1999 Chevy Tahoe. I have DTC Code P1416 code for bank 2.

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

Did you clear the code with a Scan Tool after replacing the valves?

The 1998-2001 Chevrolet Tahoe has a known issue with the air pump check valve which causes illumination of the check engine light. There are no notable symptoms, but the vehicle will not pass state inspection or smog testing. When the valve fails, it sticks closed, and the computer sets the code P1416.Dec 10, 2016

have your cars computer codes read at a parts store. there is something wrong with your vehicle that it is retarding the ignition and doing other things to protect itself from damage due to some problem with engine....your codes should give you specific details on whats wrong.

03 Chevy Tahoe stalls out while taking a slow

have the a/c compressor checked, the a/c compressor might be locking up due to wear and bad bearings. one way to test is to try turning the compressor clutch while the ENGINE IS OFF, if the clutch is very hard to turn or won't turn at all by hand then the compressor is bad. the clutch is what turns the pully, the pully should spin freely, the compressor clutch is on the end of the compressor on the pully side.

PO179 CODE

P0179 Fuel Composition Sensor Circuit High Input. May have got some bad fuel somewhere. I would erase your codes and see if it comes back. If it does I would take your vehicle to the stealership to have it diagnosed a little further. Thanks for using fixya.

Sincerely,

IC
