Our Tahoe just turned 140K miles. Recently it has begun to hesitate when pressing accelerating from a stop. At first I suspected a transmission issue but, after some research, am fairly sure it is a fuel filter or fuel pump issue. Would appreciate any advice. New to this group.

it's possible at that mileage that you need to have a direct injection cleaning service done, if that is all it is you will notice a different instantly, that and at 140k you are past the service interval for plugs/wires and 02 sensors
