Chev Suburban Car Answers1987 Suburban Engine UpgradeIn short she has an excellent body but 240k mile and is a 3/4 ton 2x4 with a 350cc 5.7 F/I in her so she is getting tired. Maintenace and repairs (and gas) will only nickel and dime me so i was considering upgrading to a vortec 5.7/6.0 Is this even an applicable option? If so what would be a good year engine to search for and if not what are my options? She doesn't smoke runs well on the freeway however tends to foul out plugs quickly and tends to miss a lot on acceleration and i doubt that i am running on all 8 cylinders.Get Answers About Your Chev Suburban1992 Suburban Drive Train & Driveline MalfunctionWhen accelerating the automatic transmission will not shift from second to third until the tach is at 4000 rpms. The shift from third to forth is normal then it won't shift into OD. I've changed the fluid and filter. The fluid looked fine it was still red and didn't smell burnt at all.1989 Suburban Drive Train & Driveline VibrationHello,I have had my rear end rebuilt, the torque converter replaced along with the flywheel and a new drive shaft installed (I don't know much about the new drive shaft except my mechanic says it's straight as an arrow). Problem: From 0 to about 35/40mph the ride is fine; at 40 to about 55 it vibrates; from about 57 to nearly 65 it's the smoothest ride of all; from then on the vibrations increase with the most at 75 plus mph. The vivrations are felt in my rear end and seem "harmonic" or wave like. What do you think it is--do these Chevy suburbans have this kind of problem? I just want to go fishing but I can't drive the freeway.

It will not shift into any other gear. When you get up to 40-50, and you let off, its like its in neutral untill you accellerate and the engine RPM catches up.

Door locks/ignition/starter/interior/headlights are all inop - noise like a clicking relay coming from under dash after attempting to start, continues after ignition turned off and key removed.

The first replacement module lasted about 1 week. The second module lasted almost a month. I tried putting in a new module and it still won't start. The engine just turns over with now firing. We tested a spark plug to see if there was spark... and there was. Could it be some other part now after all the modules I replaced? Fuel Pump? Anything else? The car was running fine before this latest episode. I felt the module and it was very hot. I had it parked for about 10 minutes and when I came back, nothing.. it wouldn't start. Any suggestions, besides bringing it to a shop?Thanks |
