2003 Silverado running rough


jharrypope

Question

I have a 2003 silverado and am having issues. When i first start truck it will miss and sputter and idle will fluctuate for 10 to 15 seconds then will smooth out. when on road at WOT it loses power, feels very restricted, rough runs, misses and the check engine light comes on. Pull code and it is p0151 and p1031. the o2 sensors have been replaced. Any clues as to what i could look for? Could a leak in the intake cause that or a bad fuel pressure regulator? HELP!!!

Ok. I have checked several things: I sprayed the carb cleaner looking for air leak and nothing found. Checked fuel pressure regulator and it was ok, however, I did check the fuel pressure and it's running about 22 psi when at idle. Shouldn't it be in the 50s?

Spec is 55 psi i believe, key on engine off. Shouldnt go down much from there when at idle. Sounds like a pressure regulator or maybe a fuel pump is bad. If the pump has more than 100k on it or is very loud when running, it is likely the culprit.
