    Engine wavers?

    My thread above, when I said wavering, I guess I meant sluggish, like it's not getting enough fuel (which we knew that much already). When you accelerate too much, engine light flashes. When you try to start it, it sounds like it's not gonna start as if it were on E (but it does start). We've...

    Engine wavers?

    So I've posed about the fuel pump problems we've been having, but it's started something new recently. When accelerating, the engine sounds like it's wavering? Could it be related to the other issue we have, or something diff? We're fixing to drive from OK to TX, so we're kinda concerned about...

    ECM going out?

    It'll crank, but won't start. Husband cut an access panel for fuel pump, and before he messed with anything, we tried to start it, & it started right up. So we're guessing maybe there's a short in the wiring somewhere. A couple times we've noticed when accelerating, the engine kinda sounds like...

    2nd fuel pump in 3mos

    Well, after changing the pump, it still won't start. Cranks, but won't start. You can hear the pump kicking on tho. When it started going out this time, we could get it to start maybe once a day, that's it. Hitting the gas tank hasn't worked. Couple Times when tryin to start it, it sounded like...

    2nd fuel pump in 3mos

    I have an 01 with 230k miles. We put in a new fuel pump in January, and it just went out again. Jc if the pump is a common thing to go out so much on Tahoes? We've had the engine light checked, only had one, a lean code for O2 sensor. Other than that, no problems rly (knock on wood)

    2001 Chevy Suburban issue this is weird...

    With ours, we would try to start it & it would turn over but wouldn't start, sounded like it was out of gas. So my husband changed the fuel filter, it started. Kept getting clogged somehow. Then it got to where he had to bang on the fuel tank before it would start. So put in a new pump & works...

    Cruise control not working

    I'm really not sure. Never really paid attention to them, other than noticing the blacked out lenses. But I do know we don't have standard headlights, except for high beams. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Cruise control not working

    Also there is an orange wire sticking out where the gear shift meets the steering column. My husband was looking at it one day & it just broke. But we don't know what it goes to. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    We have an 01 & we had HELLLL hooking up an aftermarket stereo.Once we figured out you have to bypass the factory amp (otherwise the new stereo won't work) we ended up taking it to a shop & had them fix it for $100. The panel under steering wheel was just one big cluster#$%& of wires. But we...

    Water pump or bearing/pulley?

    Over the past week or 2 the low coolant light has been coming on. We put coolant/water in, and next day or so, light is on again. The past couple days we've had to put some (yesterday my husband put in over a gallon before he drove it & couple miles later it was starting to get hot) in at...

    question! Looking to buy aftermarket amp

    I have an 01 Tahoe, and we have an aftermarket stereo (200watt Dual double din). When we got the Tahoe, it already had some Boss speakers in the front doors, and Kenwood in the back doors, and then a Kicker subwoofer in the very back. Idk the wattage of all the speakers, but we aren't sure what...
