Truck won't start by mpikchik
Jul 23, 2006 (1:35 pm)
I have a 1996 chevy silverado 5.7. My problem is I just replaced the fuel pump 3 days ago. now it won't start again. If I put gas in the throttle body it will run till that gas is gone..and if I take off the hose the pump will shoot gas out. so could it be a bad fuel pump again or the throttle body or what?..please help!!

I changed out the alternator this weekend and it didn't help. the voltage is still not stable. I am afraid i may have to take it to the dealership.

1998 Z-71 engine missfire by pstone
Jul 24, 2006 (6:26 pm)
I have 98 z-71, the engine seems to be skipping or missing every once and a while while at idle. then if you are driving at around 35 mph or so (when the engine is not in much of a strain) it skipps and misses but if you ease down on the throttle it stops and does what it is supposed to. I have replaced the distributor cap, rotor, and fuel filter, and not long ago I replaced the fuel pump (10,000 miles ago). I'm out of ideas, anyone ever heard of this?

Replacing Fm-Am stereo by wgreen
Jul 24, 2006 (8:38 pm)
Have a 2006 Silverado 1500 work truck that came with the AM-FM stereo with no CD player. How difficult is it to change this unit to something else?
  Would I be better off buying an AM FM unit with CD player from GM parts or going with an aftermarket unit?
  I read in the owner's manual that warning chimes for headlights,seat belts etc. come through the audio unit.
Anyone know it the chimes would still work if I used an aftermarket unit?
 
thanx

It sounds like u covered just about everything about the cooling system. The only things I could think of would be to check for blockage in the heater core. U can feel the hoses and if the discharge is cold then u have found the culprit. Also check all coolant hoses the same way. If that doesn't fix it Red Line has a coolant additive that claims to drop 20 degrees in the coolant. I think it is called water wetter.

I agree..... check the heater core. You might need to have the system pressure tested in order to find the problem.
