.
