I have a 1995 Silverado (K1500, V8, Automatic, 231k miles) I am having trouble with the truck all of a sudden. It surges while at red lights, when in drive. When I make a turn at a really low speed and my foot is off the gas, the truck dies. It hesitates and shakes when the gas pedal is barley compressed. I have replaced the plug, wires, inline fuel filter, alternator, battery, put in fuel injection cleaner, replaced valve cover gaskets, replaced exhaust gaskets, full fluid top off, oil change and new air filter. I have also noticed my gas consumption has been gradually getting worse. I am kid of lost as to where I need to go from here.

Hi wnba21s, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Do you have a check engine light On or has flashed and also when was the last major tune-up?

Lets do this clean out the idle air control valve, PCV and EGR valves and test the throttle position sensor and manifold absolute pressure sensor
