I'm Awesome
1999 2wd 4dr Tahoe
Happened a couple months ago and brought to the shop, thought had it fixed.
I'm going to try to describe as best as possible, I didn't have a SD card for my video to take. Started up in parking lot, sat for a few seconds and died. Started up again and drove out. Driving home from work tonight it started to stall/choke out. It would stumble and you could feel it decelerate then the RPMs would drop to zero. Took foot off the gas and moved to the side of the road and bam, RPMs back up to speed and was able kept going. Did this 3 or 4 times (30 minute drive on section of free way with no lights less those from few other cars and nothing around but desert). A few times it would stumble but not try to die out. Also smell from exhaust sometimes is strong, maybe unburnt fuel(not sure what that smells like)
Has 420 and 430 codes with CEL light
security light is lit, but has been since i acquired truck over a year ago
Has new Delphi fuel pump
has new ignition coil, starter relay, fuel pump relay, die hard battery
within last 6000 miles new cap, rotor, spark plugs, wires, heater control valve, kn intake, serpentine belt
Have not had the chance to do the fuel spider upgrade yet
thanks for looking
