    P0306 - Remains after tune-up

    Intake gasket was replaced a couple years ago - been looking into the conversion kit to MSFI spider... but wanted to rule out fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, vacuum leaks, etc. I was hopeing to find another culprit as the spider can be pricey.

    P0306 - Remains after tune-up

    Greetings - Looking for some common suggestions on fixing an issue I have. On my 98 K1500 5.7, I was getting a P0306, and a very few times a P0430. I replaced the Cap, Rotor, Plugs (Double Plat) and Wires with AC Delco Professional stuff, also replace the fuel filter as well. The truck runs...

    Blower - Direction needed

    Getting a little cold outside, and my heater in my truck rocks! That thing is a blazing furnace - however, all of a sudden it is working intermittently. When it works, all speeds just work fine. When it doesn't, no speeds works... all of the other functions/buttons work (recirc / A/C). You...

    Plugs - AC Delco, yet what type

    It seems like every shop online or in-person has their own variation of what OE plugs are. I bought me a set of 41-902 AC Delco Double Platnium plugs to put in this weekend. I went to a couple parts stores, and they told me to get iridium plugs as OE. Yet, RockAuto recommended platnium as a...

    P0430 troubleshooting assistance req

    On my 98' K1500, I would sometimes get a cylinder misfire code on cylinder 6, but it would go away within a day and stay away for some time. In past couple weeks, I have got the P0430 code twice. I live in a state where emissions are required, so I dont think those anti-fowl plugs would work...

    Hard / Sticky Left Turn during first 180 degrees in the morning

    Wow - interesting, I was looking at flushing it, but sounds like it may be normal under cold weather (granted how annoying it is). Maybe flushing will allow more fluid to flow, though I down power steering fluid thickens when cold

    Hard / Sticky Left Turn during first 180 degrees in the morning

    My truck on a few occasions has had almost a lump feeling when trying to turn left when first driving the truck down the road. You can push threw it, and then it is fine. A minute later, that symptom goes away. I typically back out of my driveway, and then need to turn left down the street as...

    Driving Lights vs Headlights - Difference?

    Is there truly a difference between driving (daytime) lights and low beam headlights? On my 98 K1500 I can barely tell a difference. Should there be, and if so, how drastic?

    98 K1500 5.7 - To the floor sometimes just to downshift

    I have a 98 K1500 Heavy Half with the 5.7 Vortec - Love the truck, though a stiff ride with the spring over. The truck likes to shift early in my opinion, around 2,000 rpms or lower when just driving normally through the city. In order for it to stay high, your foot almost has to be on the...
