    It was boush sensors and the code went away after they were replaced.

    Black smoke

    I’m going to try to make this as detailed as possible in order to give the background history about my vehicle. I own a 2002 Chevy Tahoe with a 5.3 engine. I’ve been experiencing several different problems but I’ve corrected most of them. It started with a misfire in cylinder 4 and 8. 4 just...

    Power loss

    So the value cover gasket has been fix. The oil was leaking on the 8th cylinder spark plug which cause it to misfire. Changed the spark plug and issue resolved. Thanks for the info for everyone.

    Power loss

    Even if it’s been leaking for awhile now? I’m also going to start with replacing the spark plug wires. I’ve replaced the spark plugs about 2 months ago.

    Power loss

    Yes, that cat and muffler has be changed. I think it the leak I’ve found from the value cover in the left side.

    Power loss

    I’m thinking the misfires are from my leaking valve covers. Getting them fixed asap!

    Power loss

    The check engine light was on prior to the cat and muffler installation. One of the codes it was reading at first was due to a clog cat.

    Power loss

    The O2 sensors are new and the cats are new also. I went through a tank of gas in less than 24 hours.

    Power loss

    I’m not sure what that means exactly but I had it installed by a shop.

    Power loss

    There’s no engine code but the service engine light is blinking. The scanner from Auto Zone didn’t pick any up. Not sure why. It’s definitely a problem. I filled up my tank about 4 pm yesterday and ran out of gas 10 am this morning.

    Power loss

    I have a 2002 Chevy Tahoe and I just replaced the exhaust system with a maganaflow. The problem I’m have is that I’m experiencing a major power loss when I’m accelerating after being stopped. Any idea as to what may cause this?

    Engine swap or rebuild.

    I’m not totally sure but I want enough to tow my work trailer when necessary. I’m not trying to drag race in a suv!

    I’m fully committed to the whole process of redoing everything on this truck. The transmission has been rebuilt about a couple years ago. I’ll be looking to pay someone to do this job for me. I’ll be doing the brakes(21 Silverado upgrade), stainless steel brake lines, cat back...

    Engine swap or rebuild.

    I currently have more than 371,000 miles on my engine. It runs strong other than the lifters knocking. I’ve replaced things like the alternator, starter, water pump, and the rear mail seal has been done before. I’m looking to add more power.
