    No power at acceleration in 1st gear

    I think a new timing chain is the Best Option. I've checked the timing chain (tuning the crankshaft by Hand in one direction to tdc 1st cylinder and looking at the Rotor in the distributor and then turned it back in the other direction "counter clockwise" ... 12 degree off :(...i think the chain...

    No power at acceleration in 1st gear

    There's a clutch inside the torque converter? I think i need an extra Tool for the tech2 Analysis...? A stand alone pc Software is my favorite. Okay... I've asked Google: so is it right that i'm maybe in the limp Mode? Could that really a sign of a bad torque converter without any trouble codes?

    96 Tahoe.....stalling and no power

    I think the injectors are okay because all the spark plugs are dry and there's no gas in the oil. I've tested two fuel pump assys...it's the same: it's not holding the pressure. A new reguulator is ordered...I will fix it on saturday.

    96 Tahoe.....stalling and no power

    No...the voltage is really good all the time...:( It's weird...i've checked the fuel pressure again: with ignition on and engine off the pressure goes to 60psi and falls immediatly down to zero.

    96 Tahoe.....stalling and no power

    I've changed: - the distributor (complete assembly with sensor, cap and rotor) - a new fuel pump with filter First i got the code P1345 (ckp and cam sensor not correlation...or so) so i set the timing to something between zero and -2 degrees (not so easy with this programm) and the code was...

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Servus, I've not measured the pressure while cranking...:( what should it be? The distributor cap is from acdelco. The TPS is at 0% when closed. I've tried it with the unpluged MAF and air temperature sensor...nothing...:( But there is something that i've forgot: The last weeks when myy chevy...

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Ok, I've installed an other fuel pump...59psi at the schrader valve Aaaand: no fuel at the injectors and no start..:( The chevy wants to start with starting fluid. The first time i used too much starting fluid, so it backfires one time thru the intake..:(

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    Hi east302, You're right: there was pressure about 60psi. I've tested it with another fuel pressure gauge from a friend (he has an professional one and i cant find mine)...his fuel pressure gauges reads 50psi at ignition on and engine off. While cranking it goes up to 52psi...:(

    I've double-checked the fuel pressure... After turning the ignition on the fuel pressure is at 50psi......i think that's too low..:(

    96 Tahoe dies while driving and won't start

    The rpm, ect and tps are okay. Now zero rpm, temperature it at 17 degrees and tps is at zero. I've never done a compression test. Fuel pressure is near 55psi (too low now...)? I've spark on every cylinder. I think that compression (bad or worn timing chain) has nothing to do with the...
