    new tahoe feels slow as $hit!!

    What kind of mileage is it getting? It's a shot in the dark, but a screwy O2 sensor will make it run rich and make it sluggish. It won't always throw a CEL.

    98 k1500 5.7 starting issue

    I've had a few full size GMT400 trucks and every time it's been running fine and then wouldn't start it was the fuel pump. Do you have an actual fuel pressure gauge or are you using a scan tool?

    Android tablet as in dash audio, GPS and multi function display.

    Those look like stock gauges with LED's in them.

    Lets talk ball joints

    If he was wiggling the tire by hand and saw movement they're probably shot. Using a pry bar with the tire off the ground will put more stress on them and that is the proper way to check them. Living in Maine and our ty bumpy roads I have replaced many a ball joint. Moog used to be the #1 as...

    CB Radios

    I'll take one tomorrow. I thought I had one kicking around but I don't. I actually took my CB out because I never talk on it. I just programmed the 40 CB channels into the scanner so I can listen to them. I have it mounted on an over head shelf like LMC truck sells. Very handy.

    Un-cranking and repairing damage questions

    I wouldn't necessarily blame it on your crank. All of those parts would be shot at that mileage anyway. Uncranking it will be easier on your new parts though. Most of it connects to other parts you're going to replace so that will make it a tad easier to replace. I would personally...

    Adventures of my 'budget' Color-match grille (Lots of pics)

    I think the grill looks nice. I did the same color match job on my Tahoe but I started with a black grill instead of the chrome one. Did you hit it with some clear coat? That might make it last a little longer.

    1996 K2500 Diesel Suburban - What's this thing behind my grill?

    Your picture isn't the greatest but it could be the PMD. Open your hood and look for a one attached to the injection pump.

    Napa has a couple different ones. Make sure you buy the Delphi pump or you will be replacing it again soon.

    Police scanner

    A digital scanner is at least twice the money as an analog one.

    Police scanner

    I've had a scanner in my truck for almost 20 years so here is some advice. A scanner is extremely useful for monitoring all kinds of things. My personal favorite is a couple local construction companies. The first thing you should do is head over to http://www.radioreference.com/ and look up...

    Your electrical problem sounds like a bad ground somewhere. No idea about the lockers.

    New 95 2500

    Rattle canning it is a waste of time. Unless you're going to hit it with some frame paint like Por15 first you might as well just let it rust.

    Not able to see text/images in the text editor.

    It's because of the skin being used on the site. I believe it's a 3rd party skin and has a few problems with it. When entering your username and password the text in those boxes disappears as well.

    1994 6.5 turbo diesel won't start.

    I don't. Is yours leaking? Take it out and into a parts store. Also, not to try and refer you to another site but, http://www.dieselplace.com has the answers you're looking for. Most of those guys have forgotten more than I'll ever know about diesel trucks.

    1994 6.5 turbo diesel won't start.

    Check all the hoses coming from the fuel manager. There is an o-ring in the bottom of it that's known to leak. Depending on what style of filter you have it can sometimes be a bit of a bear to get the cap back on so it doesn't leak.

    So I just bought a dually.

    Jump the lift pump and open the bleeder on the top of the filter housing. Just because the lift pump is new doesn't mean it's working. It's controlled by the oil pressure sensor on that year of truck if I remember correctly. It could be a bunch of other things but if he really just changed...
