Fuel/Propulsion System
The tahoe used as our volunteer fire department medical truck was spewing fuel from above the gas tank. We dropped the tank and found the lines on the top of the fuel tank rusted severely to the point of failure. It was first noticed on a medical run with the engine idling.

Vehicle registered "reduced engine power" while i was on the highway, i was able to get to the shoulder, online research showed numerous incidents involving the throttle body sensor and the wires crimping, there was something about the wiring harness being covered by gm but it does not appear on a recall list. *tr

Top of the fuel pump and those related fuel lines failed leading to a significant fuel leak, and really expensive repair. This truck is ten years old, fuel system parts shouldn't be rusting out like this. No other vehicle i've ever owned, no matter how old, has had an issue like this. Life safety and fire risk! *tr

I drove it to a mechanic that i have been using for many years. He told me that he had…
