GM 5.7 TBI rough idle and stalls out when put in gear ?

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

1995 GMC Suburban 2500 4x4 with GM 5.7 TBI motor and automatic transmission.
We have...Installed a new exhaust system from the catalytic converter back, instaled a new o2 sensor, MAP sensor, engine temperature coolant sensor, new fuel filter as well as new fuel lines from the TBI down to the frame rail where the fuel filter is located. Both, the supply and return line were replaced from this location.
(((Sorry for the door buzzer beep!)))
The motor will start up fine, cold or warm. When starting from cold, the it will be in the high idle mode, apprx. 1000 RPM. Once at operating temperature, the RPM's will drop to around 800. When you put your foot on the brake, the RPM's will drop and as you pull it into gear, either drive or reverse, the motor will die. The motor will start back up again, but this issue is consistent. Also, at temperature, if you give the motor more throttle, there is a noticeble miss / rough running condition above 1500 RPMs.
There does not appear to be any vacuum leaks and the EGR valve appears to be functioning correctly. The TBI's appear to be spraying a cone fuel pattern without any drips.
I am not able to check the inline fuel pressue due to no valve on this series of fuel lines.
Please comment with your thoughts and suggestions on where ot look next for a possable fix.
Thank you.

    Had an idle / shifting into gear issue similar to yours. Replaced the EGR valve Fuel filter plugs wires, then the cap and rotor like you said. Disconnected the battery to hard reset the computer and drove her around a bit now she idles great. Still has an issue with hard/late shifting and accelerating weird, but doesnt die anymore fingers crosses. Cheers bud

    Again your transmission is electronic so the wires that run through that plastic loom I talked about is hot wires. If it's melted to exhaust then the hot grounds out alot in computer. You'll have to reset it every time. Mine is a 1994 I put 5.7 t bi out of k15 blazer and got to were it wouldn't come out of second gear sometime just first. I found the bad hot wire in loom and now runs great

    Just a couple of comments; we had a similar issue with our Honda Pilot a few months ago. Turned out one of the ignition coils had failed. That’s all it was. It took a shop to diagnose it because I don’t have the diagnostic tools. Another thing, does the oil pressure seem high? Probably not related to the issue but I wanted to mention it. Anyway, good luck. That’s a tough one to figure out!

    Thank you...I keep scratching my head on this one...lots of research, try a new sensor, etc. and still same condition. I'm in the same boat, no diagnotic tools and for me, trying to rule out the easy stuff first before committing to a shop. Regarding the oil pressure, yes, that is another issue I need to address; from what I've found out so far, it's either a faulty sending unit or a bad motor on the back side of the gauge. I want to do an oil change and see what it does with fresh oil, this is a new to us vehicle so thankfully it's not our every-day driver.

    So, the idle issue is still a puzzle, however, after changing the oil and filter, the oil pressure is at a more respectable 60 psi after the motor has warmed up. Draining the catch pan, I’ve no idea what viscosity the previous owner used as it was black as coal and definitely not 10w-30 !

    Hello, we will do a follow-up video soon. We picked up a Snap-On computer of the same vintage and ran throught some tests. The RPMs were actually showing in spec, but the O2 would often witch between normal and rich. We also need to put a timing light on it and see how it is looking. More to come. Thank you.

    Just bought a 1999 f150 5.4. I have a similar situation. When my truck has been off all night and I first crank it in the morning it doesn't shake or anything. Once I drive it a little bit will start shaking when I'm stopped or parked. The rpms don't move around to much stays about 1000rpms. Seems to get quieter when in neutral. Changes throttle position sensor, plugs and coils, air idol control valve and pcv valve and it's done nothing to fix the problem. Check engine light is on. When I'm over 40mps and accelerated it doesn't vibrate or shake or surge. I also recently had a couple times I went to start it and it would crank first couple times almost like a dead battery but then third time started right up. So, lost at this point lol

    Very frustrating for sure. Regarding the check engine light, did it show any codes that lead you to replacing the listed parts? If so, with everything new, it's even more frustrating. Did you check the Oxygen sensors in the exhaust? Also, on your truck, is there a sensor in the air intake? I recall my brother had an issue with one of his mid to late 1990's Ford trucks and it ended up being the tube between the air cleaner and intake had a sensor and I don't recall if it had been disconnected or the tube was loose between the air cleaner and intake, but that sensor in that line was giving a false reading of no / inadequate air supply and the motor ran very rough.

    In my case, there were two issues...first was the secondary ground wire, which i did cover in another video, but its the ground that runs from the firewall to the frame and then from the frame, through the wire loom at the starter and then on to the back side of the bellhousing. The other issue, and biggest contributor to the problem was a bad distrubutor cap and rotor of all things. The button in the center of the cap was badly worn and almost powder! We replaced the cap and rotor and that solved the problem! Very stange, but that was it. Since this vehicle was used when we got it, there were a lot of probmes we were chasing down. Thank you for the comment and interest.

    Initially, I do not know what oil the former owner was using or how old it was. We did an oil change with the correct oil weight as well as a GM filter and the oil pressure now runs around 60 PSI unless a hard acceleration occurs and it will bump up some and then go back to 60.

    @@johnking9840 Thank you...Looking for your thoughts on this...I did have the ground wire issue as you had mentioned. The braided copper wire from the firewall to frame was ok, hovever, the one from the frame to the top / back side of the bell housing was broken. I tried to replace that one, however, accessing, let alone seeing the bolt where it attaches just wasn't happening. So, I added an new ground from the firewall to frame, using the same firewall mounting bolt and using the frame bolt that holds the rear heater hose bracket and from the frame to the bottom of the bell housing; using a bolt that was readily accessible that joins the motor and transmission. Despite this new ground not being in the exact same location on the bell housing, I'm assuming it will do its job. Fingers crossed ! THe wire that you mentioned, tends to be melted by the manifold, what does that wire / wires go to? I want ot ensure everything else is OK.

    The wires coming off the starter going to IGN and alternator but thoughts wires run through a plastic loom is what I call it. Supposed to be heat safe and won't melt but they do. The factory did this to all the Chevy truck sometimes they will have it running through a pipe that looks like piece of exhaust but is only 5 inches long. Promise the wires inside that look is bad
