Check compression, Might have a weak cylinder.
Also check the EGR valve to see if it might be stuck open or opens up too much when you accelerate. This will also cause a rough running condition.

Re: 95 suburban running rough
I have had some of the same problems for almost two years. Diagnosed the hell out of it, put in alot of parts/sensors as well as money, and the problem still persists. It started about 2 years ago with a slight stumble and miss under acceleration. I have had it to 3 different dealerships, a supposed "GM" guru, and this morning I spent 4 1/2 hours with the guy who I trust the most, my old mechanic. I have replaced the injectors, O2 sensor, TPS, Dist module, Cat, MAP, EGR, ECM temp sensor, knock sensor, plugs/wires/dist cap & rotor, as well as to swap out the ECM and Memcal with known good ones. Problems still persists. This morning we came to the conclusion that it appears to be running lean according to the O2 sensor and why the injectors are not compensating correctly is still the mystery. Just before this problem started, the trans was replaced under warranty by the local Chevy dealer and one of the items they noted they did was to "update" the ECM. I personally think that my problem is with either a wiring harness issue (wires shorting) or with something in the ECM such as the "update" that was done. Anyone have any ideas as to how an ECM/Memcal is done? Is it like updating the bios on the PC? Did I get a bad update? ANy of these issues like any of yours?
Just my thoughts and problems with my favorite vehicle. Bruce

Re: 95 suburban running rough
Just bought a used 95 suburban 5.7 4x4 as is/no warranty.
 I have noticed the exact same miss/hesitation/occasional stall described here. Happens daily. Looks like I'll start with the EGR. Has anyone solved their problem?Ted
