Ok,I changed the cap and rotor and still the same thing hesitation under load, now everything has been replaced except for the Ignition Control Module. What should I do? I'm basically throwing parts at it without fixing the problem, so it's either take it to Chevy or R&R the control module.

I've owned the tahoe for 4 years and I haven't replaced or serviced the cap or rotor,to tell you the truth I'm 100% positive it's the original cap and rotor.

@am92 no codes,I have an interceptor scan gauge on the pillar that plugs into the OBDII port and reads/resets codes. I don't think the cap and rotor have ever been replaced bro,I can take it to the dealer for $115 to scan it on their computer. What should I do?
