    GMT800 rear end question

    I recently bought a 2002 Tahoe... within a week it began squealing from the rear end. Took it in to get a rebuild at a local shop. Had nothing but good reviews. Picked it up and he had filled it with regular ol' 80w90 gear oil. To my knowledge, these needed a 75w90 synthetic... He said...

    Exhaust rattle

    I just picked up a new truck, a 94 ecsb 6.5l At idle there is some vibration in the exhaust, which had recently been replaced with, I believe, a 3" system. I assume that its the larger dia pipe fitting tighter... What can I do about it? If I find the spot, what can I use to buffer it?

    No start/hard start, poor idle if at all, backfiring through TB

    This truck is the biggest heap of I have ever owned... and I have owned a lot of crap. Anyhow, went back to the dealer for diagnostics again. They said that the fuel pump is bad. I refuse to believe it. I put a brand new pump assembly in less that 5000 miles ago. I doubt that they checked...

    No start/hard start, poor idle if at all, backfiring through TB

    Replaced the EGR, the old one felt pretty good as its only a year old... but I swapped it for a new one since its under warranty. Nothing. still not idling for . I can get the RPMs up to about 2k easy enough... but once I try to keep it steady it just falls flat on its face and dies.

    *video* 92 Sub... Idle surging intermittantly, poor spray pattern, etc

    I sucked it up and took it to the dealer for a diagnosis... they said that the dizzy was bad. Put a new one in and it was good to go for a few hundred miles. Acting up again, with low power, stumbling idle at times but in general not having as much power as it should. Currently chasing down...

    91 350 idle while in gear problem

    did you ever figure it out? Mine has been acting up the same way. With the hood open and the air cleaner off, I can hear the TBI sucking air just before the idle shoots back up... yours do that too? I would take the air cleaner off and take off that collar looking thing off too and look at the...

    *video* 92 Sub... Idle surging intermittantly, poor spray pattern, etc

    Okay, fuel pressure is good. So the injectors arent getting sufficient voltage, which points to the ICM... I replaced that and now it wont even start. I put in a new ignition coil and nada... I replaced the plugs too since they looked a little fouled. sooty. Havent had anyone to help lately...
