    Can't find fuel filter

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    There are 4 to 3 bolt tb adapters. I heard your current fuel rail won’t fit over the top, and the rails that fit are setup as a returnless system, which is potentially solved with a C5 fuel filter, and reprogramming for steady fuel pressure. ….in the link it sounds like he’s extensively...

    With or without side steps?

    I think it looks lower with the steps. In theory I think I should like it, but in the 3rd pic I think reality kicks in and notice things like light coming through the frame, the undulating bottom edge of the frame that works it’s way from out of sight up front to the rear lower arm mounts that...

    160 thermo. Heat spike at 107° weather.

    I wouldn’t call 220 overheating, but I don’t like to see it sustained there. 225 and I’d be concerned, and 230 I’d say something needs to change even in extreme conditions 203 doesn’t seem unusual for the conditions. In a perfect world a fan clutch would freewheel until it was needed like an...

    AC Troubleshooting

    I thought my fan clutch was working properly, but electric improved ac performance at idle. I haven’t done it, but if you wanted more, you could look into adding an electric pusher fan, even if it only covers part of the condenser it would help. Then you could keep your mechanical and the...

    I’m a big fan of electric fans, for idle ac performance. Running the oe mechanical setup?

    AC Troubleshooting

    If it’s working well, don’t mess with it. Static pressure is about meaningless unless it’s wayyy high or low. To nail the charge amount you need very accurate scales (actual ac machine). So again, if it’s performing well, I’d let it be. IIRC gm specs as little as a 30*F drop between ambient temp...

    AC Troubleshooting

    Static pressure is a function of temperature. About 70psi is normal for a vehicle that has been sitting parked with an ambient temperature about 70*F https://ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/R-134a-pressure-temperature-chart-2-650x1024.jpg …it tells you little about how...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    AFAIK yes, the lower control arm stays in the same spot and they move the hub up as high as they can in the knuckle. With 17s it looks like you have to cut the end of the lower ball joint stud off or else it would hit the wheel… and then sounds like they want you to hammer over the threads to...

    Ticking in neutral?

    Cracked flex plate would be my guess, but seeing the crack might be tough. Seems like how bad the noise is equates to how easy the crack is to find.

    Trouble with stalling when coming to a stop, '06 Denali

    What code? A wide open purge valve on a hot day with a hot engine at idle could cause a stall. So if the code was evap flow during non purge, or just a purge valve code, that could do it. If you have a leak or vent code, more likely not.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I almost thought dawn was in the instructions, but I think it was more like they want you to wash it with soap that definitely doesn’t have wax in it. Either way I used dawn as well. From what I recall I suspected that problems of unevenness might be from water remaining, or under edges, that...

    Oil Pressure Suddenly @ 80psi !

    @PNW VietVet maybe a better question than why, is what are you looking to see on a mechanical gauge? You know you don’t have 80psi of oil pressure with the key on and engine off.

    Oil Pressure Suddenly @ 80psi !

    Why not @PNW VietVet if it was anything but pegged, absolutely I used to check with a tech2 if there was anything else going on with the cluster, fuel gauge didn’t move, or 100mph in park... but I’ve never managed to fix a pegged oil pressure gauge with anything other than a sensor

    Alot of the weirdness is because of how the trucks fit in... I’ll probably have some of this wrong You could have a 1999 1500 obs or nbs truck You could have a 2000 2500 or 3500 obs or nbs truck I think all the 2000 Escalades were obs, and the nbs didn’t come out until late 2001 as a 2002 I...
