    Vortec engine problems

    Finally been driving the truck long enough to make sure it's fixed. I put the updated fuel spider in it and it runs great now. 2500 miles with no issues

    cruising issue, kind of like a violent hiccup, 96 silverado

    Any updates on this issue? I'm having the exact same problem. I just replaced my fuel spider because the truck would randomly die but now I have this issue

    Vortec engine problems

    I'll check it out. It just seems odd. Never had this before I messed with the spider. Also I forgot to not that it does seem to have a,slight hesitation right off of idle. Like if I tap the pedal a tiny bit you can feel a stumble but you can't really hear it too much

    Vortec engine problems

    Update. Replaced the fuel spider and the fuel pressure regulator. Intake was covered in fuel when I pulled the plenum off. It hasn't died since so I think that was it. But now I've got a random hesitation every once in a while when driving. it hesitates for half a second then keeps going. If...

    Vortec engine problems

    Truck died while I had a spark tester between the plug and plug wire. It cranked long and didn't fire. It had spark the whole time. So should I think regulator and fuel spider???

    Did a new coil and coolant temp sensor and it was great for about 2 days. It died again but this time it threw a p1351 code

    Vortec engine problems

    Well found 2 broken ground straps in the engine bay. The main ground from the frame to the cab and the main ground from frame to the block lol. Just replaced them. Im really hoping that was my issue. We'll see how this goes

    Vortec engine problems

    Thats a really good point. I haven't thought of trying that yet. I'll ask around for a scanner. And I just drove it with the new module and it stumbled for a second and didn't completely die this time. Side note as well, When I put the new fur pump in the problem went away for like 4 days then...

    The problem is so intermittent that testing anything is out of the question and I'm pretty annoyed. I'm 2 min from home with a new module and coil. I'll update soon
