Body is a 1996 Jimmy, motor was definitely replaced. No idea what year motor because no one will answer. Look up the plug for a 96 jimmy you get (ACdelco) 41-993 a thin gasket seat plug. This plug does NOT fit in my vehicle. The 41-803 tapered seat, does, however this plug comes gapped at .45 where specs say .60 this I believe has caused several issues.
MY THEORY: The crank position sensor notices the crank is not where expected because the spark is spiking the crank harder and faster due to the smaller gap. The cps attempts to adjust the timing, the throttle position sensor now notices that the timing is retarded and attempts to adjust the rpm and then the rest of the system fails while driving the motor literally goes into idle while at 45 MPH and flooring it will not change a thing.
