Hi everyone,
New to this site but looks great!!!
My problem may seem stupid to most but here it is.
Over a year a ago i added a vortex cat back system and loved the power and the noise, but last night i added a cold air intake from ebay and hooked it all up and when out for the road test and loved it.........until I went to do a brake stand which usually is no problem and the throttle response warning light kept coming on and stopping what ever performance i was about to do.
So I have 3 questions

1. Has this happened to anyone else?
2. What is, if any the cure?
3. How do I get my pride back from the chevy on-lookers who say my failed burnout?

 

im not positive on the first two, but i can solve #3.

1.) hook up to the chevy
2.) put in 4x4 if you have it
3.) hold the brake until he starts to spin
4.) give it some gas and pull him around the parking lot

now whos laughin

 

thats funny, reminds of Gone in 60 seconds when he hooks the winch up to the back of the gangs car at the diner.

 

Chevys always laugh on the sidelines, mainly because they cant even participate. I dont even know what a throttle light is....

 

^^ exactly why i couldnt help on the first 2 questions.

Where is this "thottle light"? on the dash or what?

 

Give your truck sometime to learn the new air before you go doing brakestands.

 

He guys thanks for the input and as far as the light.....it's the red lightning bolt on the dash beside the temp gauge.

 

Electronic Throttle Control nag light - it trips if there is an inconsistency between the peddle position and the engine's fuel delivery.

 

Hey do me a favor, if im ever gonna buy your truck, tell me how you failed at beating it first

 

Well mudkicker...it's not for sale and usually i don't fail!!!
