    2001 Chevy Suburban issue this is weird...

    Good to hear you figured it out. My 1988 dodge daytona had the fuel filter issue 7 years ago. Replaced the filter which is located in a weird place and that fixed the issue. As to the Suburban, before it goes to the garage, we will put a starter in it (we have a friend mechanic we use...

    2001 Chevy Suburban issue this is weird...

    Thank you. I will check it out. The truck is going to the garage on Wednesday. I can get it started but it's difficult. In the beginning its as if the starter does not want to turn. Then you wait 30 seconds and try again. It will move a little. Then you wait another 20 seconds try again...

    2001 Chevy Suburban issue this is weird...

    I have had several chevrolet tahoes since 1998. Due to the economy crash, we lost our 2005 chevy tahoe. In 2014 we bought a 2001 Chevy suburban. It now has 204000 miles on it, and it has started acting weird. First we thought it was the battery, so we bought a new one. Put that in. Well...

    Thanks will definitely get the kit and look into this. Probably will wait till it warms up a little and test the fuel pressure.

    Bought a 2001 Suburban, start problem when very cold

    Thanks. So basically what is happening is not enough fuel is getting to the injectors? Someone else told my husband they think too much fuel is, but how can the cold flood a vehicle? I disagree with that, I feel no fuel is getting there, even if I pump the gas pedal (tried that did not...

    Bought a 2001 Suburban, start problem when very cold

    Bumping thread. I hope someone might know what causes a gasoline engine not to start when the temp drops below 15 degrees.

    Bought a 2001 Suburban, start problem when very cold

    Hello, We bought a used 2001 LT Green suburban this past fall. It had one owner and was very well taken care of. Problem is when it gets below 14 degrees, it will not start at all. Around 14 to 15 degrees F, you can get it to turn over, it runs for a second then stalls. If you keep at it...

    Vibrations at 60 to 65 mph

    Thanks all for the feed back. I notice this not every time I drive but only some times. When it does happen, I am at 55 mph + and while I am accelerating to get to 65 mph speed limit it can start vibrating and carrying on till I let off the gas then it stops. Then when I accelerate again, it...

    Vibrations at 60 to 65 mph

    What can this be? We had bought a used 1998 LT tahoe last September and now I am noticing a vibration at 60+ miles an hour which gets worse the faster you go (speed limit on the highway in my area is 65 mph). This is making me nervous, I need to know what to look at as I don't want to have an...

    A/C Pro will it work for my 98 Tahoe?

    Hi Bottoms, I hope there are no leaks. Guess the only way to find out is to charge it. I know that in my 88 daytona, the compressor went in 2010 when the car was 22 years old. This truck is only 16 years old haha guess I was lucky with the Daytona. Of course if there is a leak then I will...
