    Door latch not flipping open all the time

    They're not too bad. Pull the door card, disconnect the inside and outside handle rods and the lock rod. IIRC, three screws hold the latch in place. Remove and replace. Reconnect rods and reassemble. Trap for new gamers is not making sure the outside door lock engages correctly on the latch...

    Aluminum added for structure and bump stops at the cowl for extra support.

    Lower valence panel

    Around here, I've only seen them on 2wd half tons. They don't do anything other than hide your undercarriage :eek: from the front.

    2006 Suburban 1500 Z71

    Welcome! Sounds like you've got a decent project on your hands. I'm sure we'd all like to see pics. I've got a '06 Tahoe and '78 Suburban, so I'm sure I'm a little biased that the SUV GMT800s are the best. High pressure oil pumps are no problem. Lots of people run them. As far as the pegged oil...

    Do you have a code scanner with live sensor data?

    Throttle Actuator Control Module

    I think the misfire calculator is partially dependent on TPS percentage. If that was wrong, it may not have been able to see it. Glad you were able to get it figured out. Also good to document that a spark plug wire can cause TPS/ throttle issues.

    So it looks like you have the picture button but not the attachments one. @MADDOG can look at it and inquire about possible implementation.

    I think we are setup for that too. I just sent you a message with a pic and a blank bill of sale file. Let me know if they show.

    I believe we are set up for this already.

    Throttle Actuator Control Module

    I believe 2 hours without the battery connected will reset both the throttle body position and the pedal position sensors. Overnight should definitely clear those parameters.

    First, welcome to the forum. If you recently did the O2 sensors, check your live data on fueling. Fuel trims, O2 readings, etc. Could be just flat out too lean or rich and when loaded it dies.

    Pretty good lookin truck. Rust sucks, but you could always drag back a sun rotted example from out west and start swapping.

    Yeah. My parents warned me about drugs and alcohol, but not brunettes and race cars.

    The Duct Tape Camaro

    Sorted out some electrical issues. Butt crimp failed, causing a fuse to blow. Same circuit powers the gauges. Replaced fuse, new heat shrink style butt crimp and all that is right. Car fires right up. It is so satisfying. Added a nitrous filter, pressure gauge, and ball valve.

    I adapted a set of GMT800 3rd row seats to fit my '78 Suburban. The folding feature is really nice to have. You might consider making mounts that allow the second row to still fold forward so you can set stuff in there without messing up the seats. Would make for a neat conversion.

    Welcome from the Phoenix Valley! That's a good lookin' truck, sir. Very clean. Looks like a helluva acquisition. Don't worry about the questions. We're all here to help.

    The Duct Tape Camaro

    Back in the shop! Old coils on the front: New coils that sit like 4" lower: My very old Holley Blue fuel pump died. Replaced with a nearly equally old Barry Grant. Luckily we had new fittings and o-rings on hand. I also got a race fuel shower. At least it's not as bad for your skin as...
