Please Help! Random misfire mystery! Running out of money and patience!
Was recently given a 2005 Tahoe LT 5.3 that had been sitting for a few years (4-5). It ran when parked and was started intermittently. I immediately changed the fluids before doing anything, but after starting it I got a random misfire code. Now, I know this could be many different things, so to save time here is a brief list of what I've already tried:
New fuel
Fuel pump/filter
No leak in fuel lines
New plugs/wires/coils
Intake manifold gasket
All 4 O2 sensors
MAF Sensor
Checked for vacuum leaks
Checked relays/fuses
I'm getting no codes at first. Then after a short idle I'll get P0300 Random Misfire. This free ride is becoming very expensive. Please help!
