It will stay on if you put the gas pedal to the floor but it losses power and shuts off. I had drove the car a few hours from the time it broke down and it run great but i just dont know what happen

Hi,
Check the entire fuel delivery system.
DO NOT RUN OUT AND BUY ANYTHING YET! This was only the opening act.
All of the above systems are monitored by GM Powertrain Module (a.k.a. on-board computer). A diagnostic scan retrieves any inform related to the malfunctioning parts and tells you precisely what is wrong. Perform the scan diagnostic now.
Start the car and perform another scan. The reason we rescan and repair non-related codes after the engine is running is because sometime false codes can be triggered by the engine not running. Once the engine is running again the code present might cycle and turn itself off. You might say "if the engine doesn't run shouldn't it have a trouble code?" Sometimes conditions occur that will not be detected by the computer, e.g.,if the fuel pump fails the computer cannot detect the failure, so the engine doesn't start and the computer thinks everything is okay with no codes. If no trouble codes are present proceed to the next step.
If you have trouble using the code scanner or interpreting the codes click on the following link and use my access code (carrepair): Free Automotive Repair information for Users of a Code Scanner
I know that the above is wordy but I wanted to do more than just tell you that your problem is complex.
All the best,
Ben
