Runs Like A Freight Trainmad1517 11-27-2006, 08:26 PM I have a 1992 GMC Sierra 5.7 TBI, in the summer or warm weather truck runs great.Winter or cooler temp runs like a freight train, very hard to shift.engine races when push clutch in at stop signs.I let it warm for few minutes but doesnt really help,seems to calm down within 5 miles or 15 min.I replaced the heat risor from manifold to TBi didnt really help.also tried cleaner on throttle body.any help would be great.Thanks Tom 2000CAYukon 11-28-2006, 02:07 AM Sounds like your Engine Coolant Temp sensor is bad or possiblely a vacuum leak that happens only in the colder weather. Use a scan tool or volt/ohm meter to see if the temp sensor is working properly. ECT sensor is located in the intake manifold near the tstat. //2000CAYukon mad1517 11-28-2006, 07:20 PM Thanks for the help. Tom vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
