Hope someone can help - I will try to keep this brief but detailed:
FYI - 2001 GMC Yukon 2500 8.1 with about 105,000 miles - Vehicle has a Clifford Alarm with Remote Starter on it.
About a month or so ago started the truck with the remote start - the truck would not start - tried to start it with key still nothing - would crank but acted like it wasn't getting enough fuel. Changed the fuel filter - Ran great for about 2 weeks. Husband was at work started with remote start came out and it wasn't running once again. Kept trying after about 10 minutes of waiting truck started. Took it to repair shop....they suggested a fuel pump & filter (not sure if they even checked the pressure). Ended up paying 700 for a new fuel pump & filter. Took the truck to KY on vacation ran great for a whole week. Back from vacation husband was leaving for work and truck would not start again. Called tow truck - Tow Truck driver stuck key in and it started. Went in to get our stuff came out and vehicle had died. Restarted truck and it died again. Restarted truck and it spitted and sputtered when you pressed on the gas. Ended up calling tow truck driver back out. Repair shop had the truck from Tuesday to Saturday - ran codes, cleared codes, drove truck - said the codes didn't come up with anything particular that would be causing this. And he said he drove it a couple times without any problems. Picked up truck on Saturday - drove it to the gas station right next door - drove down not even a mile and it died again!! Called repair shop they sent 2 of their guys down about 20 minutes later. Stuck key in it and it started right up drove truck home and around neighborhood the next day no problems. Monday morning truck would not start again. About 2 hours later it started (kept truck at home - unreliable). Took truck in to repair shop that night to have codes scanned again. Died on us less than a mile from home going about 30 mph - Died again on the hwy going about 55 - truck restarted all by itself after it died on the hwy (demons?? or angels??). Repair shop scanned codes once again nothing in particular. WHAT ARE WE TO DO???? Any ideas??? HELP!!!! PLEASE!!!!!
