    Cold start hesitation

    Yes you are correct, I will edit my original post. I have heard about the ECM reading the alcohol % incorrectly resulting in drivability issues. Let me do a little research and see what's available for the GMT900.

    Cold start hesitation

    I believe I've figured out my issue but I wanted to get a second opinion and also create a thread for future reference for others with the same issue. Vehicle: 2007 Suburban LT, 5.3L, 2WD Flex Fuel Problem: Delayed start when cold. Truck always starts, and idles afterwards, and will fire first...

    Great to know, thank you!

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    No worries man! I appreciate your input on the output shaft and trans info which definitely points me in the right direction. I'm going to do my homework on the T-cases and trans compatibility and see what makes the most sense. I'm hoping I'd just need a custom input shaft with the right splines...

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    He was on Powerstroke tv I think as well where they did another AWD conversion on a Silverado. This video only centers on the transfer case and changing the input shaft. I don't believe he talks about the 4L80 and what's been done to it.

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    Okay this leaves me with a couple of questions. The 4L60E AWD transfer case from the GMT800 is the NV149, which should bolt up to the 27 spline no problem. The AWD transfer case from the GMT900 is the 4485, that has the 32 spline input shaft for the 4L80. LT on youtube did a 4L80 trans swap on...

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    Yes you did say that, but it was a specific year no? I have the 5.3 Flex. I figured something would have to change to work with the transfer case. I'd rather modify the transfer case input shaft than touch the 4L60. Looks a million times easier to rebuild. Interesting about the blocks and...

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    I honestly do as well. I've driven in snow for years with RWD. The LSD makes a huge difference, and can do most normal things. I'm just thinking down the road, knowing I have the capability would open a ton of possibilities of use for my Burb. Here's the thing about the Denali's and Esky's. As...

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    They're $500 used, but don't the Denali's come with the 6.2's? Looks like a 6L80, not sure the compatibility of the splines on the input shaft. I bet it's the same with the Esky's as well. Hmm....

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    The issue is I do not want 4WD. Full time AWD. Why is that? Off the top of my head looking at numbers, we're looking at about the same cost as a supercharger. It's also about the same amount of work... Okay let me find out what the transfer case number is. Yes. A purely mechanical 60/40...

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    Is it a true AWD or the part-time 4WD with the axle disconnect?

    2WD to AWD Conversion 07

    I've been doing research on doing an AWD conversion on my '07 Suburban. So far there hasn't been any clear answers or a process for the GMT900 series SUV's although I'm sure it's almost identical to the GMT800. I hate the traction the RWD has with A/T's even in the rain so I'm going to put an...

    Cold start hesistation

    Update: Got the battery and alternator tested at autozone and they read okay. Today I was driving and the engine died, steering went stiff and I heard a loud screeching noise for about 5 seconds. Pulled over to the side of the road, tried to start it and it'd die almost immediately, very rough...

    Coolio, I'll give that a go tomorrow, thanks.

    Cold start hesistation

    Just bought a used 07 burb with 144k on the clock. 5.3L flex fuel. Truck started and drove perfectly fine but about 3 days ago ive noticed it struggling to turn over after resting for awhile. Once cranked over it starts fine and drives fine. Here are the things that have changed since i bought...

    Bazooka BOSE sub replacement, center console

    Yeah I was thinking the rearward portion has more room than the front/cupholder part.

    Bazooka BOSE sub replacement, center console

    I'm finally gutting my bose sound system in my truck. I have a 10" sub that I was going to build a custom box in the 00-02 location on my truck, but I was looking around and I found this guy right here. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_204BT6DVC/Bazooka-BT6024DVC.html I did some measuring with...

    Motor mount, slip yoke or Diff? Clunk!

    Interesting, I'll see if I can get that done, but I'll probably start at the yoke/diff first as the more I drive the truck and the timing of the thuds is making me think the yoke. The new mount I put on is stiffer than the OE and I notice the transmission shifting more, as well as more vibration...

    Motor mount, slip yoke or Diff? Clunk!

    Interesting, the RCA’s can cause a clunk like that? I replaced my traction bar and inspected them. They were tight, and the bushings looked fine but i didnt get in there with a breaker to really see how tight they are. Im probably gonna get it up on a lift and have someone sit by the...

    Motor mount, slip yoke or Diff? Clunk!

    Is your truck 4wd? Mine is 2wd and I don't believe I have diff specific mounts. It's my rear pumpkin that integrated into the axle.

    Motor mount, slip yoke or Diff? Clunk!

    So here's my dilemma. I've had a nasty clunk with my yukon since I bought it. Happens every time I got from P to D to R, every time I accelerate hard, every time the transmission shifts and every time I slow down. I've been putting it off but I've been slowly narrowing my list of what it could...

    Tracking down A/C issue

    Thank you for all the great advice. This was the type of quirky I was looking for. I'll change both valves/seals before I re-pressurize the system.

    My 04 Tahoe Build!! Updated.

    Not my style per say, but very clean! Definitely like the cluster, can you post more pics of the mods you did? I'm sure I'll find some inspo with the custom stuff.

    Tracking down A/C issue

    Interesting, I'll double check that thank you. Yes. I'm going to do this the old fashion way. Get a gauge reading of the hi/lo with the car off and with it on, with the a/c on. Then i'm going to recover the system, check vacuum, then refill with dye and track down the leak/issue.

    Tracking down A/C issue

    So I checked the compressor fuse and it was fine, and I swapped relays with the one beside it, and the compressor clutch is now engaging. It clicks on every 15-30 seconds or so, but still no A/C and the fans behind the rad aren't turning on. I ran it for a few minutes to see if anything would...
