    starting issues

    yeah that would be ideal, but i think there are about 5 or 6 different modules in out trucks that all communicate with the PCM. So I'm not sure what effect, if any, that would have if you bypass it.

    starting issues

    So this week has been a disaster trying to get the hoe started. Everyday I had at least one difficult time starting it, and I even had to get a ride home from work one day. Met a guy through a friend of a friend of a friend, who was a GM mechanic for 30 years. He came over and hooked up his...

    GForce

    I've got a 99.....and I don't see it as a waste a money since they offer a 100% money back guarantee.

    GForce

    I have read all the praise in the threads here about Black Bear, and I am 99% sure I will have one done, but I am exploring all options. Anyone familiar with GForcechips.com?

    starting issues

    Thats a good question and I never really thought of that. But I could see a sensor or ignition switch going bad before a key would. That is, if a key CAN go bad. I'll look into that.

    starting issues

    Sounds like your problem might be of a different type. The issue we are having the motor would crank but would not get any fuel. I did a little networking, and through a friend of a friend I obtained from GM a step by step and diagram of the passlock sensor replacement and PCM re-learn...

    starting issues

    so I guess I spoke too soon. I went about a week and a half with no starting problems. Then today it wouldn't start. So I turned the key to the on position and left it there. The "security" light went off after 4 minutes, and I turned the key and it started right up. So what do you think...

    AC Blower Speed

    Nikel, please post pics...pics are always good! I have a similar problem as well, but what is even more frustrating for me is that the rear A/C on my 99 4 door blows good cold air, but the front blows warm and not strong. Blower soudns like it is blowing hard, but you hardly feel it sitting in...

    starting issues

    I haven't had any starting issues since the work I did that I mentioned earlier. Its been about a week now. The first thing I will do is pull the ignition switch and passlock sensor the next time it happens.

    starting issues

    I didn't have a chance to tear my column apart today, but i will definitely keep you informed as to what I find this week. I would have no problem bypassing the security as I have never even had the remote for it.

    starting issues

    2 things.... 1. what is the passlock sensor and where is it? 2. now that you mention the security dash light, i remember mine did come on once or twice and then it went away. don't remember how i got it to turn off though. OK I just found a thread on Chevrolet Forum...

    starting issues

    Dude I am in the midst of dealin with the same type of issue on my 99 4 door, 169,000 miles and it is incredibly frustrating. You'll see these threads pop up once in a while and there always seems to be different solutions for each of them. The part that sucks is that the truck will run...

    where does seafoam go

    Yeah I kinda figured that. I bought the truck 3 years ago with a bout 145,000 highway miles, and since then I have put on almost 25,000 NYC/Long Island miles. Even still, 169,000 is STILL 169,000 miles! Ya can't tell me there's no carbon in there! I'm just gonna have to monitoring the mpg's...

    where does seafoam go

    Just Sea Foamed for the first time, 169,000 miles. Brake booster vacuum line, gas tank, and crank case. Not all that impressed. I got one good puff of smoke as I was dumping it in the vacuum hose, and very briefly when I restarted it after 25 minutes and then put about 30 miles on.

    Sea foam???

    yeah i'm a little skeptical about putting it in my crankcase as well. doesn't seem to be a definitive answer on when to change the oil after seafoaming. i have a can i'm just sort of monitoring everyone's results before i dump it in. thinking of just doing gas tank on my 99.

    Spectre CAI?

    It really seems simple to fabricate a CAI or "smooth air" intake yourself. Any thoughts on just losing the flexible plastic pipe from the throttle body to the MAF sensor with aluminum duct? add a decent filter to the stock box and maybe cut open the side of the box facing the fender to open it...
