99 Tahoe cylinder misfire
I recently acquired a 99 Tahoe. I don't know much of the history as its hard to track down its previous owner. To start off here's a list of some problems with it.
- very rough idle, makes the vehicle shake - throwing a 305 code (misfire on cylinder 5) - a rattling noise when I get on the throttle, it nearly stops at coasting speeds and deceleration. Doesn't sound like a knock. - gurgling noise when it sits at an idle - very thin white smoke (does not smell like burning oil) when I throttle it up in neutral. I've been told that a couple lifting rods have been replaced and some of the plugs and wires. I don't know if they all have or not. I don't know if the distributor or its cap was replaced either. Those are the first things I would check if it wasn't making a gurgling noise and rattling when I get on the throttle. I cannot find any coolant leaks but it does have oil on the starter and oil pan. Anyway first things first, I want to find out what's causing the misfire. Thanks for the help and sorry if this is a repeat of another post. |

Could it be the fuel mixture getting to that cylinder?
