    5.7 v8 rough idle, hesitation and shudders in reverse and drive only

    First off, I drive a 1998 GMC Suburban K1500 SLE with the 5.7 V8. Not too long ago I had the rear drums checked, front brakes replaced and a brake fluid flush. Since then, never before, for some reason I have the occasional shudder/hesitation while on the accelerator and a rough idle ONLY in...

    Engine knocking

    Im getting codes 31,32,33,34,41,43,51,52,54, and 55. No matter what the timing’s set at it knocks but it wasn’t doing that before I tweaked with the timing. I’m wondering if my ECM’s bad or something I know that’s an easy thing to blame it on but the motor’s only got 99k miles on it I’ve been...

    Hard/No start then runs fine

    I have been dealing with an issue that turned out to be a seized IAC valve causing it to bog down on decel or at a stoplight. It would bog down only for a few seconds, except at highway speed, then go right back to normal idle. It would almost sound as if it had a lopey cam in it. Since fixing...

    IAC Issue? Rough idle in park & in drive. Please Help!

    I have a 97 Sierra SLE 5.7L 157k miles. Just fired the truck up today after maybe a month of sitting. I took it for a drive and once I got to a stop light I noticed the truck was running rough while idling (I'm fully stopped pressing brake at traffic light). I almost thought it was about to...

    99 350 vortec rough idle

    I'm not any good at diagnosis, but my 350 vortec doesn't idle nicely, cold or warm. It kinda pulses(?) or it seems like it has a cam in a way, If that makes sense. Going down the road if seems to do alright, but as soon as it idles it's not nice. What do you fellas think? IAC, tune up, something...

    1997 K2500 454 Rough Idle, Loud Afterfire

    I have a '97 K2500 with the 454. Simply put, it doesn't idle right. When I start it up cold, it revs up to 2000 RPM, slowly settles to idle, and then either abruptly dies or practically dies before roaring right back up and going through it again. In order to keep it on I hold the gas slightly...
