    Replaced Fuel pump and now can't pump gas into truck. What is wrong?

    Sounds like a issue with the filler neck. Might be a ball valve in there or something could have been damaged when you siphoned with the tube. Might do some reading on how the filler neck works or if the filler neck has any type of roll over safety valve.

    WOW A complete twin turbo set up with intercooler for the 5.3 Tahoe, everything included and put on your door step for only $2200? This sounds tempting as heck.

    Good price ? for a tahoe ssv LT ? flexfuel (non AFM)

    Thats not a Previous City or Police vehicle or prior pursuit vehicle. Does not have dual batteries, Likely also does not have the oil cooler. No municipality would put a Luxury Tahoe into service not even for a county Judge to drive. Tax payers are typically not cool with luxury cars being...
