RustyWCA Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) 2004 silverado ss all stock but with a intake exhaust and hypertech programmer So I had a 6 hour drive and found about 4 hours into it going uphill the motor seemed to cut out or miss fire or something best way i could describe it is it you left off the gas pedal for a split secot then was right back on it, this would happen going up hills on on long straights where my foot wouldent move all the petal at all. Did not do it all the time, it was here and there. no engine codes. any ideas? Edited August 2, 2013 by RustyWCA (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustyWCA Posted August 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Plugs and wires are about 7 years old? Fuel pump maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC03SS Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Could be pump could be lots of things. Plugs n wires need to go. It's hard to pin point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyWCA Posted August 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 I agree with the plugs and wires, im ready to start throwing parts at it, just need to know where to start, and its so hard to replicate the issue, most of the time it drives fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyWCA Posted August 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 I do get the MAF code once in a while but i thought it was just from the K&N intake on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 If your getting a maf code it is most likely going bad. That can cause the symptoms you are describing. I would first do the plugs and wires, clean the maf with eletrical cleaner so you dont damage the wires, and clean the throttle body.

RustyWCA Posted August 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 I cleaned the throttlebody a couple weeks ago, I tried the MAF sensor cleaner but the code still pops up so maybe just time for a new one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 More than likely, Mine did the same thing for months. I bought a used one off this forum and never had the issue again. They can be pricey brand new like $300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
