I am new here, and I would first like to thank everyone here for all the great information that I have been able to use.
I have a "96" Tahoe, four wheel drive, four door with a L31 with about 180,000 miles. Last year I replaced leaking manifold gaskets, upgraded fuel injection assy. and replaced plugs wires and new distributor. After doing this I instantly got a multi misfire code. (Dist. set to 0 deg.) About eight months ago I replaced every sensor there is, plus new plugs, Taylor wires, Dist. cap, Ignition coil, fuel filter, Cool air induction, Headers, 4 O2 sensors, One catalytic convertor, Flow master muffler, oil catch can, Rocker arm adjustment, 140 amp alternator. Battery and cables. Runs great. But when I go to start motor, I have to just barley hit the key, and it starts with a high RPM of about 3000 to 3500 for about 5 - 10 sec. then idles down to 700. yesterday I went to start and it turn over for a sec. then starter would spin or whining sound and disengage. I replaced starter and motor turns over but will not start. I have not done any trouble shooting yet, thought I would see if anyone has had this problem and save me some time. Thank you for your help and your time.
Also if anyone knows where I can get a L31 Marine manifold? Thanks again.
