    Patch?or stock?

    I agree it looks like a patch. If oem, it would be inset with a lip under it and screwed down. So it would not be snagging anything loaded into the bed. Possibly have a gasket to keep dirt, noise and fumes from coming up through it.

    Question of body types Suburbans and Tahoes

    Thanks. Yeah they have grown. Just being behind and then beside the newer Tahoe I saw gave me pause as to the real difference in them. Mine had the 5.7and 60e tranny ( coughed up and lung and had to have a rebuild.) It had a )2 sensor that would not stay reset, and when I found my 88 cheyenne I...

    95 350 Doesn't Like Low Speed

    Yeah that rotor didn't look good IMHO. Their cheap so replace and yeah brass teonal in the cap would be a positive. I did see that white power coating on those terminals. So a scrape or replace it also.

    Idle problem

    Try spraying wd40 around your vacuum lines to see if it runs up in idle, if so where the spray was last would indicate a leak, hose off or cracked hose.also around the base of the TBI spacer, and TBI base. Eliminate some simple issues It could be inconsistent fuel flow, like filter or dirty...

    Question of body types Suburbans and Tahoes

    My early childhood recollections, late 50's and 60's of these vehicles were 2 door, 3 door and early 4 doors "boxes" called Suburbans. Somehow as I got older I heard of "Tahoes" and pictured them as smaller vehicles. Now I acquired a 97 Tahoe and my original picture went out the door. So when...

    fuel pump relay 98 5.7

    Schurkey, that for the limp home mode. Had a kia that went into limp home but I ran about 1/4 mile and died then had to restart and repeat process. That was no fun. Dealer had to replace comp.

    Sold

    Yeah could do that. But payday is a few days away. I'll have to wait and see if you sold them by then. If you get an offer I'll understand.

    Chevy Truck Legends

    Darn! I have owned 5 Chevy trucks, a 55, 62, 69, 97 Tahoe and my 88 I have now. None bought new. Only new truck was an 81 f150 (don't hate me) that I drove until 1998. So I don't qualify for legend status. But missing the 73-87 grouping for a straight run on Chevys.

    Hood Won’t close all the way

    If you got just the cowl and install it onto yourhood the process could have changed the fit. By heating it (welding) or pressure on center with it on uneven surface.

    Hood Won’t close all the way

    You purchase just the cowl or a full hood? Try the original if you got a full hoof. Then you should be able to judge if the new has an issue.

    Parasitic drain

    Couple of other thoughts come to mind... Other vehicles I've had the glove box lamp would drain. Also lamps on visors for the mirrors. If so equipped. Maybe clock on radio. And a silly loaded question was aux lights ever installed or strange non OEM wires here and there. A po may have added then...

    Hood Won’t close all the way

    Hood warped? And hinges well lubed? These came to mind when you said nothing hitting and latches and bump stops adjusted.

    Low voltage

    Mine just melted the ac pulley on my 97 6.5 Tahoe locked up. It did ruin the belt though. Have to buy a bypass pulley while searching options. Used this as part payment ony 88 Cheyenne. I would check the idlers also. As there should be enough ooohump to move that belt.
