P300 2004 Silverado 1500 5 3

Chasing the p300 code. Put a new engine from Jasper an new injectors in order correct the P300 due to valve being worn decided to replace the whole engine. I am lost on what is causing the problem. Fuel pressure is at 62psi. Not sure if it's the computer is messed up no codes show bad computer. Any suggestions

Does it crank over?

Those guys over there will get you on the right track for sure. Top notch crew on their forums. Seems depending on the topic over here will dictate how much of a response you'll get. I will post this thread over there as well and see if any of the guys will venture over here to lend a hand.

May help if you took the time to form understandable sentences IMO.

You ever perform a CASE relearn on it after the new engine was put in?  That stands for crankshaft angle sensor error.  Any shop with a decent scanner can do it and it takes 30 seconds.. or anyone with HP tuners or efilive.  If you didn't thats a good chance it's your random misfire cause.

Well you missed something so go over it again lol.  If you didn't have the issue prior.. swapped the engine and now you do... it's something you did lol.  You can swap pcms and see but they don't just randomly go bad unless you fried it somehow on install.

It the same issue as before. The truck has 200k on it. Originally the valve train was causing the P300 decided to replace the engine. With high mileage decided it would be the best option.

Well that changes it a lot... so obviously it wasn't the old engine and whatever was wrong with it at this point because the new one still does it as well.  I would say get a scanner on it with someone that knows what they are looking at and drive it.  You probably will get a better clue.  What sensors did you reuse?

Well unless I come and look at the truck there isn't much more than spitballing.  Burn it and collect insurance... hahahaha.  Seriously though it could be a wire in a harness on either the coils or the the injectors that is either worn through, broken or broken inside the jacket and sometimes makes contact and sometimes doesn't.  Same for any ground or power from the fuse block.  It could also be a pin in one of the harnesses not making good connection anymore.   Burning it would be a lot easier lol

Yikes haha.  Well you can try the computer but it's probably seeing something it doesn't like and then the misfire occurs.  Sometimes that stuff can be flat out a nightmare.  My own 2013 6.2 Silverado has a random P0335 code and goes into limp mode here and there.  GM started trying to fix it when the truck had less than 5000 miles on it and today it's still there lol.  

 

I just bought the truck but i checked it out prior to buying it and the warranty history was colorful.  I will get it though

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
