Tune up for gas is different in the timing compared to lead or unleaded fuel by upto 12 degrees
the two computers control the engine management & the transmission
when you switch between nat gas & fuel a solenoide is activated to block ether so they cant mix
if they did mix your gas would freeze the fuel & you would see the fuel pipes start to get iced up

2000 gmc savanna, Van starts up fine but when I get to a stop it will stall sometimes and the other times it will act like it wants to stall when I give it gas, runs great when it gets going

The first thing you need to do here is have the computer control system scanned for fault codes and an have a engine running test done to see what is going on in the automatic idle speed control system.

Code P1388 and P1399

P1388 JEEP - ASD or CNG (compressed Gas) Relay Control Circuit Possible causes - Faulty ASD Relay (most common cause)
- Faulty CNG Relay
- ASD or CNG Relay harness is open or shorted
- ASD or CNG Relay circuit poor electrical connection
- ASD or CNG Relay poor ground or supply voltage condition

P1399 is a related to the P1388 failure.

2000 chevy silverado 1500 5.3 v8 engine starts then will shut down when you push gas pedal or will only run for a mintue then stalls out and then is hard to start again

You may be losing fuel pressure or have a hard fault in the electronics of the engine control system. Do this, have the fuel pressure checked and have a fault code test run on the computer system. If all is ok then the ignition starter switch is suspect as well and the MAF sensor which will not set a fault when it fails.

I mistakenly put a regular gas in it when its an UNLEADED FUEL only model an automatic 1994 geo tracker

Hi!!
At the pump, when it says Regular, it means Regular Unleaded Gasoline, the one that says Super, is Super Unleaded Gasoline, the only difference between the two is the octane rating. Both will work just fine on your vehicle.
Good Day! Don't forget to rate this post!!

NO POWER WHEN ACCELERATING, STALLS OUT , TROUBLE STARTING RUNNING SLUGGISHLY. ALREADY CHECKED ONE FUEL SENSOR, AND CO2 SENSOR.

Replace the fuel filter on van and check the spark plugs for a fouling condition. If the van in question has not been serviced in a while you might think of doing it to correct your problems. Check all the filters and replace spark plugs. Hope this will help you.

Stumbling idle, stalls when throttle opens

If the car is running that bad the check engine light should be on and code/s stored in the pcm along with a snapshot of what is going on at the time the code is set. A possible solution is to check the Mass Airflow Sensor or the MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor depending on which your vehicle is equipped with. The engine may run until the engine computer switches to closed loop fuel control (means its warmed up and the pcm is in control of the fuel trim) and then stall upon accel. Be sure you have checked all the basics first.
