I drove this Blazer To town the other day and it started acting up.I drove maybe 10 minutes and I was at 60 when it started again. I held the throttle to the floor but it acted likeno power once it dropped down to 40 it surged and than came out of it. The only codes I got was both O2 sensor banks sensors 1 readings. I got about 3 more miles down the road and it did it again. Its almost like it shuts down till it gets to about 40 and than comes out of it.

It sounds like your fuel pump is letting go. This system is very pressure sensitive and requires a minimum of 55PSI to run. I would rig up a fuel pressure gauge that can be viewed while driving and see what the pressure does during the failure.
Those codes were probably lean codes.
Sorry RT. I was typing while you were posting.

I put a new one in because one of the sending unit lines rusted off and double checked to make sure I had the filter on right. I am getting 58 psi when it acts up. I hooked my modis up and I also have no miss fires
