    help

    do you drive around with 4wd on regularly? your transfer case shouldn't be driving your front diff when its in 2wd so with the whole truck floating in the air it shouldn't be doing anything with the front diff to be making any noise up there. well im only familiar with the ones that actually...

    Engine reeving

    what kind of revs r you talking? if the idle air control valve is going it could randomly jump to around 1500 and our stall out. if the tps is getting fidgety it could sense throttle movement and increase the spray in the injectors. if someone has already been messing with it and failed to...

    Can Someone Please Help Me With Headlights!?

    if they are facing really far in the wrong direction yes it possible but i would think you have the headlight buckets reversed or upside-down to be that far off. or maybe the bulb isnt seated correctly. as the buckets and everything are slightly angled for these trucks if i recall that...

    98 Yukon Engine Squeal

    definitely could be one of the accessories causing the issue. does it do with the a/c on or off or both? get the engine warmed too full operating temperature. pop the belt off and check the alternator power steering and a/c for shaft play. in and out side to side every direction you can...

    P1351 after replacing ignition coil and icm

    i hated having someone touch my 97 and my 94 in this regards because so few people actually know how to do it properly. had a shop do my 97 once after the 3rd distributor died and they fought and fought it. fixed it in 15 min when i got home after they tried to tell me the same crap. its...

    P1351 after replacing ignition coil and icm

    unless whatever is causing p1351 is stopping p1345 from coming up your timing is spot on. last post i remember reading said p1345 was gone and p1351 was back. p1351 has nothing to do with timing and you only have a 2° deviation from 0° where its supposed to be befote p1345 is set. 1500 rpm is...

    P1351 after replacing ignition coil and icm

    regardless of the reader the timing needs to be checked at 1 rpm range and only that rpm range. if your not at that rpm range within a very small window which i believe is the stated above 1000 rpm or maybe 2000. if you check the timing anywhere outside of that it is entirely up the ecm where...

    Improving the steering stability 1997 4X4 2 dr Tahoe

    you only suggested chinese tires so i can only assume they were the cheapest thing you can find testing for fitment or something. with torsion bars its basically like having a single rate coil springs your basically riding around with them almost bottomed out with the keys cranked up. those...

    Improving the steering stability 1997 4X4 2 dr Tahoe

    so im assuming your misspelled cummins and you have a diesels now or there's something im not aware of. anyway you haven't mentioned doing the idler or pitman arms. you suggested the steering box seems ok but didn't mention those. bigger taller tires definitely wont help as your adding more...

    4 wheel drive

    they used the thermal front axle actuator for quite a while and are known to fail. they will either just stop working or start popping fuses. also yours has push button 4wd and that dash switch is a fail point also.

    Lower fan shroud

    couldn't have asked for a better descriptive example. wouldn't be the first time ive seen those bolts missing as its a typical spot for a bolt on numerous vehicles and years. dont know why but bolts there tend to rust hella quick and will snap when removing them.

    RESOLVED - Stripped out the cylinder head bolt hole while replacing valve cover, what now?

    most helicoil kits are designed to have a bite after they are actually inserted. there's a few different versions from a typical spring style look to a full thread insert. i have never used any type of loctite on a helicoil as the normal type has a chance of the loctite getting on the inside...
