I just picked up a set of AC Delco irridium plugs at Rock Auto for $40 for my '99. Gapped to .060 and my engine purrs. As others have mentioned, get fluids changed but be careful about a total tranny flush. Unless you know the PO serviced the tranny regularly, I would just drop the pan, swap...
I have a '99 Tahoe LT, 5.7L. It has a place for a second battery. I'd like to use it to drive a new audio system and use as a back-up for the other battery.
Is there a sticky or link on how to wire it up?
Thanks in advance!!!
Mine was easy ('99 LT, 5.7L). I had to remove the fan shroud, fan, belts. Four bolts on the pump. I bought a Bosch unit from Rock Auto for just over $50. Stealership wanted $379 to do the job.
Good info on the VIPER!!! As mentioned, I was able to figure that one out (with some help!!!).
Back to the 4X4 indicator push button switch with lights:
There are four total lights (N, 4H, 4L and 2H). I got under there yesterday (really hard to see the back of the switch) and couldn't see a...
Figured out the VIPER issue. Connector to the "antenna" actuating door locks had poor contact. Got the locks to work with VIPER fob. Discovered remote start feature was intact and that works too!
If anyone can shed some light on the TCCM and the indicator light switch issue, many thanks...
Thanks. I got up under there yesterday and found most of it.
"Clicking" is coming from the relays you mentioned AND what I believe is the TCCM (small stainless box under the dash with 9-pin connector).
Looks like PO had the Viper in it with a decent sound system. I found what looks like...
Not sure. The reason I say that is I'm using the Viper fob to open the truck doors but I haven't been able to locate it under the hood. PO or the dealer he got it from didn't have original GM fobs.
Anyone have a link to an electrical manual for our trucks? I have a '99 LT 5.7L.
I keep hearing a "clicking" noise coming from my inside fuse box when I start the truck. I looked under the dash and I can see a couple of splices which I think were made when the PO installed a VIPER alarm...
I just picked up a '99 Tahoe LT. 87K on the clock. Even though I've already had to replace the intake gaskets and water pump (as a precaution prior to a long distance move), I love this thing. I just installed a new set of Hankook DynaPro ATM RF10's on it ($400 WITH road force balancing) and...
Thanks...I didn't see your answer before I had the intake gaskets done. I hope my fuel system continues to perform as it is since everything is buttoned back up. No problems with injectors so far here in Michigan.
Hey TigerEyz3,
I noticed on your mods list you have the updated Spider assy. Just what is that and should I replace mine when I swap the intake gaskets?

Also, are there upper AND lower gaskets on my...
Thanks guys. I'll get rid of the coolant.
How much to swap the intake gasket at a local shop? I don't trust the dealer.
Also, forgot to add, I'm hear a "clicking" sound at my inside fuse box. Sounds like a dead battery "click" but not as loud.
Just bought my first one (LT, 4X4, 87K on the clock, 5.7L) and it's great to drive but I believe I have some common problems. Can anyone shed some light?
1) 4WD indicator lights -- Sometimes they light. Sometimes they don't. Right now I'm in 2Hi. When the indicator light is not on...
