I agree with airpacker about the poppet's sticking. I have run
into this numerous times causing a flooding condition & a rough idle on cold starts. I have to mention though that in 99 vortechs they no longer use spiders. The injectors are now individual & run about $80.00. GM has a tsb out on this problem and claim the poppet's can be cleaned but you need to apply 150 lbs of pressure. (special gm tool) |
HOW ABOUT A 6.0 LITRE!
I had the same problem with my 6 litre, 99 2500 4X4. I took it to three dealers and each one said something different. Finaly when it died on one of the service managers at a stop light he agreed to reprogram the computer. Didn't help much and that was 2 years ago. By the way, what is the difference in the new 340hp 6.0 litres and my 300hp 6.0 litre? Can I buy a new "chip" to get more HP?
Thanks, Ted |
hey gofast, if you are refering to the 345 hp 6.0 in the caddy trucks, then no, they have different cams, pistons, and i belive heads to gain the power, a chip wont do it. I already checked into this.

actualy the 345 6.0 motor bumps the compression up
making it so you have to run prem fuel use same heads |
Have you guy's heard, (or tried) the HP Mass Airflow Sensor? They advertise them in Jeg's. I think they are manufactured by Granatelli Motorsports. $300+ I think. They say it takes 10 minutes to install. 15% HP increase. What do you guys think?
