Miss and doesn’t want to accelerate

I’ve got a 1997 k1500 5.7. It has a random miss and doesn’t want to accelerate at all. I’ve recently done the cap/rotor, wires and plugs. Ran great after all that, but now temps have been around 0 and it runs like crap.

I have a 97’ k1500 with a 5.7. I’ve had a problem with my truck accelerating from a stop to 10-20 mph then it goes just fine. Any help would be appreciated.

I’ve got a 97 k1500 with a 4L60E. Reverse doesn’t work the first few minutes. After it warms up it moves just fine. What could it be?

Electric fans worth it?

I have a 97 k1500 with a 5.7. I was wondering if electric fans would be worth it. Would I need an upgraded alternator or is stock one good enough? Is there really any noticeable hp differences? And what would it take to install one of these?
