    Noisy IAC, No start; fuel, IAC, or?

    It may be worse than I thought. Motor comes to an abrupt halt, shudder and shunts when cranking. Sometimes complete stops then continues cranking. Then runs... Even had a shunt/shudder after what I think to actually be a running motor. Almost seems like a total lockup. Very crazy acting. Thoughts?

    Explain the caster/camber kit. How to install?

    I need new UCA bushings and I don't understand what needs to be done to install the camber/caster kit and which one should I buy.

    Fuel gauge issue, where to find... and other Qs

    The damper fluid or the actual motor. To be a bit more clear, there is a supposed fix for the gauge by adding damper fluid, but I can't seen to find the right stuff. Or I would like to, or rather prefer to if the price is right, to replace the motor in the cluster. The fixes may not help my...

    Noisy IAC, No start; fuel, IAC, or?

    GF's 99 Yukon has been developing a no start issue. Not sure if it's low on fuel (gauge issue, another thread) or if there is an actual issue. It does have a code for one of the CATs and idle's a bit off. One time I actually showed up with a gas can and it fired right up, another time (after...

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Im sure I can fix the software and it's the least of my worries at the moment. As long as the backup holds up I am happy to fix it later. Im just concerned about this coming back is all. What do you think of the plug when you read it?

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Just as I was about to go out and pull the plugs, it occured to me that I do not trust what ScanXL is showing for all the misfires. Why would I trust it for the codes? Sure enough, codes did not match. It was one again cyl 3! Changed just that plug and once again runs like a dream... Im...

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Thanks Sun. Ill get the plugs changed out and posted as soon as I can. Im going to reinstall the app and see if I can get some trustworthy readings. Hopefully soon I can find my fuel pressure gauge. Im thinking maybe weakening fuel pump. We will see.

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Just checked it with Tourqe Pro on my cell and the RPM reading is spot on. Like I said, the app. So now what?

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Maybe I should explain more how it feels; most of the time it feels fine with just a slight miss here and there. But sometimes, it's crazy missing and hesitation with massive loss of power. If I floor it, it can get up to speed pretty well. Slower seems worse as well as going up bridges (my...

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    I thought that's what I did. If not, how do I do it? No arching. ---------- Post added at 07:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:08 PM ---------- Okay, well I officially no longer trust this app. Shows current misfires all over the place. Often they match each other in numbers, yeah...

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    How do I see current? Had roomy prime the pump while I was nose deep in the TB, no change. If anything, the longer I held it open the less I could smell it. Now what?

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Unless Im reading it wrong, doesn't it say Im misfiring on all but cyl 1? For the fuel smell check; running or no? It has been fairly hot today as well as not having the cover on the air box. I imagine that would explain the temp. I will have to rent the tool to do the back pressure...

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Random frame capture. Not sure if I even trust this crappy app anymore tho (I was getting misfires with the truck OFF).

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    It does seem to resemble that, but it doesn't do it all the time. I've never had a misfire from a a cat that was inconsistent.

    Misfire AGAIN P0300 and P0430

    Well the Yukon is acting up again; original thread here. This time it is not pointing out a specific cyl. Only have; P0300 - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected; and, P0430 - Catalyst System Efficeiency Below Threshold (Bank 2) Seems to be every startup now, and then...

    HOW TO: Fix strange wiper behavior (PICS)

    Yes, this IS the FIX just as everyone described here. Mine were completely random, stop, work fine, stop, not speed up, all kinds of stuff.

    How to clean up/restore rims?

    Search is coming up with aluminum brightener. Is that right? If not, link to product?

    How to clean up/restore rims?

    In all honesty, they don't look as bad as they do in the pics. The flash or maybe just the phone itself brings out every imperfection 10 fold.

    How to clean up/restore rims?

    I have a set of American Racing rims that came with the 96 Hoe. Looking to try and bring them back. Any recommendations?

    Thorough carpet cleaning?

    Ah, thread revival. Well I did forget to post back. At the time I wasnt able to find any Simple Green and decided against PP. So I just decided to try some purpose made stuff, and it worked great! Still takes quite a bit of work and is kind of pricey, but it does the job very well!
