no engine told at all, and is an engine/efi question. pure.
backfires to air clear or to rear tail pipe or muffler explosion.???
we can no hear it back fire and matters huge.
if only muffler explosion that is super rich fueling.
right fast foot can not save the stall right or even gets you full engine power doing so???????
your gm car has vin code and 8th digit is engine code
best is know what's under the hood first to fix any car.or truck
otherwise answers will be wrong,
a real shop opens the hood and goes AHHHHH
me zero. ahhhh
Avalanche 1500 or 2500?????????????????
good no Diesels here. (USA answers me)
5.3 L LM7 V8 (gasoline)
5.3 L L59 V8 (gasoline/E85)
8.1 L L18 V8 (gasoline)
we can not guess service history of any car /engines
21 year old spark plugs? no way are those good if true.
no miles on truck told. 250,000 miles? more?
got bad fuel, truck ran last month ok or last decade ok? history matters on all machines. for sure.
check all fuses yet, as in ALL
scan the PCM for errors called DTC and it shows p0300 ?
or other DTC errors. all modern cars are scanned first.
or go broke guessing you will.
bad spark the 5.3 runs 8 cops, but are not WELL cops they are hv wired cops.(packs) the 8 HV wires sets are never good at 21years later. they fail, hard.
as see here.

there are lots of causes under page 1 basics rules
bad engine,
bad spark
bad fueling.
compression bad. below 150 PSI or 0psi.oops. bad engines do not burn or make full power. even vacuums test bounce, no good that.
then spark we test spark on all 8 plugs( using tools for all tests)
last is fueling , good fuel,? ,
fuel pressure at spec,cranking and idling.
fuel pressure reg tests pass FPR.
this 5.3 runs a TBW system , throttle by wire if DTC error for it show up it will never ever run right .
there are 50 causes and up to 20 tests using tools to find them all
gue$$ing is not going to be cheap or worse. adding bad parts over good. oops. now 2 hard failures.
so what is the plan? nobody ever says hear.
buy tools and do the tests
?
or just want blind men to guess 50 times.
or get it service in a real show with real tools and skills.
now my silly guess
valve spring 1 cracked and valve sucked, and compression dead here#1. and vacuum nasty bounce ,PCM goes mad with nasty vacuum. it sure will go crazy. EFI just hates bad vacuum. MAP sensor goes nuts and sends nuts readings to PCM, and PCM is clueless what to do. for a fact. ( it will try and fail hard)

Btw it's a 2006 Ford Focus
