Hello all,
I am new to your forum, i hope someone can help.
I picked up an Avalanche with a blown engine, I got a junk yard motor and i am having some issues with the new motor, as well as a trani problem.
Ive got soot on the number 4 and 8 cylinders. Engine runs very poorly. low to no power. The soot is very dusty so I get the sense it fuel related. I have not done a compression check as i need to go get a gauge but I am really hoping its not rings.
What can i do or check besides a compression check at this point? It has new plugs new wires. Old capacitors. The service CEL is say PO300 which multiple misfiring.
Also, my trani has something odd going on. When i stick it in gear, I can feel like a pulse, as thought the trani is out of balance. Is it possible to put the trani in that would cause it to be out of balance?
Thanks in advance.
I did a compression check, I got 170 so it looks good.
But now what?
