Tahoe died in reverse

[Squirrelsmith]

Its threatened to do it before but never quite died. Once i start backing up, from a stop, it died afrer a 5 or so feet. Fuel filter is new... im suspecting i could use a new fuel pump. I can only assume mine is original 1998 with 200k miles.

Any other ideas?

That is what fuel pressure gauge and fuel pressure test is for. Could be numerous things. How old are the rest of the tune related components? Vacuum leak?

My 96 two door Tahoe did that once or twice and it ended up been the transmission. I wanna say it was the torque converter but don't remember to be honest w you.

I really wish I had my white 2 door 96 Tahoe right now. I really miss that beast.


Then I see this just now.

Transmission is the first thing that came to my mind.

Transmission likely. Especially in my case. Mine will sometimes act like it wants to die. I just feather the gas when it starts to stumble. God knows I've replaced everything but the transmission. And with that, I've jinxed myself. LOL Happy Friday!

Looks like a great deal.

Looks like a great deal.

He texted me more pics and I could not believe how clean it looks. I don't see any dents but I do see a couple paces where the white paint has flaked away in about a 2" square area on each of them. The leather seats are in great shape with no sight of any of the driver's seat known problems. This Sport edition looks like my old 96 rig.

He is a little over 2 hours away and I am trying to schedule a time when I am off on Sunday or Monday.
