Record by record

1 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

Symptom

Component named as the cause

Work done

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

    Engine Misfire and Rough Idle Malfunction Indicator Lamp

    1. 1Fault

      • Customers may complain of a MIL and/or engine misfire, rough idle, extended crank, or crank no start.
      • One or more misfire codes (DTC P0300-P0308) are found stored in the ECM.

    2. 2Finding the cause

      Possible causes

      • The condition may result from major carbon build up on the intake and/or exhaust valves due to fuel contamination or incomplete burning of the fuel.

      Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)

      1. With the engine cold, compression on multiple cylinders may read 0 PSI (= 0 kPa).
      2. The engine may pop through the intake or exhaust while cranking, and the spark plugs may be fuel fouled.

    3. 3Correction

      Repair

      1. If there is valve damage or cam followers are out of place, make the mechanical repairs first, then perform the cleaning procedure to keep the concern from returning.
      2. With the engine at operating temperature, slowly induce a bottle of GM Upper Engine and Fuel Injection Cleaner with RPM held above idle so the engine does not stall (typically around 2,000 RPM).
      3. Turn the engine off and let the cleaner soak for 2.5 to 3 hours.
      4. To complete the repair, change the engine oil and filter.

      Parts

      • Upper Engine and Fuel Injector Cleaner is P/N 88861803 (in Canada, P/N 88861804).

      Part numbers printed in the document

      The numbers are as the document prints them. The name and the replacing number are what the pages of GMPartsGiant, a reseller of genuine parts and not GM, state. Aftermarket equivalents are not checked here (the links only search by number). Confirm the fit for the vehicle (VIN) before ordering.

      Caution

      • Inducing too much cleaner at too low an RPM, or stalling the engine with cleaner, may hydro-lock the engine and bend a connecting rod.

    Remedy
    This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that have a Malfunction Indicator Lamp on or engine misfire, rough idle, extended crank, or crank no start in some cases. Technician will need to perform published Service Information diagnostics. If technician finds carbon an upper engine and valve cleaning should be performed.
