I have a blazer with the 4.3 li vortec. ,when I 1st start and drive all is great but about 6 min into driving. The vehicle losses its ability to accelerate if i press the gas down like taking off from a stop light however if i stop and restart it i does run like when i first started the engine for about another 6 min ,replaced fuel filter and pump never had this before. What could it be?
