    NEW P/S pump, nothing at idle or below 15mph

    Any reccomendation for a good pump? I'm just going to return this one and get maybe an ACD or GM Genuine from rockauto if not. I figured it'd be a good pump because it was $250 out the door

    NEW P/S pump, nothing at idle or below 15mph

    if it was air bound, wouldn’t I have nothing at all? I don’t know much, so take that with a grain of salt. What would be some alternate ways to bleed it? What I did was I just topped it off and went locked to lock idling and it was fine for like 5 miles and then I had nothing at low speeds/idle

    NEW P/S pump, nothing at idle or below 15mph

    I’ve got a 99 Tahoe 5.7L. I have put on 2x New Carquest pumps (P/N #988748CQ) I did one new pump, had the issue described in the title. I chalked it up to being a bad part and just slapped on a pump from a junkyard. All was fine until that blew up doing donuts (stupid i know). I figured I’d try...

    Rumor..

    My 1999 Tahoe has never had an awesome brake pedal with the engine running. When the trucks off and no vacuum supplied to the master, it feels like a firm pedal. I've heard a rumor that these trucks have a sensor that decides how much vacuum the booster gets and when it goes bad it overboosts...

    Backfiring, Bucking and stumbling

    Fixed the issue by totaling the thing. Compression was 180-195 on all cylinders Fuel Pressure was 8 psi My catalyst does, weird. It's got a texan accent. Real scan tool said o2 sensor. o2 sensor didn't help.

    Touchy Brakes

    Sorry for the long response. After thinking about it I adjusted the rear drums (they were both crazy out) and bled the abs (because I jumped the gun on the Master Cylinder) I have a brand new pedal! Some idiot re-welded the backing plate holes shut so you can imagine the frustration.

    RPO codes

    My tahoe's glovebox sticker is all smudged up and I need my rpo codes for brakes and an axle replacement coming up soon. I tried going to my local GM dealer and asking for its sheet but they only go as far back as 2003. That's great if I have an 03 but my Tahoe is a 99. Is there any way I can...

    Touchy Brakes

    I've got a 99 Tahoe LT 4wd 4dr with 4 wheel antilock brakes (currently not working). When I press the brake pedal, nothing happens until the very end when the brakes grab violently. At low speeds my passenger rear wheel locks up. I went on Identifix and they say it's either a BPMV (Brake...

    Backfiring, Bucking and stumbling

    I've got a 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe 5.7L 4wd 4l60e and it backfires at any rpm. I started with the basics; fueling, timing spark, and found everything was in spec. I'll put together a list of new parts and their brands if I can recall them(Don't get mad at me for throwing parts at it, I had these...
