#4 of 37 Won't Stay Started by vhazel Sep 25, 2006 (5:01 am)
I have a 2000 Express van. Lately I have had this problem: Go to start the van and if fires up for about one second then quits. Try and try it will not start. Dealer at first said it was the fuel pump. Replaced it. Months later still doing the same thing. It like the security system is telling the car not to start. After I let the van sit(1/2 hour to overnight) the van starts right up. I know of another Chevy (Suburban) that does the same thing. Starts, stops, won't start wait till later and then it will start. Can anyone help? Replies to this message: westdeer (Oct 28, 2006 12:16 pm) onthegokaren (Dec 11, 2006 8:51 am) earlydon (Dec 11, 2006 9:01 am) onthegokaren (Dec 11, 2006 12:10 pm) and 3 more...

I am having some problems with my 2001 Express. Driving and coming to a up-hill stop the van once in a while stall and won't start up right away. To restart it I have to turn everything off and let it sit for 30 seconds and then it will start up and drive again for a while. Only stalls out once a day. I check the computer for sensor codes that might be going bad and the only one that came up was a Crankshaft possession sensor (Code: P0335). But my mechanic did not want to replace it until he knew it was that for sure.   A neighbor suggested replacing the fuel filter. I had my replace about 24K miles ago.   VanOwnerAZ Replies to this message: earlydon (Nov 09, 2006 6:16 pm) spotlessns (Jan 24, 2007 6:12 pm)

I am having the same problem with my 2000 chevy express 2500, 5,7. Sometimes the heat and fuel gages, the speedodemer warning buzzer go dead driving or stopped. I have had it in the garage 4 times recently and everything runs fine and can find no problems. If you or anyone finds the answer let me know.

Replying to: vhazel (Sep 25, 2006 5:01 am) I think I found my problem. In the fuse block, the ten amp fuse marked gauges was loose, and fuse would move sometimes. This fuse covers 7 items including keyless entry, day light driving lights and some others. When I would bump fuse gauges and daylight light would go out. If you start the van and pull the fuse it keeps running. I built the fuse stub up with a little solder, working fine.

Replying to: vanowneraz (Sep 25, 2006 9:02 pm) I have a 2002 Chevy Express that regularly stalls. I've had the fuel filter replaced. When the stall continued, I took it to the home of a mechanic that the salesman recommended. He put a scanner on it. Did notice that there was a low reading on the Camshaft sensor. He apparently reset it, and as we drove it for several minutes, we could not get it to stall. But the stall was back the next day and happens just about every day, normally occurs after the van has been driven somewhere and sits for a while, then driven again. After stalling, it generally starts right back up. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Don Replies to this message: spotlessns (Jan 24, 2007 6:12 pm)
#12 of 37 2001 Express stalling by abiworks Dec 09, 2006 (7:24 pm)
I have a 2001 Express that cranks fine in the morning. Once I drive it for a little while, stop, and get back in to start again, it won't start. I jump it off and it crank right up. We have changed the starter, battery and have had the wiring checked? Any suggestions. HELP
