I'm currently in slave lake AB doing a project here for the winter,
I haven't been happy with this engine's performance in my 99 c2500 burban,.
so poking around has led me to the stepper motor, it does'nt move, so on the bench i put power to the pins, it hiccups slightly in one direction but not the other. Somebody had messed with this stepper and used it to wedge the pump advance arm/lever into one spot.
I had my suspicions last summer when a friend tried to set the timing with his fancy tech computer, and every time the engine had a coniption and we'd cancel the command. It has never set an SES code. It does now i have the stepper unhooked, it fires up fine, i can move the advance manually and it definitely makes a huge difference. The engine does not sound over advanced or retarded, just sounds ok with stepper off
Does anyone have a good stepper motor they would part with?
thanks
