Before you go jumping around randomly changing parts, you need to find out what codes you set. If your last mechanic did not scan it or did scan it but wont share the info... go to an AutoZone or Checker were they will do it for free. Look up the codes and start from there....

Finally, the problem was clogged cats. Actually, the driver side cat. The driver side of the engine was the one that was randomly misfiring and causing the problems. I just don&#39;t understand why it took so long. I didn&#39;t take the truck to the dealer because I figured my new mechanic was capable of fixing it. If it was the cats, wouldn&#39;t that throw a particular code. He played with every possible area. He never told me the codes. I could have looked them up myself. He fixed it and is replacing my plugs and cleaning out the throttle body to clean everything up. Next time I am going to the dealer and let the GM pros do the job. I have been without my truck for a week. With a family of five its been rough juggling kids around. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks. I got a lot of money and sweat sitting in it. 3 tvs. 2 dvd players, game port, lowered, chromed front. Escalade gauges. a few engine mods.

I just created a webpage on cardomain. I will add more pics later.
