Have you ever changed the fuel filter? It could be starving for gas when you get on it.

It's running better when I jump on it now, it's part throttle now that an issue.

I should change the gas filter though, I think it may be the MAF now.
I'm waiting till it cools down to change the Plugs and wires.

I had problems with mine also running little rough some slight backfire , check the resistance in the spark plug wires, I found 3 wires with too much resistance , and they where only 3 years old MSD wires, replaced them with Taylor Thunder 10.5mm wires , and its running almost perfect.

I used Talyor wires, I think they may be almost 3 years old. I got the GMPP wires to install and plugs (NGK TR55).

I'll change them and see what happens.

Thanks for your input.

Let us know how it responds to the new parts, and what you observe on the old plugs in terms of coloration and deposits.

I have some codes now:
BO-RFA
U1016 Loss of Communication with PCM
U1064 Loss of Communication with BCM
U1096 Loss of Communication with IPC

I did reset the PCM for fuel trim.

Then I reset the codes, but now they come back.
