    Front Fender Well Inspection Covers?

    My replacement LMC inners have these attached. They're tacked on.

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    Gave everything a look over and took it for a drive. No check engine light still so the map is either good or intermittently good. My kid came by and I took him for a test spin and to get some gas. It ran rough and had no power. Like foot to the floor, didn't want to downshift, 1/4 mile of...

    First time replacing intake manifold gaskets

    OP, when I was first learning my old man taught me to write information on the inside of my hood. That way I could pop the hood anytime and be able to see firing order, the rotation of the distributor, part numbers for oil filters and oil capacities and other specific information if I forgot. It...

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    Can the computer tell if my cat is clogged up? I took a temp reading before and after the cat on the pipe and they were pretty close. Its the stock cat I think. I ask because the exhaust smells clean as hell most of the time but occasionally it smells kinda foul. Seems to be smelly when it...

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    I have. Not running it held vacuum. I also activated with a mighty vac while at idle and the engine fell on its face. I was for sure it was opening it at idle causing it to have a vac leak. Symptoms seemed to match. Did have to replace the EGR solenoid a while ago because it tested bad. I...

    Engine won't get up to temp

    This probably won't help your problem but I've heard of a 'cold weather package". Wonder if any of those items would help. My suburban spent a lot of its life in Canada/Alaska and it came to me with the smallest radiator I've ever seen in a square and a ridiculous looking 3 blade fan.

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    What did I say? It's a win until its not.. Back to issues. Went on a quick trip for some errands. 10 minutes of driving then sitting in a parking spot waiting on the wife. I'm waiting sitting at idle, foot off brake, for 3-4 minutes. Suddenly the idle drops and the engine runs rough. Check...

    You could just move your front hangers or am I missing something?

    Transmission lowering?

    Dang it, I just realized I didn't come back to this. I did end up taking out the spacers and putting them back in OEM location. I don't notice any differences. When I was doing research on this I found something that I didn't see often talked about. Lots of people were talking about issues...

    Yukon Grizzly Locker MUST READ

    I put a grizzly in the back of my Wrangler and liked it a lot. Decent road manners for an automatic locker on a short wheelbase rig. Pretty quiet. Barely heard a noise out of it. It was super predictable. If I was on the gas then it was locked, if I was off the gas then it was unlocked. YMMV

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    Yesterday took it for a 30 minute drive with some big hills and whatnot. No lights, no issues. Another 30 minutes drive later with no issues. Calling it a win.

    Benefits of longer leaf springs and suspension lift vs blocks

    Chuck the body lift and go with a 4" lift instead. Alcan or Deaver probably have the best leaf springs. Or talk to ORD about getting one of their kits which are finally tailored to a square body. There will be a few things extended that won't need to be anymore like linkage for transmission or...

    85 K20 Suburban rear shock question w/pics

    If you're using the sleeves it should be the same width as the bushing. It kind of helps keep you from over squishing the bushing I think.

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    Took it for a spin. Warm up then 2 miles to the store. Idle in park 5 minutes waiting for wifey. Drive to different store a mile away and CEL light comes on in the parking spot. Idle dropped a hair maybe but I left it running 5 minutes then drove a mile home. Acted fine the whole way. Code 34...

    91 burb runs terrible in reverse

    I got a chance to check off a few things. On flat ground dropping into reverse with no throttle it starts to rolls back fine. Engine loads like normal. As soon as I give it tiny throttle it stutters, like plugs not all firing. No pops or backfire. I give it heavy throttle stabs in reverse and...

    91 burb runs terrible in reverse

    I've been picking through the big issues on my Suburban and now I'm down to the smaller ones. My issue is when I drop it into reverse and give it any gas it bucks and snorts like it's running on less cylinders. Its fine sitting in reverse while I'm waiting to back out. It only acts up when I...

    2.5 Rockwells is anybody running these

    Bummer, thanks. Good info.
  21. Jawzjeep

    I'm new on here and have a few questions.

    Its worth whatever its worth to you. Check for cracks around the steering box bolts. I think the SPID (Service Parts identification label) is the only place on the truck to find paint codes. Put up a pick and somebody might know or have the same color combo. I like the 400 if you're looking...

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    Last weekend was too busy for me with 2 thanksgiving's and my birthday so I didn't get much anything done. I finally got a chance to mess with it this weekend. I checked my coolant temperature sensor first and the wiring was good and solid but the ground was questionable like I mentioned...

    Code thrown but not for my year/MAP issue

    Thanks. I didn't question the 15, it was the 34 Im confused about. Here's where some of my confusion started. I'm realizing now that they're just stopping at 87 even though the Suburbans and the Blazers go to 91. Probably should have read between the lines a little bit more, doh! The CTS is...
