    Thinking of selling...advice needed

    Thanks for all your help, folks! Great crew out here, as always. Good news and bad news. The good news is that I sold the Tahoe just north of $7k. The bad news is that I sold the Tahoe. That was easily one of the best vehicles I've owned. Reliable, fun to drive, and easy to work on...

    Thanks willxfs! Much appreciated. Sounds like you've got a nice ride! You know as well as I do that the hard part is keeping 'em that way. [emoji6] Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Thinking of selling...advice needed

    Ha! Yeah, I've heard that same line selling vehicles in the past. I always have to fight the urge to say "How much you got?" but I couldn't pull it off without cracking up. Also like the ones that ask me to give them a carfax. I'm not a dealership, man! Those memberships cost money. Asking...

    Thinking of selling...advice needed

    Hey east302, I really appreciate your comments! I think we're on the same page, because I went ahead and listed it for $9k to see what happens. I spent a lot of time hunting through eBay, autotrader, autolist, etc... for comps, and arrived at the same conclusion you did. I've already received...

    Dang! I knew I hosed that up! I'll try again. Links were working when I tried them before publishing. I'll try something different. Thanks east302! Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Thinking of selling...advice needed

    Hi All, With some other things that came down the pike, my old friend may be sold soon. I'm looking for some assistance on arriving at a good sales price. Where do I look for data on the prices these actually sell for? I know I can find 'sold' prices on Ebay, but I see a lot of crazy...

    Diagnosing P0300 code & Camshaft Retard Offset Adjustment Using Torque App

    Jerry, I am also using Torque Pro, and with the screenshots in the Posts #1 and 2, it just started working after I added the new PID and the new 'Realtime Information' gauge that points at the new PID. Admittedly, the first time it wouldn't work for me, because I had messed up one of the hex...

    Diagnosing P0300 code & Camshaft Retard Offset Adjustment Using Torque App

    Thanks for the response! I suspect that you're right, given my tahoe has a little over 150k on the counter. I think it's still the original distributor, so is probably somewhat worn. But still curious as to why a fault code isn't being thrown, giving me a CEL. With this much CMP retard offset...

    Diagnosing P0300 code & Camshaft Retard Offset Adjustment Using Torque App

    Hi All, I know this thread is a little over a year old, but I was curious enough to try this CMP retard calculation in my copy of TorquePro. I get a value for CMP, but it's -4.5 degrees nominal, and varies from about -4.4 to -4.7 during driving. While it's a number in the right order of...

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Hey all, realized I never closed this one out. I cleaned up the tank and surrounding area as east302 suggested and let it go. Fuel smell has not returned. I think it's good to go. Thanks all for your help! Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Intermittent rough idle

    Yeah, I'll check for gear play when I pop the distributor cap off. That's a good idea, and I'm guessing I'll find some play. I don't think it's ever been replaced, but I could be wrong. I bought this thing at 117k, so a lot happened before I got it. The previous owner kept good records, so...

    Intermittent rough idle

    Dang! I knew SOMEONE would come back and confirm my fears about a bad wire. ;-) I appreciate it all the same. I'll start with the cap and rotor (along with plugs and wires) and see where it goes. Will also check various grounding points and see if something has vibrated loose. I've fought...

    Intermittent rough idle

    Thanks for the reply! This rig has about 150k on the ticker. The intake gasket was replaced about 25,000 miles ago, because it was leaking. I'll check it again...hopefully it's not jacked again. The spider has already been replaced with an MPFI injection kit. This was done not too long...

    Intermittent rough idle

    Hi All, I have a 99 Tahoe, 5.7L that is starting to give me pause lately. Like its year namesake, 99% of the time this vehicle runs very smoothly...I use it as a daily commuter and it has been very reliable. Still gets around 16 mpg if I'm good to it, and runs very smooth. but... Every now...

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    That's a fantastic idea. I may try that this weekend, unless I get a chance before. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Hi All, I found a Delphi pump locally and snapped it up. Installed it last night (much cussing and scraped fingers), but got it in, along with a new fuel filter. Fuel pressure jumped right up to a little over 65psi on key-on, then settled in right around 60 while running. I think it runs...

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Yeah, I'm starting to think along those lines. Fuel pumps are sort of a bummer to fix, so definitely want it to last. Going to see if I can find one around here tomorrow. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Ha! Yes, definitely. $300 does make one want to look for alternatives. Thanks Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Yes, good point. Has a lot to do with environment (hot climate), letting tank run low, fuel quality, installation quality, bad day at the fuel pump factory. Was just looking for general comments. Thanks Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Solid reasoning. I thought about that too, but 18 years is also a long time for GM suppliers to change. The manufacturer of the original pump is not necessarily who makes it today, especially because manufacturers are always looking to save money somewhere. This was my reasoning for asking...

    Fuel Pressure issue?

    Hi All, It's been awhile since I've come back to this, but the truck has been running fine since I worked on it last year. ...That is until today. Cranks, but no start. Cannot hear fuel pump whine at key-on...no fuel pressure. I think it finally gave up the ghost. The fuel pump relay...
