Throttle adjustment
This may be old news to some but it's new to me. I never could figure out why my hoe was so slow or dragged off the line. I checked everything and cleaned everything. But it always had a delayed response when I pushed the throttle. The other day I watched carfix and it mentioned a product called...- PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
Okay so I've narrowed the problem down to a heat issue under my hood. It seems that every time my truck runs for a prolonged period of time the fuse box and the battery area Under the hood Get extremely hot. So hot that when I tried to take out my battery and took off the bar across the top I...- PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
Ok well I feel stupid. Finally fixed the problem! It was the altenator of all things. Would have never figured it out. Went down to get a load test on the battery. Well the orielly guy said the battery was fine but found it odd that the alt was a 60 amp, lol. So while it was running he put load...- PUGLIA

Weird Tire Wearing and Weird Steering Response
Check your wheel hub. Jack your front tires up. You can do them individually. Grab the top and bottom and see if you can get a wobble or play. If so your hub is bad. My tahoe used to skate as well. Easy test to see if that will solve the problem before you go down a rabbit hole with your front...- PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
Cleaned the junction box and replaced the fuses. Started fine for a week then today out of the blue same problem. Anyone think it could be the lock cylinder? Or should I just bite the bullet and replace the ign switch? -----PUGLIA------ PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
Ok I am pretty sure I figured it out. I have been having a problem with my stereo where it would turn on but with no audio. I would turn the hoe off then back on and boom I get sound. So I figured out the radio amp fuse is right next to the ign fuse that I thought was the problem. Both were...- PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
Ok this may be retarded but I checked the Ign fuses and they were fine. But I went through them one by one to see if pulled it gave me the same scenario as when this stupid crap happens. As I was pulling them I noticed a slight corrosion on the fuses. I pulled a 20a fuse from under the hood and...- PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
I was reading it from my dash for the voltage. I checked the wires but they look fine. No corrosion on the posts. The battery is a year old maybe a bit older. I'm losing my mind on this one. It's so inconsistent. It can go a day without doing it 2 or do it then a few hours later do it again. The...- PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
Ok no loose wires.... But I did notice that my voltage meter was at a 9 when it wouldn't do anything this afternoon and when it does start its at a 11 or 12 so I'm wondering if you guys might think the positive wire is corroded or burnt up? I am still at a loss?? -----PUGLIA------ PUGLIA

Weird battery/ ignition prob?
The ignition switch is what I was thinking but a guy recommended looking at the solenoid connections to see if the second battery gave enough arc to jump the loose connection. But it recently happened and I tried the jumping method and nothing. So I was wondering if it could be my key wearing...- PUGLIA

02 hoe little jerks
Ok, pretty puzzled! My hoe has started a little jerking to the left. I have 33" dynapro mt's and they are pretty low. I noticed it really when it was wet out and thought it was a little hydroplane cause of the tires. Now that It has done it a few times in the rain, I am now sensitive to it but...- PUGLIA

TB air bypass plug and egr delete?
I'd like to know exactly what you did with the vacuum lines. As for the bypass plug. I have not looked yet but I read a tbs that stated there is a hole in the butterfly in the TB. GM actually made a plug for it. Depending on the size of the hole it uses a red or a yellow plug. I think it was...- PUGLIA

TB air bypass plug and egr delete?
Has anyone had this done? I was reading a TBS about a plug for the TB air bypass hole on the butterfly. It said it fixes problems with slow acceleration. I replaced the pcv valve with a fixed orafice. But was wondering if anyone had done this or had it done to their hoe. Also has anyone done an...- PUGLIA
