Help 1995c1500 350 5.7

Well i have been having problems its kind of hard to describe. When i am going about 45 to 50 and hit the accelerator it like there is nothing there for a minute no power that is. The rpms dont change at all though. I had some codes and figured out the the egr valve was bad and replaced it and havent got any more codes and its been a couple of days now but the problem is still there actually seems to be happing more and more frequent. I have replaced the spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, pcv valve, egr valve and its still doing it. I wanted to mesure the fuel pressure but there is no test point on the fuel rail could it be fuel pressure? I have yet to check my distributor cap and rotor could it be this? Any help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It could be the fuel delivery. When you say "there is nothing there for a minute", how long is it actually? Until it downshifts?

I'd reccomend buying a repair manual for your truck. It should tell you where you can check the fuel pressure, and will have a troubleshooting section.

Check on the fuel pressure regulator. If you still can't find it, disconnect the hose and hook the fuel pressure guage to it.

Also, check for vacuum leaks.

A Haynes or Chilton's manual only cost $17 to $20. If you can't afford that, then how can you afford the gas your wasting by trying to get your truck to shit n' get?
