    Jerk when accelerating from stop K2500 454 Suburban

    Hi, sorry for the delay :D Yup! Had a problem in the 4l80e tranny. Apparently it wears the bore of the Actuator feed limit valve in the transmission valve body. This is a known issue in higher mileage trannies especially without oil changes. This causes 2nd. gear starts which was the bump I...

    Jerk when accelerating from stop K2500 454 Suburban

    Well, no change whether taking off in D or in 1st. Tranny doesn't even change gears when selecting manual 1st after coasting/braking to a stop so I assume its already in 1st gear as it should. Same jerk with manual 1st and D still persists. Actually after some testing it feels like it could be...

    Jerk when accelerating from stop K2500 454 Suburban

    Yep, that's the thread df2x2 I stumbled upon and got the slip yoke idea. good info there thanks! 99 Bourbon, no big lift there (yet). Previous owner has installed 1,5" block to the rear and had it cranked 2-1/4" in the front. With full tank it was like a pogo stick especially with shot front...

    Jerk when accelerating from stop K2500 454 Suburban

    No audible noise when driving, maybe a slight clunk when taking off. There's just this definite feel of jerk or sudden jolt when taking off after coasting or braking to stop (red lights). After touching the accelerator pedal it feels sluggish for 1/2 sec and then you feel the truck leap forward...

    PIC NEEDED C/K2500 Suburban 7.4 CALI Underhood emission control label

    Nice, apparently not available from GM anymore. Could anyone take a closeup picture of their 1999 454/7.4 Vortec K2500 underhood emission control label. I can try to have it reproduced in autodatalabels for example. Also if you know a source, please let me know. GM P/N 12561117 underhood...

    I'll check the joints. Also found some info to try changing tranny to manual low (1) in stead of D and see if that changes the jerk when taking off after coming to a stop.

    Jerk when accelerating from stop K2500 454 Suburban

    Hi, 1999 K2500 454 4l80 NP246 autotrack The truck is new to me and have been driving it for a few weeks. Problem is that when accelerating from complete stop the truck jerks. It almost feel like it's trying to start in 2nd gear and immediately changing to 1st. I've been wondering whether it...

    PIC NEEDED C/K2500 Suburban 7.4 CALI Underhood emission control label

    There was a definite shadow/imprint from the peeled sticker on the fan shroud when I checked it at home today. New sticker on it's way.

    PIC NEEDED C/K2500 Suburban 7.4 CALI Underhood emission control label

    Hi, I'd need info to pass smog, where to find the underhood emission control label? 1999 454 K2500 Suburban. Cali emissions. It's not on the air filter cover, valve covers or radiator shroud. Have yet to peel hood insulation to see if it is under there... Where you have yours in 1999 454...

    Euro style (amber turn signal) tail lights for 99 Suburban

    That's one good option Ms Swede! I'm assuming you are referring to these? What's the best place to get them? Do you use red LED's or just red bay15d bulbs? I'll have to wire the rears as the euro-us trailer harness conversion (which I need to do anyways since I'll be pulling a trailer every...

    Euro style (amber turn signal) tail lights for 99 Suburban

    Hejssan Svensson! I live in Finland, that's why the question. I need pass my DMV inspection when the truck arrives from California in the beginning of January 2016, apparently need the amber turn signal lights. Hey, why don't you sell me the ones you are changing out? :) I'll have to check...

    Euro style (amber turn signal) tail lights for 99 Suburban

    Hi! I've been searching for tail lights with European style amber turn signal indicators. Naturally ones with clear lenses would do since I can install amber bulbs. Seems to me these are hard to find even though they have been produced by GM for Holden Australia and suburbans in Brasilia...
