please help,
i have a 1999 blazer 4.3 litre vortek v6 with 200,000 miles...it is running really rough when taking off...between 15 -25 mph.....cant seem to figure out the problem.
have ruled out the catalytic converter and throttle position sensor....has new plugs, cap and rotor....at a loss as to what to check next...put code reader on it and it is not throwing a code...
any ideas will be greatly appreciated

Had same problem and a simple cleaning of the MAF sensor cleared up a multitude of problems.

Give it a try, won't take 30mins; let us know if it does your Blazer as much good as it did mine.
