Default Engine bogging
1998 5.2 v8 bogs when under 1k. Just replaced spark plugs, cap and plug wires, changing oil every 3k miles. I don't know if it could be the fuel pump/filter or any of the sensors

Runs fine, when you take off from a stop it chugs and pops. I don't think there is a vacuum leak anywhere.

Has the truck been in water/mud lately? Coil could have gotten wet. I've seen that cause a bog before.

Has not been in mud/water, just through the snow. I don't think 8 inches of snow coulda caused it to bog, but I could be wrong

Naw you should be fine. Like previously said, take a look at plenum and clean the IAC sensor.
