I was driving down the road, the truck started to stutter , shake , and then stall out. Sometimes it will run on its own (not very well) for a few seconds, sometimes it is very hard to start. With the codes I have and knowledge of the engine, I started to diagnose the issue.

So far I have replaced the following;

High pressure fuel pump and fuel line that goes to the fuel rail

Intake manifold gaskets to the heads

MAP sensor

I pulled the valve covers to check that the rockers were still moving as should, they do, so with that I believe the lifters are still good

I checked the in line fuel pressure from the tank, it is bouncing between 57-68, that is normal.

 

I have the following codes

P0106  MAP Stored

P0068 Throttle Body Air Flow Performance Permanent

P0097 IAT Sensor 2 Circuit Low Voltage Permanent

Mis-Fire on cylinder 8

 

I pulled all four O2 sensors to see if the CAT's were plugged, no better. I wasn't able to get my scope in there to see if the CAT's are plugged, I'll probably pull the "Y" pipe to see directly into the CAT's.

 

The wiring for the MAP, MAF test out correctly for function on my meter. I even pulled the MAF with the harness connected and pulled a vacuum, it worked correctly. I am thinking of swapping the TB's between my '23 and my '17 to see if anything changes.

 

I may have forgot some other things I have either checked or done.

 

Tonight, I pulled the power from the battery to see if that helps at all. I'll install them tomorrow morning and see what comes.

I am at a loss so far, and would appreciate any good help.

Have by chance check/cleaned your grounds?

 

Is your '23 6.2 under that GM recall?

I'm trying to find a schematic that shows wherethe common ground is. And, unfortunately yes, my '23 is under that recall for the motor.

Check these video out. I also have a 2017 Silverado LTZ & I did the "upgrades" shown in this video.

    • Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

    • Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
