First posting for me here,
I just did some major work on my 04' GMC Envoy SLE. I replaced the front cover, oil pump and pickup tube (installed a Melling oil pump and pick up tube), found a broken chain tensioner shoe ( the plastic part was broken and was sitting in the oil pan) so I replaced the chain and all the related parts ( aftermarket items used) along with a rebuilt exhaust cam actuator and gear ( GM rebuilt unit). I replaced the VVT solenoid because it was leaking oil into the electrical connection ( AC delco VVT installed). I got everything together and it has started and I have no codes. However, the throttle response is not good and I seem to only get about 3000 RPM and it stalls at idle sometimes with the AC running. There is a little hesitation throttling up with a little rattling sound before the throttle up. I'm thinking I may have the timing off a tooth... I did check this several times before I buttoned everything up. Is there a way to check the timing without tearing this all down again or should I just dive back in and see what I could find? Let me know your thoughts on this...
Thanks
