Hey guys, my trucks been acting up lately, throws all o2 sensor codes plus p1351, I replaced the igntion coild 2 weeks ago because it was doing the same thing but way worse. I couldn't even give 1/4 throttle with it backfiring and falling on its face. All the codes are pending and shut off for about 4-500 miles. Happens more when its extremely cold out. Haven't checked plugs but wires and cap are good. It mostly happens going uphill or I give it some to pass on the highway. Thank you in advance. Ohh and its a 97 k1500 with a 5.7

He hasn't been on in over a year, but those symptoms sound like a vacuum leak, a big one. Have you done anything to the truck recently?

I have the same issue going on with my 99 Tahoe! I've replaced the plugs, wires, cap, rotor, distributor, timing chain, ICM and the crank sensor. I've replaced the 02 sensor as well and still getting a code for it. I'm completely lost....
