Have them check the fuel pressure. My tahoe runs fine, but has low power. They told me its the fuel pump. Mine has about 48 psi fuel pressure where it should be 55-63. Is it starting right up when you turn the key or does it take a little bit of turning over before it'll crank?

That's what i was thinking, but it cranks fine and idles fine. When i give half throttle or more check engine light starts blinking and i have no power. Several people have told me my cats or o2 sensors, the mechanic told me pcm. When i replaced the maf sensor it started running much better but still has the power issue. I'm completely stumped and have put over $800 into trying to figure this out.
