1992-1999 Chevrolet Suburban: Power in 1999 Chevrolet Suburban going crazy?

Thu, 09 Sep 2021 23:39:06 -0700

Okay so I have no explanation for this. In short bought a new battery. Then even with that the power in the car goes crazy like it was unable to hold a serious charge. But if I let my truck idle for 10 minutes or drive for an hour it stops. I dont get it.

1992-1999 Chevrolet Suburban: Vibration at 62mph+ but tires are balanced

Sun, 05 Sep 2021 18:02:04 -0700

when driving, once I hit 62mph+ I get somewhat strong vibrations from what feels like the passenger front. Braking has no effect on vibrations, other than slowing me down which under 62mph the vibration goes away. My first thought was tires. Had them balanced and rotated. Had zero change from this. Second thought was cv axle. But then I remembered that's only on fwd or 4wd. Mine is rear wheel drive so there is no cv. Then I thought maybe front wheel bearing but I'm not getting any of the noises typical of bearing failure. Tearing my hair out over here because going most places requires highway speeds.

2007-2014 Chevrolet Suburban: Size of bulb for led conversion on the dash instrument cluster lights?

Mon, 06 Jul 2020 14:13:25 -0700

I believe this type of bulb has to be soldered on, but I'm not quite sure what kind of bulb it is. I am hoping to swap my 2011 Chevy suburban dash instrument cluster lights to LED green and kind of stumbling on which lights to buy if they're correct or not for my year. Also, would like to swap out door lights and center console control lights too.

1992-1999 Chevrolet Suburban: Cranks but no start!

Tue, 17 Feb 2026 09:37:39 -0700

I changed the rotor and the cap plugs and wires. on my 98 suburban 5.7 Vortec drove it for about two months no problems. parked it. The next morning went out crank crank no start no start. Check to make sure there was gas in tank. never had check engine light on ever the entire time ive owned it. Yes the dash bulb does work. Lol. I checked fuel pressure while cranking it. It’s at 66 psi. but when I took my plugs out, I noticed that they were wet n smelled like gas out. Sprayed starting fluid in throttlebody never fired over so I figured it was spark related. Check each individual plug for spark. manually turned motor to the compression stroke to male sure #1 was at tdc Make sure that the rotor pointed to spark plug # one. And it did. coil has spark. my tach moves ppl when I’m cranking so im assuming cps is good tried to see if any play was in dist itself went side to side feeling for or any slight movement and she didnt. Please if anyone can let me know anything else to do it would greatly appreciated.

Chevrolet Suburban: falls flat on its face during acceleration

Fri, 18 Jun 2021 14:07:44 -0700

my 1994 chevy suburban c1500 2wd is having problems. During acceleration it tries to fall flat on its face. Bogs way down and loses rpms. Idles kinda rough too. Thought the acceleration problem was fuel related. But I've changed the fuel pump and screen, fuel filter, and TPS. Rotor looks good as do contacts in cap. Seems alot worse when wet weather. Idling in N or P it only stumbles occasionally, but when in D or R it stumbles pretty badly, rpms seem low (like 300) and fluctuate by 100rpm or so. Even slow acceleration is no longer a guaranteed thing. Used to be hard acceleration would cause these symptoms but an easy acceleration wouldn’t. Now, doesn't matter. Wants to fall flat on it's face.

Maybe bad distributor? TBI? I wouldn't think it would cause this issue but O2 sensor?

Driver window doesn't work. All other windows work even from the driver door just not driver window. It doesn't make any kind of noise or anything when I try to put it down it's stuck up. Could it be the motor or the switch?
