02 buick rendezvous chugging stalling no check engine light?
Answer
you need to have someone check the fuel pressure. it may be low. have them check the connector under the backseat to the pump as it is common for corrosion and resulting in poor driveability.
Roy
if i check the pressure and its low should i change the whole pump itself or just the harnest.
i would investigate the connector first to see if it has failed before the pump, if it is bad
Roy
had pressure checked it was low, i checked the connector and its was very corroded. should i replace the connectors or try to clean them. if i have to replace them can i do it myself or should try to take it in?
went to see if i could get new connectors at autozone. they pulled a harness with only one conector on it. Not sure if im asking for the right thing! also checked some online store seen the samething! Is it only one of the connectors that go to the pump or do i buy two pigtails connectors and try to find the square white one. cant seem to find a harness with all three on there! Guy from part store said there may have been a change from gm do you know anything about something like that?
this is a dealer item only and the connector is a common failure. they sell the piece you need for about 30 but you have to change over all the wires.

Is this something I can do as a novice mechanic lol! Or should I have the shop take care of it. And do you think this will fix the stalling and sputtering because I cant even drive the vehicle right now with these symptoms.
cant tell you if it will fix it or not. this must be done and continue the diag. you wont know till this is done.
i suggest a shop to do this for you if you are not comfortable doing this. we charge 1.5 hours just for that repair.
