Brian P Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 how in bloody hell did you run the tank down to bone dry 16.94 gals? Lets make sure you're getting the right numbers before troubleshooting. And yes I've warned people about using Bosch anything on GM's, especially spark plugs and O2's, the most crucial parts to engine operation. Use AC Delco or Standard Motor Products. NGK might be alright too. Quote

Brian P Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 I meant to say I was referring to O2 sensors in my post. I'm running NGK v-powers in both my cars and they're doing good! Quote
per0781 Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 I'm running NGK v-powers in both my cars and they're doing good! same here brah. can't go wrong for 1.75 a spark plug. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted May 4, 2008 Report Posted May 4, 2008 Im running the AC Delco Iridium in my 3400. The plugs only have about 8,000miles on them so there was no point in changing them. Quote

I could be below E for 30 miles and when I fill up, it might take 15.5 gals the most. You're cutting it close there!! Quote

GTFO..... really? yes sir. The gas tank shound be 16.5 gallons, and if you run it wayyy down ( like Ive been down to the point of less than 1gal ) you can fit 17gallons in there. Itll take you a while cause the pump will keep kicking back, but you can fit it if you try. Quote
