01 Jimmy, has the factory alternator, battery & I'm assuming the starter is factory. Remote starting the car and cranking it manually took 6-10 seconds to get it to turn over. I replaced the battery since it was on its last leg, and I tested the alternator and it is indeed charging fine. When I drove to work this morning, I came to a stop at a light and the rpms dropped to 0 and it stalled out. Put it in park and it fired back up without hesitation. I'm almost positive the starter being bad wouldn't have affect on the idle, so now I'm thinking possibly fuel pump, ignition module, etc
With the battery and alternator ruled out, do you agree I should look to the starter next, or is there something more prone to going bad on these SUVs? Anything ignition-related possibly?
i'd appreciate input from anyone who has owned one of these 4.3 s10/jimmy/bravadas, perhaps you had the same issue.
