1994 Chevy Blazer 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 170000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I was driving along when my truck started acting like I wasn't pushing on the gas even though I had the gas pedal to the floor. it acted like i had gotten bad gas even though that wasn't it. now it just completely died on me.
everyone tells me its the fuel filter or the fuel pump can you enlighten me what might be the problem

I had the same problem with my 97 blazer. The first time it was the fuel filter. The second time it was the fuel pump. The third time it was the catalytic converter. It rusted through and was clogged. I would change the fuel filter first because a do it yourselfer can change this and it is cheap. I would also see what kinda shape your converter is in. When my converter was clogged, I had to "floor" the truck just to get it going. You can also check the fuel pressure too.
