#679 of 1497 2000 Silverrado 1500 hard to start when warm by bykehoun Sep 24, 2005 (7:29 am)
My truck has a 5.3 engine that starts perfect when cold but you have to pump the accelerator or hold it down to start when hot. Is there a sensor or something that I can replace? Can't afford the shop prices. THANKS!

Do you have a starting problem like if you drive to a store park for 25 min to 1 hr and then its hard to start? Try checking your fuel pressure regulator. Pull the vacuum tube off after driving a bit. If you get gas out of the tube then your FPR is bad. $40 part and 10 min to change. I just had this problem on my 00 with 55K miles Replies to this message: bykehoun (Sep 25, 2005 6:29 am)
#681 of 1497 slow or disfunctional windows by chevymann Sep 24, 2005 (12:25 pm)
Hello, I own a 99 chevy silverado, and some times my windows go up really slow, even stop some times.. The other day I rolled my window down, and it would not go back up. I drove all the way to work with it down, and then on the way home from work, I was just messing with the switch and it went up. I am half afraid to roll it down now!!! Anyone have any ideas????

Replying to: ryanbab (Sep 24, 2005 10:52 am) It starts perfect first thing in the morning. When it's warmed up it requires pumping the accelerator or holding it down. It could be the fuel pressure regulator. Can you direct me to the vacuum tube? I've never worked on the vacuum tube. Thanks for your help.
#684 of 1497 FPR by ryanbab Sep 25, 2005 (7:02 am)
See picture (sorry about size but its easier to see) its circled red. Its on the drive side of the engine. Just remove that hose that is on the top and see if gas leaks out. If so then its a bad regulator. A suggestion is after you drive your truck let it sit 15-20 min then check it. If you check it right after you turn it off you probably wont see any gas. Anything else let me know.   Replies to this message: bykehoun (Sep 29, 2005 9:50 am) fordhd (Oct 16, 2005 10:05 am) bykehoun (Oct 02, 2005 8:04 am)
#685 of 1497 Re: 8.1L Problems - Service engine/Reduce Engine Power lights [towcray] by caddguy Sep 25, 2005 (5:28 pm)
Replying to: towcray (Sep 03, 2005 12:46 pm) My truck has been have the same no starting and cutting off problems but the computer does not trip any codes. The problems are happening more often. The dealer keeps the truck for a few days and says "Could not duplicate the customers concerns when tested today". The service writer suggested replacing the ignition key because of the security system. Got a new key. Two weeks later it shut down and back up driving down the highway. Back to the dealer it goes.
#687 of 1497 leveling a 2003 Z71 ext cab by aaaaa Sep 26, 2005 (7:55 am)
I have read some other messages in regard to raising the front end 2 inches for free on a 2005 model. Does it work the same on the 2003 or do you have to buy the new torsion keys?
