I drive a 1995 GMC sierra with the 4.3 liter v6.

Ok sometimes when I am getting ready to take off from a stop sign if my RPM's are below about 1800 if I press the gas very much at all the engine will stall and almost die. It lugs down and the RPM's drop really low but if I let my foot off the gas and press again or just keep my foot on the gas the RPM's will jump back up after a second or so.

What could be causing this?

 

Have you replaced the fuel filter lately? How long has it been since the last tuneup?

 

It has a like 3 week old fuel filter and it has been a while since a tune up. Like 3 years.

 

I would try a tune up. Try to get everything Acdelco. Chevy came out of the factory with Acdelco and they like it!

 

K. I have been putting it off for a while. I guess I just need to go get it done lol.

 

Yes I do mine once a year. If that doesent fix it let me know!

 

buddy of mine had one just like that and his needed a fuel pump but like zuk said try a tune up first

 

That was next on my list if the tuneup didnt work but the fuel pump is in the tank so ts not an easy job and tuneup needs to be done probably anyways after three years!!

 

true that yo
