I have been chasing this problem for around 6 months. Last bit of information is that it appears to be a fuel pressure/delivery problem. With a maintenance scanner connected and the above situation occurs, the oxygen sensor maxes out indicating too much oxygen and insufficient gas. Recommendation is to have fuel system pressure tested. Fuel filter has been replaced with no help. Fuel pump could be suspect. I had the same problem with my 2000 Maxima. It felt like the car was sucking too much air or running out of gas under full throttle acceloration as the RPM got past about 3500. Power suffered as well. I replace the MAF mass airflow sensor and it was like I had a new car! The part is pretty easy to replace, taking about 20 minutes. The MAF in line with the air intake system. I have had the same problem with my 2000 GLE Max, sometimes the TCS/Slip came on and never go out. After searching many forums I noticed most 2000 Nissan Maximas have defective coils, I brought it to dealership and pay some money for diagnostic, they ssaid that all six coils are defected, they caused back fired. It tooks me more than 6 hours to replace the coils and voila I really enjoy my Max again. Hope this will help.
Where is the cabin air filter in a 2007 avalanche?
2007+ GMT900, NBS (GM New Body Style) have no cabin air filter by design. There is an aftermarket option to install one....if really need one. I think GM blocked the area where you install the filter.

How many grease fittings does a 2007 Avalanche have?
The 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche typically does not have any grease fittings, as it uses sealed components that are designed to be maintenance-free. Many modern vehicles, including the Avalanche, utilize bearings and joints that do not require regular greasing. However, it's always a good idea to consult the owner's manual or a dealership for specific maintenance information.
How do you replace the serpentine belt on a 2001 Chevy Prism?
First make a sketch of how the belt is routed over and under the pulleys. As you face the engine from the passenger side of the vehicle, look toward the firewall side of the engine for a pulley mounted on an "arm". This is the tensioner for the belt. On this arm is a 3/4" nut welded to it. Turn it clockwise toward the front of the car and the arm & pulley should swing enough for the belt to be pulled off. Replacing the belt is tricky because the new belt will be stiff and have bends set into a weird shape. It is best done with two people. One should be under the car and one on top. I did it with my wife. I was underneath. Start at the front of the car and work toward the rear leaving the tensioner for last. I made the final loop over the tensioner from underneath while my wife relieved the tensioner. You could do it from on top if they are skilled enough to un-tension the arm and position the belt. Both will have to hold the belt from slipping off as the belt as it is rerouted. Make some small golf club shaped or hooked tools to push / pull the belt over and under pulleys, it will help.
If you are doing this job yourself, it is a little easier to save the alternator for last.
Working from the front of the car you can pull on the tensioner (I used a 3/4" socket on a breaker bar) forward with one hand, while slipping the belt over the alternator pulley at the same time. Tricky, but it works!

Crank No Start When Cold Due to Compression Loss - kw nostart no cylinder dtc crank hard head idle lifter low mil misfire rough run valve #PIP3146A - (Jan 26, 2005)
Condition/Concern:
Crank no start when cold. The engine may crank over very fast, as if there is low/no compression. It may also run rough for up to 5 minutes after starting the engine and may exhibit a P0300 DTC too. This may be caused by sticking valves due to fuel contamination. When the engine is cold, the compression on multiple cylinders may be at 0 PSI. The engine also may pop through the intake or exhaust while cranking and the spark plugs may be fuel fouled when inspected. Some engines may also experience valve damage or cam followers that are out of position as a result of this.
This condition will normally occur in specific areas of the country for a period of time and then it will no longer occur after the suspect fuel source has been consumed in that area of the country.
Recommendation/Instructions:
If the SI Diagnosis lead to a compression loss due to sticking valves, the following information may help:
If there is no sign of valve damage or cam followers that are out of place, perform the following procedure to free up sticking valves and to prevent the valves from sticking again. If valve damage is present or if there are cam followers that are out of place, perform engine mechanical repairs as necessary to correct the concern and then perform the procedure below to prevent the valves from sticking again.
1. Clean the fuel system by following the applicable "Fuel System Cleaning" procedure outlined in SI.
2. Add fuel injector cleaner (Part Number 12345104) to the fuel tank in the approved quantities.
3. Refill the fuel tank using fuel from a high volume, high quality filling station.
4. Clean the induction system using GM Top Engine Cleaner. Follow the directions on the can but DO NOT force the engine to stall since forcing the engine to stall with liquid Top Engine Cleaner could cause the engine to hydro-lock.
5. Advise the customer to change fuel filling stations. They should use fuel from only high volume, high quality filling stations or they should use a Top Tier Detergent Gasoline if available. See 04-06-04-047A for details regarding Top Tier Detergent Gasoline.
Note: If the condition is not eliminated chemically, it may be necessary to remove the valves to manually clean the stems.
Please follow this diagnosis process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.

How do you install a tailgate handle on a 2005 Chevy Avalanche?
It is a lengthy project if you do it correctly. You have to just about take the entire tailgate apart piece by piece. I started by removing the tail gate and putting it on some padded saw horses. From there, you just have to keep removing bolts until you get it broken down. The reason it is so difficult is there is a small tab positioned so that you cannot remove the latch -- you will likely see it early on. It is located right in the latch handle area. I took a short cut at this point. You don't have to but it was "a big time saver."
After looking at the tab for a while and procrastinating about taking the tailgate apart, I had my body man take a cutting wheel and remove the tab. You cannot see this when the latch is in place -- it appears to be a security enhancement, not a requirement for looks or operation of the latch. Anyway, it saved a couple hours of work and works/looks fine.
How do you change a cabin air filter on a 2003 Avalon?
You will see three Phillips head screws across the top and one on lower left, remove these, now on the lower right back in an indent you will see a 10mm bolt head, remove this bolt. There are several metal push-clips holding the glove box in place after the four screws and bolt are removed. Pull firmly from the top and rotate the bottom right flange out from behind the molding where the bolt was removed. There is a plastic foot shield that snaps to the bottom edge of the glove box. Pull it off the box. Gently pull glove box out and let hang down. If you want you can unplug the wire to the trunk opener cancelling switch by pushing the little tab while pulling out. You can now maneuver the filter holder out of its tray that is above where the glove box was. Grasp filter holder from both sides with fore fingers and pull it straight out. Remove filter from holder and install new filter the same way. Reinstall filter holder, Gently put glove box back in place, reinsert screws and bolt. Enjoy the fresh air.
What is the flasher location on a 1994 LeBaron?
The flasher relay in plugged into the black colored section (top) of the interior relay block. This block is located to the left side of the steering column under the dashboard. It helps to remove the plastic cover (knee bolster) below the steering wheel (5 screws) to see the block and relay. The relay block is placed behind and higher than the fuse block. The face of the relay block faces towards the steering column so you will be pulling the flasher relay towards the column. Cheers
What causes an Oil pressure reading 80dpi?
You have a problem with the stepper motor gauge that Chevy used in the 02-06? Avalanche. All the gauges use the same stepper motor. They just go wonky and do all kinds of weird things. I have replaced two on mine already and two more are now acting up. There is a guy selling the motors and the repair for this problem on E-bay.
Your local auto glass shop will have a replacement glass that goes on with double sided tape, it even has the "objects are closer" on it. You just carefully remove the old glass and stick on the new glass

How much horsepower can you get out of a Chevy 305 1978?
How much money do you have? The 305 Chevy is not a good starting point. You would be much better off finding a good 350 and work with that small block. The power is only limited by the amount of money you want to spend.
Will an ATV fit into a 2004 avalanche bed?
It most likely will if it's a sport ATV. It most likely will NOT if it is a utility ATV because the rails that support the 3-PC hard cover make the bed too narrow. This is actually the reason that I got rid of mine and bought a Sierra.
How much horsepower does a 1991 3.1 v6 automatic have?
It depends on the condition of the engine, and how well its been maintained. A stock 1991 3.1L MPFI V6 was rated at 140hp, but private dynos over the years have show numbers as high as 152hp, depending on the make/model/condition of the vehicle. Several factors are attributed to hp loss/gain.
