problemo with Blazero

[yall]

I am having a problem with my blazer. It started a while ago while I was pulling trailer, probably too much weight for my Balzer, but anyway I was pulling it when it started acting all funny. Like the rpms would flucuate and the oil gauge was flucuating with it, like they were in sunc with each other. Then my brakes went out and it wouldn't stop. SoI got a new trailer, a much lighter one to pull my bike around, and it was all fine and dandy. But it has started to happen again, without pulling anything. If I pump the brakes once or twice then try to come to a quick stop, it doesn't happen. the brakes go out, acting as if the engine died, and the rpm's and the oil gauge starts fluctuating again. I have no clue what this could be. the service engine light came on and I will check it out tomorrow to see what codes come up. With this measly description, does anyone know what could be the problem? I will update tomorrow with the codes. Thanks for all the help and the library full of info. on this site!

Could be several things from the transmission to the bearings at this point... Lets get the codes and go from there..

Intermittant power loss sounds like the problem. (no vacuum, no power brakes)
What year Blazero is it?

Thanks for the info guys. I tried to do it today and it was running just fine, but last night it was not acting fine. I went to Checkers and had them check the computer and the code that came up was p1133. They said it has something to do with o2 sensors. What do yall think? Thanks again for the help.

Oops I forgo to mentkion it is a 95 Blazero, with nothing fancy about it. Jus the norm.

Can't say for sure if it's the o2 sensors or not, but it's highly likely as that's the codes it throwing.
Your description above sounds like a plugged or faulty EGR valve.

The sensors themselves aren't too expensive, ~$20.00 each,and probably not a bad idea to replace them if they're original.
The EGR valve is quite expensive, ~$150.00, but you may be able to get by with a good cleaning of that.
