    High Fuel Rail Pressure

    Fuel pressure relief valve

    All depends on if that is really your problem or not. What is the truck doing that makes you think that is the problem?

    Transgo shift kit 01-05 5 speed for lbz?

    That is the complete kit for a 5 speed transmission the parts you need are not in the small box in that kit. You need the trim valves that are in small plastic bags. There are 2 of them. One of them is in the bottom left corner of your photo and the other is just above the springs. Do not use...

    2002 3500 blowed up!!

    The 2002 truck is slightly different than the 2003 and later. I'm sure with enough time you could make the swap work but it would take some rewireing and ECM reprogramming. The simple way would be to use the short block from the '05 and you top end. That would be a straight swap.

    LB7 engines

    All model years to date can have the shortblock swapped. From there up there are several differences. The only thing that happens in the short block is that they used different pistons. 2001 - 2005 LB7 and LLY 17.5:1 2006 - up 16.8:1

    LB7 Engine price

    The LB7 motors use a few different parts based on what market it was going to and the model year. The option codes listed above will be in your glove box if no one ripped the label out. You look to see which one you have NF2, NF4 or if it a california truck to get the right motor. The short...

    Suncoast boost modifier valve?

    That valve will require the transmission to be removed to be installed. Does it help, yes. What it does is change the pressure once the converter is locked. The stock valve will drop the pressure from ~255 down to ~155. With the Transgo valve it will only drop to ~185. This gives the clutches...

    LMM Nicktane

    One thing I have done on my trucks (2001, 2004 ,2006) was to move the OEM filter some. I do not have an LMM so it might be different but look at how it is mounted to the valvecover. Mine have only 2 bolts holding it in place. I just put a spacer between the mount and 2 slightly longer bolts in...

    MAF Sensor Bad or Edge?

    The power for the OBD II port is the cigarette lighter fuse

    MAF Sensor Bad or Edge?

    The MAF sets the upper limit of the fuel that can be delivered to the engine so it could cause smoke. Not that it has to cause smoke. I would find someone with a scantool and look to see if the MAF is reading and that it changes values with engine speed before I did anything.

    EFI Live data logging/reading help needed.

    If the cylinders are pushing pressure into the cooling system that means is doesn't have all the pressure in the cylinder like it should. I t will effect low engine RPM's and thata is where the balance test id run. Like I said it could be injectors going but I would fix the coolant before going...

    obd ii connector no power

    Pin # 16 is battery voltage and pins # 4 and 5 are ground. Your truck doesn't have any CAN connections in the OBD II plug so do not worry about that.

    EFI Live data logging/reading help needed.

    It does not mean your injectors are bad but that the cylinder is low on power. Most of the time it's the injector but in your case with the coolant issues that too could be causing it. One cylinder is showing it's taking away fuel while the other is adding fuel.

    Head gaskets... again...

    The injector cup is a round tube with a taper that it seals the waterjack on and o-ring on the top to seal the oil out. There are several things that will make them leak but the first and foremost is due to improper cleaning and installation. Since you've got a problem it's really a cheaper...

    Head gaskets... again...

    Before you go to have the head gaskets replaced you may want to find someone local to reseal the injector cups. If they were not taken out, cleaned and resealed properly that could be your issue. Take the glow plugs out after running the engine and let it sit for a few hours. Then have someone...

    Seat covers smell like smoke from prev. owner...how do I get it out?

    If you not in a hurry a bar of Ivory soap works great. Tear the top of the soap bar box open about 1/2 way and toss it under the seat. It will take a few weeks but once it starts to smell like soap remove the bar from the truck. The soap smell goes away pretty quick once the bar is removed

    Powertrain Control Module

    PCM is the wrong name for a duramax truck but some use it anyways. PowerTrain Control Module controls the entire Powertrain(ie: engine and transmission). We really have an ECM = Engine Control Module since it only controls the engine.

    Powertrain Control Module

    It the computer that runs the engine in your truck, know as PCM, ECM and a few other names. In your truck it a Bosch controller.

    LBZ: Identifying Non-GM Calibration Usages

    Bottom line here is GM, Ford and Dodge are all hurting and they are doing what it takes to try to stop the bleeding of funds. So they are putting catches in place to keep people from modifying the vehicles and then asking for warranty for something that broke. It's been in place since 2001 and...
