Hello everyone, I have a 99 tahoe, old body style. Well I am not going to replace those oil cooler lines every 3 years because I am not doing a bunch of towing and I run synthetic oil. So I know there is a part or kit that can delete the oil cooler, however I can't find the part number...

Mine didn't show any codes at all and I was having the same issue. I cleaned my MAF, did a full tune up and ran a ton of fuel injector cleaner through it and now it runs like a champ!

Try cleaning your MAF sensor (BE CAREFUL!). Otherwise you can also put a ton of fuel injector cleaner through it.

You wouldn't happen to have a picture or drawing or link of where these sensors are? My truck just started to do this and it is kind of scary when you come up to a stop sign and the abs goes on right before you stop and the truck goes forward more than you expected. Thanks!

Thanks for the info on taking the grills off. Any idea why they would not be working in the first place?

Hello Everyone, I recently bought a 99 Tahoe 4 door, and I noticed that the roof speakers in the rear don't work. I am not that familiar with all the options with Tahoes/Yukons but I am also not an idiot with car audio. Are the speakers in the back only an option that the Bose stereos had? My...

I did mine with the help of 2 other guys. My truck had a full tank of gas -40miles. We didn't take any gas out but we used 2 jacks under the tank. The only gas we spilled was out of the lines when disconnecting it from the fuel pump. I am by no means a mechanic, but with some good directions...

Yeah I tried the rubber mallet thing a couple of times. I think the over 3/4 full gas tank takes away a lot of the vibration that could have made the fuel pump start up. Well one thing I would like to add is that the metal ring on top of the tank that holds the fuel pump down on my truck was...

Before everything hit the fan I was able to hear a very slight whine of the fuel pump when I turned the key before startup and then it would stop. I always wait for the fuel pump to stop before I turn the car over. I know what a fuel pump sounds like and I used to hear it only at initial start...

That is actually on my list of things to do also. I had searched the forums here and there was a person that had the same original that I did. He cleaned his MAF sensor and he had said his truck ran better than it ever did. I have never had to clean a MAF before but I know I have to be very...

Yeah I just called the chevy dealer and they told me which one is for my truck. My mechanic buddy got me a deal on a Delphi one through carquest for just over $200 so that is the route I am taking. I have sent my VIN of my Jeep to Jeep before and they emailed me a list of all the options...

I haven't checked the fuel pressure but wouldn't you think if the fuel pump isn't working that it would be the fuel pump? I used to hear it when I turned the key and now I don't. I checked the relay and that was fine. I am not looking to replace random parts, I am looking to replace the fuel...

I checked my under the hood relay for the fuel pump and that is fine. So I went to Napa to get a fuel pump, it was $216 and it is made by Carter. Out of curiousity I wanted to search for an OEM price because I think those are made by Delphi and I figure OEM "should" be better than the Carter...

So I bought a 99 Tahoe with just under 100K on it. I got it home and then the next morning when leaving for work, I pulled out of the driveway and gave it some gas and it kind of stumbles a bit but then takes off. Then by the next time I have to start out everything seems fine. The next...

I have a 99 LT that I just purchased with almost 100K on it. I have a similar experience but mine is a little different. When I start the truck up for the first time in the morning and go to drive away, my truck kind of hesitates as I am giving it gas. Then it will all of the sudden drive fine...
