    Help! C.Converter/o2 issues

    Chip, can you confirm that you had a CAT code and not an 02 code, but you replaced the 02 and it erased the CAT code? I have the same code saying a Cat is bad and I'm about to buy a new cat. A new 02 sensor is much cheaper than even a universal cat!

    How hard is it to replace the cats?

    Following up here... It's going to be the same price ordering two universal cats and having them installed as me buying the whole magnaflow assembly and installing it myself. Am I at any disadvantage to getting universal cats? Any suggestions?

    Can you help me with OBDII code: P0430 ?

    I have a scan tool that tells me volts for each sensor. Any idea what should they be reading?

    Can you help me with OBDII code: P0430 ?

    Is there any way to test the 02 sensor and see if it's bad rather than test the cat and if it's good assume the cat is bad?

    Who has the final solution for DRLs?

    I picked up two regulators from radio shack today for $4. I first hooked up a multimeter and the drls had spikes up to 15.5v. Hooked up the regulators and it's stuck at 12.2v. Hopefully 15 minutes of work and $4 keeps my LEDS fresh!

    P0300 Battle

    bummer. I'm not familiar with the earlier stuff. Does this help? http://troubleshootmyvehicle.com/gm_fuel_injector_4.3L_5.0L_5.7L/spider_fuel_injector_1.php I'm somewhat talking out of my ass here, just letting you know what I went through. On a 2000 if you got a new spider it would have...

    P0300 Battle

    I had the same problem...ran fine except at idle. It ended up being a bad fuel pressure regulator. I have a 2000 but if you pull the vacuum off the regulator you should not smell gas. If it does, replace it. Don't wait a year like I did, I'm now getting a bad cat code because it ran rich for...

    How hard is it to replace the cats?

    I've been celebrating for two straight weeks after fixing my random misfire and a new code popped up. It looks like I have bad cat from neglecting the misfire for so long. Around town it drives fine but at highway speed it bogs a little. Order ONE universal cat and replace it the side that is...

    Who has the final solution for DRLs?

    From what I've read, you're very lucky! 3157 LEDs are what I have in right now. I do have a spare set because I figured I'd burn through these, I'm just hoping there's an answer out there and I can use them after everything is good to go.

    Who has the final solution for DRLs?

    I've never had a problem with the 4114 bulbs, but the only 4114 bulbs I can find are the plain jane yellowish white. I've done LEDs. Loved them, but one burned out in less than 2 weeks and is flashing and the other has about half the LEDs out. I'm about to try one of sylvania's 3157 that...

    who can drift their hoe or yuk or esky?

    I've owned my tahoe for 4 years and never even spun EHH (waynes world gun rack voice) tire on pavement. Snow is another story! I drive slow, homey. Amidoinitwrong.jpg?

    front end pops

    Are you fully locked turning but driving really slow and the front end kind of "loads" up then pops like the tires are slipping then "loads" up then pops again? Maybe 2 or 3 times when turning a 180?

    HIR bulbs

    Man, everywhere all I read was "next best option to HID". I read about the "real" ones being out of production. But these are apparently the new "real" ones. I guess there are some fakes ones Amazon and Ebay. I ran my car for about 5 minutes tonight with the brights on. Still wasn't impressed...

    HIR bulbs

    I currently have 55w HIDs in my depo lows and am looking for a bright bulb for my highs. I'd give my left nut to be able to do to my highs what the HIDs did to my lows. I did some research and it looks like everyone was saying the HIR bulbs were badass. I just bought a set from...

    random misfire code/hard start/skip

    Holy F'n S you guys. My tahoe now purrs...it literally PURRS. I spent about 8 hours and 50 minutes of my 9 hour work day yesterday looking on the internet for fixes. Some guy says pull the vacuum hose off the top of your fuel pressure regulator. If it smells like gas it's gone bad. Well, I...

    How to change the Fuel Filter

    Hmm. I pulled it while it was running and it died within 10 seconds. I figured it would have ran longer than that but just figured, welp, let's do this. That must have been my problem.:)

    ABS Light

    I had a wheel bearing go bad that kicked on the ABS light. I replaced it and the light turned off. About 2 weeks later it came on again and I was like, great, the other side now? nope, one of the abs sensors was really finicky. I just straightened out the wires and reinstalled it fixing the...

    Backup Camera Install

    no pic, but I'll see if I can get one for you. I've never seen what other cams look like but I could see the very tip of ball on my hitch so it was awesome hooking up my boat. Really easy. cut plate to fit hole. drill hole in the plate for cam. run wires through hole and tighten cam to plate...

    Backup Camera Install

    I have the keyhole style cam. See the squarish hole right above the receiver? (random google pic) I cut a metal plate and covered that and put my cam in it so it's flush mounted. Works perfect for me.
