My neighbor has a '99 Escalade with 199k on the clock. He reports occasional power loss, typically when climbing. Says if he pulls off the road it sometimes surges and idles poorly. Stalled once.
He says sitting for 5 minutes and restarting solves the issue. Allegedly fuel filter replaced recently.
No codes. No misfire codes. No pending codes.
Typically I'd think fuel pump here. Will put a gauge on it.
However apparently the poppet style CSFI can also cause similar symptoms?
If it were the CSFI, would you expect to typically see misfire codes?? Or can you see power loss across the board with no individual cylinder called out? And if it were the CSFI, would a 5 minute "timeout" clear the symptoms?
