    2002 chevy tahoe no power

    I got a 2002 chevy tahoe 5.3 L with 120000 mi cust complained of no power. I checked for codes no codes. I looked at 02s they stays around minus 12 to 16. I tried vacum leak no luck also tried alt fuel at intake. Both downstream 02s are inactive. Thanks in advance

    Hi VV
    It's pretty unlikely that a vacuum leak would cause a no power problem. I'd forget that one. Are you sure you have O2s reading a negative number? That doesn't seem possible.
    What's the fuel pressure when it has no power?

        Check in troubleshooter, and under system tip, there is a tip in there, no codes lack of power, that tells you about a very possible cause.

          Have you duplicated complaint on a road test? If yes what was fuel pressure then? Have you cleaned the MAF sensor? Those are two most causes i see with those trucks.
