    Rough idle and no power when engine cold

    Only on gasoline and when engine is cold (outside temperature 60 or more). If i switch to LPG runs fine, if i switch back to gasoline it runs rough again. This until engine warms up; then runs fine either gasoline or LPG. thanks

    converter locking problem?

    The problem seems self-fixed. I only had a visual inspection under the steering column and a check of the brake switch. I also charged the battery.. :Insane:

    Braking issue

    1998 4x4 350 vortec tahoe Hi everyone! Here is my new problem: at low speeds, the braking effect is not homogeneous; at higher speed (exiting the freeway for example) the steering wheel shakes. I'm thinking about a different thickness of the front rotors. Front rotors and pads have 15000 miles...

    converter locking problem?

    no big thing! it was just 12 inches of water; down some pics. So you assume that water entered the vehicle and reached the wires of the stearing column? hosting immagini upload immagini gratis

    converter locking problem?

    thanks, I'll check asap. more notes: - it happens either in the temporized wipper or single wip - same behavior with the cruise off - it started acting like this after I drove on a flash flooded road

Many times also the cruise...
