    Misfire on new motor

    Yes. Get the motor to TDC on the #1 cylinder as explained. Drop the dist down making sure the rotor points at the #1 tower. Most caps have the cylinder numbers on them.

    Misfire on new motor

    Something is really wrong if the wire isn't reaching. Get #1 at TDC by pulling the#1 plug and turn the motor over by hand. Put your finger in the hole. As you get close to 0 on the timing, air should rush out. Then drop the dist in when the 0 lines up. Otherwise perhaps the timing marks are off...

    Misfire on new motor

    I'm curious as to what you find as a solution. I've been having misfires for a year and have changed everything. Spark gap at .045 was worse than .060 for me.

    Misfire on new motor

    I think you have to have your foot on the brake at the same time your raising the rmp. Should cut out at 4k.

    Help with Distributor

    I got a new one online for $50 with the cap, rotor and sensor, All aluminum. People will say they are cheap Chinese knock offs, but imo everything these days are made there and just re-branded. So far, I like it.

    What did you do to your OBS GMT400 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yeah, I thinks it's the brass terminals. I don't know why our trucks eat these up? I had several from different manufacturers and they all corrode inside prematurely. I have yet to try the AC's though.

    I just did my diffs with Amsoil 75w90 severe. I used both rtv and a gasket. Probably the most important thing to do is to torque the bolts down to give a nice even hold, equally all around. You may want to pick up a new rear cover from summit racing. It was $25 and came with new bolts and...

    The dancing gas gauge :(

    Could also be the "hummingbird" effect from these gauges. Mine vibrates also. Its is caused by the dampening oil evaporating out of the stepper motor and the pwm signal that the ecm sends. In the link below there is a detailed explanation and a solution if yours is a gauge issue...

    New 246 Xfer Case 2dr Tahoe

    Hmmm to be honest i'm not sure if there is enough room to swing it around like that on a regular jack. If there is, it wasn't obvious enough to me to try it that way.
