    New to the forum and just picked up a 84 3/4 ton 4x4 6.2L Suburban.
    Runs ok, shifts hard and seems not to want to shift sometimes, and has an issue when pulling out on to main road as it seems to want to lay down until it hit the sweet spot then she starts to take off.

    Hope to get it up and running right to keep it a diesel.

    Thanks and if your in middle tn, I would love to pick your brain sometime.

    Welcome! The first thing you must do is change the fuel filter. When they plug, they cause all kinds of random symptoms.

    We make our annual trip across the mountains to Hendersonville usually on New Year's to see my in-laws.

    Had my Sub 6.2 for 14 years or so - 303k miles currently on the original engine. It ain't the fastest but it is usually dependable and sure.
