Default Full Throttle a NO NO!!!!!!

Hi guys whats up?I have a 2000 blazer 4wd 4.3 and when I floor this truck from a dead stop it stumbles and has trouble gettin up to speed.If I go into it slowly the truck rips and has tons of power!It seems like the fuel is not there or the fuel pressure is not right!I have done a TUNEUP but the truck does have some miles on it but does not LEAK,BURN or use any oil.It always fires right up and seems very heathly internally.What do you guys think could be causing my problem here?

How were you able to tell? CEL or visual inspection? I'd like to know how to tell when they get bad because I'm having a problem not totally unlike that...

Thanks!

Regards,

Thomas

Thanks! I'll try that on mine as soon as I get the exhaust back together.

Wait, you unplugged your MAF sensor, ran the engine and actually took it for a test drive? Is it still unplugged?
