My neigbour got a GMC car model '96 V8 turbo Diesel K-1500 - Z71 - Spares for that model are not obtained locally so he wants to be sure he is not going to spend his money in the wrong ones. (I suspect, only suspect, that local service people could be not really sure of what is the actual reason).
The problem: the engine in ralenti or at any speed, stops with no warning, and most of the times, refuses to start again if tried immediately. There is not a recognizable pattern associated to the failure and no additional flaws noticed prior or after it happens. Sometimes, he can start it again few hours later or maybe the next day.
He has checked that while the starter always turns the engine, diesel is NOT coming from the pump. Prior this failure started to occurr, he has experienced a solid good performance.
Somebody else got information that this is a more or less typical failure in this model, associated with the board controlling the injection part.
Could anyone one comment on this? I will pass any info you want to give.
Gracias.
