You have a Z engine code.
Does you owners manual have any info on it? Anything on fuel filler cap? I do not think the Z engine is flex fuel. But give your GM dealer a call and have him decode the vin No. for you. Let us know what you find.

I looked on Auto Zone web site and the show a 02 Tahoe 4X4 Z engine 5.3 is flex fuel.
But be sure to call dealer to double check.

Re: how to check if flex fuel??
i went to the gm chevy dealer they told me they did not make a flex fuel tahoe in this year they checked the vin and everything so i dunno the cap i got on it is a aftermarket cap i bought myself and dont have the owners manual lol
but on some websites it does ask if this is a flex 5.3l cuz i was goin to get a programmer cuz got 35s on it and body lift ect... so i dont know if i just got a retarded gm parts person when i asked or not lol |

Re: how to check if flex fuel??
you do have a 5.3Z Flex Fuel Tahoe. all of the gas caps for that year are the same for the 5.3T,6.0U,4.8V,5.3Z,4.3X,8.1G,4.3W,6.0N

Re: how to check if flex fuel??
L59 is the RPO code for the 5.3L flex fuel engine...look for it on the sticker in the glovebox.
