    Mines doing the same exact thing runs great but a weird idle dont no why im a scared too it might die at a stop but no check engine light nothing like that I'm thinking about trying better gas I always use 87 but I'll try 93 if it helps or not and it's also a 5.3l flex fuel too

    Get a catch can. Gm mostors recirculate oilly air into the air intake, thats why we need techron. To fix run 4 cans back to back of techron, put on the catch can, and 3rd is if ypu want the idle smooth asap, go get an injector cleaning device. They are only $60. You pull each enjector you put the wire from the machine onto the injector as you spray carb cleaner through it. The machine fires the injector and if its fouled you see it with your own eyes go from a splatter to a nice fine mist. Then put it back in and done. Do this for all 8 injectors. Look up how to remove injectors first. Some cars it tKe 5 seconds to get them out but other cars take forever as the are buried.

    mine I had to replace the plugs and 1 coil because it originally had an e85 motor...that motor died and was replaced with a 5.3 long block. the guy did alot of shortcuts....installing the old used misgaped plugs and after I got all new properly gaped plugs and replaced the throttle body and coil..it still has a rough idle. only when i take off at 20-25 the light goes off...I'll try your trick with the 93..my 81 jeep ran like a caddy when I used BP 93

    My suburban had rough idle, and it was because the idle was too low. You have to reprogram (buy a chip) and increase idle to ~800. This was after literally replacing everything I could, and that was the actual fix.

  • @extrememiami
    @extrememiami5 ай бұрын

    A tune used to mean go get your timing adjusted with a timing light. You kids today will nevwr know what that's like as the car now does that. Now a tune means to go get your Powerband map adjusted with a modified timing profile. A sport tune can advance the timing and give more power but require you to use 91 octane fuel, it can raise the rpms of when your car shifts to benifit from aftermarket parts like a torque converter etc. Or get a fuel economy fuel map, less power, lower rpm, long low comfy shifts etc. A "tuner" doesn't tune anything he plugs a USB in and uploads a new map and unplugs the device. I had a Diablo sport tuner. I tuned my escalade to be a beast. 10 years later I have the same car and my old ass wants better mpg and a comfy ride, but I lost the $600 tuner and refuse to buy another. I'm stuck with an Escalade thats loud as hell and drives like a racecar.

    @extrememiami sucks had the same thing happened. Even buying a new tuner, it doesn't have the original profile of the trucks computer. So if I wanted to get the original settings, I'd have to buy a new computer. Reprogram keys, etc. Huge pain I thought I had to go through to get it smogged. Thankfully, me just increasing RPM doesn't effect smog results

  • @Keyno77
    @Keyno772 жыл бұрын

    These trucks idle rough because they burn oil. Carbon deposits create preignition detonation knocking which can be heard on heavily under acceleration. The real fix is to get the updated left valve cover and the updated tiny oil splash guard that goes on the oil return nipple inside the oil pan, and a professional seafoam or system clean to prevent hydro locking. Higher octane fuel is less prone to cause knocking with carbon deposits and compression and the additive helps clean the system in the very long term. Is like engineers want our engines to break with this PCV systems, thats why oil catch cans help reduce this by reducing oil contamination in combustion chambers.

    Should be idling around 550-600 RPM. If you fall too far below 500 you'll probably start getting misfire codes (I know when one of my spark plugs got fouled it was varying between 400-600 RPM and got codes).
