    Dumb question 95 c1500 4l60e

    ok gents here’s my dumb question of the day. What sensors from the engine feed into the transmission controller? From my understanding the only values I can find is the readings from the tps on the throttle body.. Reason I’m asking is I’m about to do a full engine swap on a 383 stroker (finally...

    Serpentine belt replacement

    Yeah I double checked for you-955k6 is the belt number I'm running with the 100 amp with ac without air pump

    Spider Injector Comparison

    Delphi is good equipment. Delco is oem, which means before gm will rebadge a product, it has to meet there quality assurance. I agree that some aftermarket is better than oem( no one beats fel-pro for gaskets... period) delco products are usually my preferred way to go as I know they are good...

    Serpentine belt replacement

    Most likely you need a 955k6 belt. If you had the 120 amp alternator which most vehicles didn't come with you would need the 968k6 belt. That belt number will cross reference with every major distributor out there.

    Warm start issue

    The tbi is actually dead simple and easy as heck to work on, just the fact that most of them are 20 years old things wear out and gaskets degrade. Wheelman had some good pointers though- the injectors do NOT interchange nor do the bases between the 305/350 and the 454. Follow the instructions...

    Starting Issue -- truck sits A LOT

    No risk to damage to the tank. They used poly tanks in our trucks unlike older model steel tanks. Half tank sitting for a while yeah your running some condensation risks. If you keep the truck in your garage where it's in a semi stable environment you don't have to worry as much.

    98 Yukon ECM fuse blew

    sounds more like you have a loose wire somewhere, or a wire bumped up against the exhaust and shorted out for a few seconds...

    Warm start issue

    could be a good posibility. The plug wires over time get solidified from heat and fuel vapors/oil/gunk and can cause issues. Also- the rubber grommet can degrade, and the air filter assembly if not seated correctly can cause a short on those four wires.

    Starting Issue -- truck sits A LOT

    I didnt empty it prior, I dumped two bottles in, and ran the dog snot out of it to empty the tank. When I put the truck into storage now for deployment, I dump a couple bottles of Stabil in it, and fill the tank to the brim. When I get back from deployment (like I did last year) I dumped two...

    Starting Issue -- truck sits A LOT

    Same stuff. I've used it before on my last truck when it sat for nine months when I was on deployment and it helped

    Power steering trouble

    ATF according to the dealerships I've dealt with is what they recommend for some reason on their power steering systems. I've talked with three different mechanics and they said a lot of times when they replace them at the shop they fill the system with atf vice power steering fluid. Not sure if...

    Warm start issue

    Grab the ac delco tbi rebuild kit from amazon. Cost me 12$ three beers, a gallon carburetor cleaner can, and a little cussing getting the injectors to reseat (lube the o-rings with a small amount of atf....) but was well worth it

    Starting Issue -- truck sits A LOT

    It's a 98- spider injector not tbi wheelman. I'd say dirty fuel could be causing it. Our ethanol fuels today absorb water like crazy if you let it sit for more than a couple weeks without putting fresh fuel in. Shelf life on modern ethanol fuel is only about three weeks before they start having...

    Warm start issue

    Almost sounds like a vapor lock scenario. If one injector is spraying and the other isn't sounds like heat soak we used to get on old carbuerated engines.. bad injectors maybe? Maybe vapor lock in the injector pods? I pulled the injector pod apart on my tbi and the orings and small filters were...

    Is this normal? Slight vibration idling in Park

    It's just your engine telling you it's still there and is still running. They like to remind you every now and then to see if your paying attention lol
