The other day I washed the engine in my truck and drove it for apprrox 150 mile the next morning I drove for 32 miles and the check engine light came on. I had a friend of mine check it out with an engine scanner ans it had an error code 0332 (knock sensor) he cleared the code and it worked for approx 32 mile and came back on. he said that moisture may have gotten into the knock sensor boot causing the error code or I have a bad sensor. I also triey to disconnect the battery and try to clear the error code that way seems to work bbut comes back, hoe do I solve this problem without having to remove the entire intake from the engine.
You can't..you'll have to replace the sensor..no other cure

Sounds like the cam positioning sensor. I have a 2002 GMC 2500HD 8.1L and this happened to me. Hope this helps.

If the light was flashing when it came on, then it means your engine is misfiring.
A solid light can mean anything from a loose/faulty gas cap to a transmission issue.
This
light comes on when the computer detects a
fault of some sort in its diagnostic tests. If it keeps detecting this
issue, the light will remain on. If the light turns off, then it has
detected that the issue may no longer be present.
In
order to find out what the exact reason was for your light, You need to
have your car computer scanned to retrieve the code that
the computer would have stored when the light triggered. Most garages
will do this free of charge. The code will tell you what may have
caused the light to initially turn on. Until you get this code, it's impossible to determine what parts need to be checked or replaced.

Providing you use your emergency brake on occassion, if not dont try it,it may stick. If you click down on emergency brake pedal slightly only 2 clicks it will turn off the headlights

Hi, there are a number of trouble codes associated with the O2 sensors. Some indicate a sensor failure and others indicate a different problem. Can you tell me the trouble code you are getting?

I just bought a used GMC sierra with the same engine. I'm considering changing it myself. I bought a Haynes repair manual. I'll post when I'm done. I don't notice any performance issues, but the Advanced auto parts guy said fuel economy would suffer. It's getting 15.6 on the highway. It's an Ext cab z-71 and it has a fiberglass bed cover.
