The dreaded ‘Reduced Engine Power’ on 06 Chevy

[C_Hallbert]

They didnt make a 7.3 excursion in 09, they didnt even make an excursion after 06ish.. production of the 7.3 ended in 04ish..

Dodge dropped the mechanical p7100 in 98.5, so missed it by a long shot, amd the vp44 wasnt a bad pump, the lack of fuel to it is what killed most of them.

We run narrow chassis, not wide chassis. The 450/550 isnt the same setup as a 250/350. They weigh 14,500ish and frame flex isnt a concern.

That was a typographical error. Our Excursion was. a 2000 Model.

No issues this week. I believe the TPS and throttle body I got the first time was bad. I also cleaned my K&N filter. Not sure if that had anything to do with it but it needed done.

When you installed the TPS, did you adjust it to the high end of the range?

Same thing has been going on with my 06 for a few months. Ive replaced the throttle body assembly 3 times, 2 gas pedals, 1 tac module, replaced all the pigtails to them, ran all new grounds, checked all existing grounds. Pulling my freaking hair out over this.

Been looking for a 2005 ish GM beater truck
I think I’ll start looking for a 90’s f150 with a 4.9 instead

Absolute insanity on used truck prices
anything 3k looks like recycled metal heap and might run good. 200-350k miles
3k-6k looks somewhat better but be prepared for lies and deceit. 150k- 300k plus miles
7k-10k 200,000-300,000 miles be very cautious
