Re: Camming the kid's 5.3. Yeah...no

Let's get baby penguin's thread on track.

- New shoes are in a plane from MN, tires are picked out and will be mounted likely next month after winter break up

- I have a p0300 and p0174 active, and we have done just about everything. Today I am going after an o2 sensor since it is a B bank code. Very odd. I thought for sure the intake gasket yesterday was going to fix it. It is driving me nuts, currently.

Thanks for the info Scotty. Looks like he is just going back with the 1500 stuff, and he should have everything next week to put it back together. It will go to the body shop after that for some dings and paint damage to the front edge of the hood.

Haven't been on here much lately. I'm glad your son is OK...that's the important part.

It appears things are coming together to get it repaired. A good father/son repair project. :D

Good luck on the codes. I'm sure you will get it figured out.

My CEL came on this week so I need to see what code I have to deal with myself.

Fixed! Well, sorta.

Replaced pre-cat o2 sensor, made it run even worse, same codes, more frequently and dead flat miss. Replaced post-cat o2, bingo, p0174 gone. Still a slight miss and an p0300. SeaFoamed, fouled a plug almost instantly, p0308. Cleaned # 8 and ran the piss out of it, and that is when it blew huge chunks of the passenger side cat out the tailpipe :D2

Time for headers. Hitting up Jenna on a quote for headers and catted Y-Pipe, and an Autocal.
