My truck has been in the shop for a month now.
So during a snow storm I was driving my 2005 Tahoe with 5.3. The road was really rough and the highway running at about 30 vibrates a lot because it was compacted snow. Just trying to give you a little context here. So while driving all of a sudden my oil pressure needle spung around and the truck died. During the blizzard I could see the oil pressure wires where twisted together and slowing copper. So separated them and the oil pressure gauge worked again but truck wouldn't start. After about 15 minutes I tried it again and it started so I ran and died about 5 mins later. After getting it towed home, the next day I changed out the oil pressure sender and wiring harness. Also replaced the fuel pump relay as it has a burn mark on the side. Ran the truck for a little bit in the driveway and drove around my yard. Went down the street and came back with no issue. So I'm like I got it . My wife takes the truck and dies 3 miles from my house. After letting it sit I was able to drive it to a local shop. They replaced. Cam sensor, crank sensor, put a new fuel pump in it. They pulled the computer and sent it out. It came back the fuel circuit was heating up causing the pump to stop working killing the truck. I haven't confirmed that it's a fuel pressure issue as it doesn't seem they had a gauge on it. I got a computer flagship one and installed today. After the key relearn the truck started right up and left it running while I head home and get a ride back. Get back and the truck died right there and won't restart. Waited a while it started right up.
Spend a day cleaning all the ground and inspected the hardness. No code just cranks but doesn't start. It's now being towed to another shop that works with ls motors exclusively but what are your thoughts. ?
