Power problems on a GMC Jimmy.

I have a 2000 Jimmy that runs great at regular driving but if you floor it it leans out. Fuel pressure is 55psi and doesn't drop when I drive it. I changed the spyder thinking it was the problem and its doing the same thing. Any ideas? Ii don't think its the fuel pump because I have good fuel pressure. Any ideas?

Check or better yet replace the fuel filter if its been over 2 years since it was replaced. Also, check the fuel pressure regulator. Pull the vacuum hose after its been running a bit and see if it has fuel in it. If so, you need a new FPR.
