    Surging and dying problems

    It's still doing the same thing and this is becoming a hardcase. lol Anyway, anyone ever heard of cmp and ckp needing timed with eachother? It's my brothers thoughts but I'm thinking if the ckp was merely replaced then there shouldn't be any problem after resetting the ecm because anything out...

    Surging and dying problems

    Once again, thanks guys. We've narrowed it down to the VATS. It has an aftermarket system in it and when I played with it a bit, and did some research, I'm pretty confident this is it.

    Surging and dying problems

    I tried to search the forums before I posted this but couldn't find what I was looking for. This is the issue: My brother has a 2006 Chevy Tahoe 2wd 4.7L His truck was surging real bad going down the road and it would intermittently stall out also and then at times die. He'd let it sit...
