    High Idle delay for remote start

    Hey Veg, This is an interesting one - i have a Viper Remote start setup on my 98 Suburban. This is obviously an OBD2. I have done the high idle mod - but i can not get the two to play together. If i do a remote start and have high idle set - it ignores it and just runs at the standard revs...

    Help needed 98 Suburban - tryiing to change the CPS - fouled by the PS pump

    Yep that is the one i followed - it is more the software is horrible - there are buttons and scrollbars that do not do anything. As a newbie (to doing a TDCO) and using Carcode i found it scared me 1/2 to death ! Anyway Racer has turned this into a PDF and then one of the other guys has...

    Help needed 98 Suburban - tryiing to change the CPS - fouled by the PS pump

    Its a long one and still ongoing - i originally raised it on the other forum (before i found you guys !) so have kept it running there. Basically the car would not maintain idle - did the basic tests (2000 RPPM etc) and they all pointed to a faulty IP. But before biting the bullet on that (i...

    OBDII

    OK thanks - that makes me feel better. How do i then tell the PCM to do a TDCO learn through the software ? Is it just a matter of hitting the enable button in the enhanced data screen ? Does anyone know why there are two disable buttons ? and what they do ? Craig

    OBDII

    Guys, As an absolute beginner can someone advise me how to use the carCode software ? I need to clear codes with it and then do a TDCO on a new IP for a 98 Suburban. I have followed through the PDF - but can not work out what the radio dial is meant to do nor the up and down arrows in the...

    Is it possible to coke biodiesel in the fuel lines? Plugged filter screen again!

    Have you changed your fuel system so that you are not sending hot BIO back to the fuel tank ? I think you would be better served putting in a 3 way solenoid so you can loop the fuel return at the IP and stop hot BIO going back to the fuel tank. Craig

    Hey Racer, Thanks for the update - you would not happen to have pics of where the bolts are for that bracket - when i look at mine it seems like they run right down the side of the engine block ? Craig

    Help needed 98 Suburban - tryiing to change the CPS - fouled by the PS pump

    OK thanks - can this be done with it in the car and the raditator/fan still in ? I will post up some pics of the car later today - it is an Aussie K2500 98 model - bit of a frankenstein that Australia had GM make in the Selinas plant in Mexico. RHD - so we have the dash from a tahoe that...

    P400 coming to Alaska to replace a failed Diesel Depot engine

    Centre mount turbo eh ? Guys, in Australia Holden did a deal with Chevy for 1998-2001 and had a bastardised version of the suburban built in RHD. It was built in a special part of the plant in Selinas in Mexico. Apparently we have Yukon/Tahoe Dash (as there were no RHD versions of the...
