| 2003 HD stalling Hi, I am new and have just bought a 2003 GMC 2500 HD with a 6.0. The altenator was garbage so I replaced it . Now the truck stalls when put in gear or at stop lights. Also replaced sparkplugs,fuel filter,battery,belt and air filter. Check engine was also on when I bought the truck. I assumed it was on because of the alt. The truck run down the perfect for 177,000 miles and also idles fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |

| sounds like a partially open egr valve creating a vacumm leak. Did you put a scan tool on it? It might give a better indication of the problem |

| double check your wire connections maybe one is grounding out. check the battery connections and make sure the cables aren't rubbing somewhere |

| sounds like a blown fuse, does the cigarett lighter work? usually thats the circuit that acts up for scanning. double check all the fuses if that is not it. |
