The Yukon has been stalling out for what I thought was a loss of power. Recently found out that the battery was not the right size, so I bought a new Super Start 34/78 EXT tonight.
* Cold Cranking Amps: 800
* Cranking Amps: 940
* Reserve Capacity: 115
* Length: 10-3/4"
* Width: 6-7/8"
* Height: 8"
Took it out around the block after installing the new battery and it stalled. After it stalls it becomes tough to start. I was pretty sure I had narrowed it down to an electrical issue, especially after the load test on the old battery. It still could be an electrical issue... Basically what happens is the trucks acts like it is flooded. It starts to surge and the RPM gauge starts bouncing around.
Here is what I have already done.
* Cleaned the throttle body
* Can of Sea Foam in a full tank of gas
* Changed out air and oil filters
* Filled her with Q TorquePower 4x4 Full Synthetic 5W30 Motor Oil
* New fuel filter
* New battery
No codes are showing up when hooked up to a computer at the auto parts store. The alternator was also checked and everything tested good. Why is this thing stalling out on me? Will taking it to a dealership shop help me troubleshoot the problem?
What is the next thing to check?
