Well SIG220,
First, Welcome to TDP. Now that said, you will want to do a search for our 12 step program. 6.5 are very addicting!
When you get your new rig, post a picture or two. Lot's to learn around here and lots of reliable information. It can save you a LOT of $$ when it comes to trouble shooting and repairs.

Thanks for the kind welcome! When I first decided to buy the truck I said to myself: "self... I am only gonna get the truck in good shape and then leave it alone." Since Ive been looking around Ive decided to do EGT/Boost gauge, intake, exhaust, pmd relocation, etc.Originally Posted by a5150nut

And speaking of troubleshooting I forgot to mention that the truck doesnt actually run!! LOL. Apparently the truck only runs for about 45 seconds to one minute before stalling, and wont run any longer than that. I pick the truck up Friday and a friend of mine and I are gonna take a look at it. If we cant figure it out its going to my mechanic who owns a few 6.5TD's himself, including a nice tahoe.

Thats one thing I was thinking. Fortunately the truck comes with a new injection pump. I havent even looked at it yet, but hopefully it will come with a new pmd mounted (?) If so I'll swap the pmd and see if that works. Thanks for the kind welcome!

I love my 6.5L Tahoe!! It's my most favorite vehicle I've ever owned. You've found the best source on the 'net for GM diesel info.
