hello all , i had an issue a year ago with my tahoe i started it one morning and it had a hard miss and a code for random missfire . since i have bought it i have been playing catch up on maintence from previous owner i have replaced cap rotor plugs wires and has new fuel pump and and fuel filter. the previous owner said it had a newer engine from local dealer in it . however stuff i took off didnt look new ...anyhow today i got a compression tester to make sure i have a solid foundation, i am having issues with trying to do a compression test ,i took the duralast battery that was in tahoe and got a new one under warranty ( battery dead , truck has been sitting for almost a year) and i installed new battery in my sierra today and took the old battery from the sierra to crank the tahoe over for the compression test however i dont have any power in the truck no interior lights ,nothing when i turn the key(battery has 12.56 volts) . i took the battery out of my saturn just to rule out a bad battery , same thing no power . i checked fusues under the hood all ok .i also checked ground and the fuse panel in the dash on driver side. the tahoe didnt have this issue before i parked it?? any pointers would be appreciated
if the compression test comes out ok , i have read that intake gaskets or the injector spider are common issues on these vortecs would i be better off just doing the lower intake gaskets and the spider at the same time? just to save me from doing either down the line..
