Other than some minor tweaks to the transmission and door locks, not much changed for the GMC Savana passenger van in 2001. The Savana offers 2 different powertrains: a 4.3 L, 200 hp V6 model and a 5.7 L, 255 hp V8. In addition, this van has 3 doors and comes in 5 trims: the G1500, G2500, G2500 Extended, G3500, and G3500 Extended.
Gas mileage typically amounts to 13 mpg in the city and 18 on the highway, which some may consider a bit thirsty. Seating capacity allows for 8, 12, or 15 depending on the trim. All trims have standard air conditioning and ABS brakes, along with optional cd player, power windows, power door locks, and power seats. Max towing capacity can go anywhere from 6600 to 10000 lbs. The Savana uses rear wheel drive to power the vehicle.
Overall, drivers like the engines and roomy interior. However, they wouldn't mind improved steering and hipper styling. Most experts would recommend the 2001 Savana for anyone looking for a long van that won't get mistaken for the Shaggin Wagon. For more modern features and stronger powertrains, look for something from 2003 or later.
I recently purchased a 01 GMC Savana 1500 with a 5.0. Shortly after purchase it started cranking but wouldn't fire. The issue is intermittent. The fuel pump and fuel filter were both replaced. When the vehicle won't start the fuel pump also doesn't run. The relay was taken out and tested at a local shop and showed good. Old relay was reinstalled and vehicle decided it would start...for now. Any suggestions?
The battery is fine
Ive replaced the fuel filter, distrib and rotor still cranks but wont start. Sprayed starting fluid in the intake and it ran breifly. What else shud I chk?
I have no turn signals changed all fuses they came on for a second now don't work checked all fuses and they are good even the big one under the dash has anyone else had this problem
