The primer should be on top of the fuel filter housing assembly..there is a small relief valve you will need to open and at the top of the fuel filter housing there will be a somewhat large domed button that you will need to push down until fuel comes out the relief...put the relief valve screw back in and your done

The Chevy instrument panels had problems with the gauges functioning. Mine says I am always doing 120mph, for the past 80,000 miles. See your dealer for a replacement. It wasn't recalled, but there was a class action suit for some of the production years which might cover replacement.

Please rate this answer. Thank you.

There is an issues that prompt the ECM to put the "reduced engine power" mode to activate. Your going to have to get the DTC code to addressed the issue so the ECM will deactivate the "reduced engine power" mode.
Thank you for using Fixya and Auto Zone can scan free of charge and give you the recommendation to address the issue and as why your engine is in the reduced power mode. Good luck

Next time the check engine light comes on go to Autozone and have the OBD read out. That will help you narrow down the problem.

that would be the instrumentation fuses. Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/sean_54c3a3dc48a7773c

check the ground system to the tank

Blower motor resistor controls this function. You need to have it replaced.

go to parts house and get a bottle of heet that is the name poor in fuel evaporates water. drain filter housing. this should solve problem.

there is a solenoid that turns it on and off, it (the lock up part) works by pressure. There is not a magic switch or valve that will turn it off. Most of the time a new torque converter is the only fix, but not always. Allison is a different bird than the GM trans. GM let us fix that at the dealer Allison would have us pull it and replace it.

have you ever blown the fuse for the horn?

PO229 indicates tps circut inttermitent.

Unless it is specified in your owners manual, you will not have an indicator. The "electronically" system will not let the engine crank over until the glow plugs have reached the correct temperature. The glow plug systems on toady's diesels are very quick and do not hesitate very long.
Hope this helps.

not good.....need to drain tank first and refill with correct fuel...then you will need to drain and flush the fuel lines and injector pump....bleed the pump and lines and injectors and cross your fingers....good luck

under the seat is a set of wires need to stay toward the back of the seat to get the correct set be sure to check power seat controls after disconnect

Most cars have a resistor pack which controls he speed for the heater blower. I would suggest locating this first and ensuring you have voltage at the terminals. On some cars, this is part of the blower motor itself.
