I'm about the shoot this thing and get another Tahoe.
I have had it with this 1313, 1316, 305 and 307 code crap. I changed everything. I rebuilt the heads, changed all the engine sensors, checked al;l harness wires and plugs. Spit shined the ecu connectors and the bastard is still buggared.
I did notice that when I disconnect the rear left o2 sensor it runs great for 24 hours! I mean it only has 60% of its overall power but its smooth and stable for a day and then it starts is trip again. Even with the sensor disconnected. check this out, if I disconnect the rear left o2 sensor I get NO CODES set! In fact, when the CEL does come on its not for the o2 sensor but another p1316!
I have come up with the theory that there is nothign wrong with the motor and any of the sensors. The computer is just no designed well. Crappy software or something. I know there was a prom update but land rover will not verify this.
I also might suspect a clogged cat. Would this cause my problems?
Id does seem to blow out the manifold / y pipe gaskets a bit. sounds like a lot of rushing air and hissing under hard load like an exhaust leak under my feet. I know from other cars this indicates a blockage in the exaust. So why would I get misfire codes from a blocked cat if this is the case?
Does anyone know of a chevy 350 conversion kit for this thing?
