problem #1

2007Nov 20

Suburban LT 5.7L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 93,000 miles

truck started to misfire. i would let it rest for a night and would be fine for a week or two. the car would start to stall while driving. after a month the truck began to get worse and worse. the truck finally broke down. it wouldn't even turnover,a nd then the battery died. the truck's timing sensor near the crank shaft wasn't working, and the mechanic's that gave me diagnostics told me it was my fuel pump, fuel lines, injectors, spark plugs, plug wires, timing chain, and distributor cap. they were trying to sneek all these parts and make me pay over 2500 dollars. i replaced the sensor, distributor cap, and spark plug wires. thr truck ran fine for another 1,000 miles, and now it's starting to act up again. i hate it and am getting rid of it for 500 dollars.
