It runs great until it gets to operating temp then it starts to hesitate when starting out or going up a hill. It gets worse when I pull my trailor. So far I have put in Fuel Pump & Filter, New Plugs, Cap, Rotor, Wires, O2 Sensor, Cleaned the EGR Valve and put a screen under it, and new PVC valve. I have a lawn care business and need my truck daily. If anyone has any other Ideas I would greatly appreciate it. Oh, Yea! I also looked at the exhaust manifold and did not see any cracks that might leak air in and mess with the O2 sensors.

I was curious if you solved your problem yet, I'm having the same trouble with my '92 which is a 4.3 . It runs fine till it warms up then it wants to die at times. wait a few seconds and it cranks right back up and runs fine for a short while.

When I first start my Bravada in the morning it hesitates for the first block or two. It is like its starving for gas. After two blocks it runs fine. could this be the fuel pump or filter?

You're open to all sorts of delicious impulses now, such as splashing out your hard- earned cash on little treats or big purchases. Indulgence is the key here, and you'll also want to push the boat out if you're going to a restaurant for a meal. You'll work your way through the menu, regardless of the cost.
