slow acceleration still

hey guys I have a 2000 silverado with 70k on it stock 5.3. When I take off from a stop it acts like it has no power until it builds up rpm. Never dies but its like it has a flat spot. I have tries the injector cleaner and new air fiter with no help and the truck throws no codes. Its not that big of a deal had it sence I bought it with 40k on it with this problem. No other problems just a pain in the butt now that I live in the city. Wondering if anyone esle has herd of this problem? thanks

Check your air cleaner is it clogged up?

So, what have you done to the truck so far to eliminate this problem?
This may give us a better understanding of the problem.

I am sure you dont want a guess but with the amount of information that is all we can possibly do.

My guess is that you may have a vacuum leak........

Good luck.......

i have the same truck but a z71 and i have a problem when it heats up and then is started again. It takes a little gargling to start it up and sometimes it hesitates when accelerating but not all that often. I havent taken it in to see what the problem could be but when i do ill let you know!
