The coolant temperature is normal for the 4.3 - 262 cu. in. V6 motor. I'd try an inexpensive thing first. Add a 16 oz. plastic bottle of 3M Fuel System Cleaner and a 12 ox bottle of isopropal alcohol (dry gas) to your fuel tank.
If that doesn't correct the problem I'd suspect something is amiss with the EGR valve (sticking open) and or the coolant temperature sending unit that allows vacuum to reach the EGR valve. If the motor runs at all the electronic ignition must be OK.

almost sounds as though your catalitic converter is going bad causing the exhaust to clog. I have 2 blazers, 91', and a 99'. have never experienced that particular problem. Here in Ft.Wayne Indiana, we manufacture the 4.3 manifold. To my knowledge, the 99' manifolds do not have the EGR, so I dissagree with some of the information supplied by another answer.
