2005 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4 Z71 5.3 Gasoline Looking for some help, I’ve talked to a few different shops about the problem I’m having. Basically my fuel gauge isn’t working it always reads empty, and before it was completely shot, it would read normally and shut off, only to come back on a few minutes later. One day it shut off, and never came back on, so I assumed it was the fuel sending unit, so I replaced the fuel pump with a Delphi, I had the same issue so I returned it for an ACDelco because I’ve had experiences with the Delphi pumps being defective, but after I replaced the Delphi with the ACDelco I still had the same problem, I just replaced the Instrument cluster last year so I’m not thinking that’s the problem, the electrical is all plugged in and there is no corrosion whatsoever. Like I’ve said I’ve taken it to shops and everyone tells me the same thing, that they’re mind boggled and can’t figure it out.. I’m stumped too. Ive looked at everything I’ve thought to look at, maybe someone can approach this at a different angle and give me some ideas of what I can do to find the issue. thanks for taking the time to read and reply. if you need to know anything else about the truck I will answer.

My 02 sonoma with the v6 4.3 will kinda shake when accelerating between 5 and 10 Mph, If I accelerate somewhat slow then it seems fine and really dont shake but if I gas it like im in a hurry it shakes and then disapears and it is smooth as can be. The shaking seems to be coming from the engine area behind the dash. I have replaced the spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, cleaned the mass air flow sensor, cleaned the throttle body intake, just yesterday I took the distributor cap off and inspected the points on the inside of the cap and they were all corroded up so i cleaned them up the best I could so they still appear unperfect although they look much better than before. What else might be he problem? EGR valve? ignition coil pack? the whole distributor? you name it and ill check it guys. I appreiate anyone that can help me out. I will be online alot so I respond quick.
