Thanks for all the help with the truck problem. I took off the cat first like many suggested. it ran ok for a couple of minutes and then ran rough and the ssme poor performance. Had a test pipe I picked up and put it on to quiuet it down to hear the truck run,same problems no powwer farted kicked stalled. Looked inside the cat it ,I could see through it, the only thing was the honeycomb was cracked . thought I would start with the igniton and remembered I had an ignition module in my 94 chev with 454 that came with it when I bought it. Someone mentioned to check it., .Since It was there I went to change it and the distributor was loose.Change the module and set the timing .. I got a new truck lots of power runs smooth pushes lots of snow. It was either the module or the timing. It runs get. I have been pushing snow for 2 days with it and it hardly misses abeat. So thanks again for the help.
 
Thanks for posting your findings. At the time I was a little amused that so many folks immediately pounced on the cat. Of course I was off-base too, thinking it was a fuel system problem.
 
You did good, I would expect the timing was real slow if the distributor was loose but nothing to loose by changing module.
