    That would be amazing! And they'd be rich haha, may consider investing the money into a smoke machine, can't go wrong with one.

    Does anyone have a vacuum line diagram? How many vacuum lines are there?

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    @TollKeeper Sprayed around intake ports and vacuum lines that I could see(could only see a couple) nothing happened to the idle. I forgot to do the throttle body gasket but Im going to replace while the body is off anyways. The hiss is definitely coming from the drivers side. @mattbta Will def...

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    In my most recent videos does it seem like it is misfiring still? I'm having a hard time telling if it is to be honest. Its idling how it always has but I'm wondering if its always been a rough idle and I just never paid attention to it.

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    The engine does totally fine under load, it just seems to have a slight stumble at idle here and there, and to be honest I feel it may have been doing this for a while, so I may not worry too much about it, I'll look into my vacuum lines, I may clean the MAF and TB and check that plug.

    Ive been hearing the spark sound since yesterday so 24hours probably, i'll take the plug out in the morning and check it out. I think that pulley noise may be some of the noise too.

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    Heres another little update. Its idling better than before but I still feel like theres a miss in there. It's hard to tell honestly with the pulley sounds, as that's what I might be picking up on. It is not throwing a code anymore. I'm hearing what almost sounds like a slight air hiss from that...

    You sure did call it! Thanks for the help and I'm very glad it was such an easy fix and that it didnt cost me anything! :)

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    Problem found lol! One of the new spark plug wires I installed came loose all the way in the back on the drivers side, which was causing a blatant misfire and the ticking sound was the spark from the wire jumping to the manifold

    Its throwing a code for a misfire P0300, and this only happens after I start hearing this tick Not a good sign to me

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    Heres an update video. Truck is definitely idling quite rough and it through a cel which I'll get the code for soon. I'm starting to suspect a lifter issue

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    Sounds good, I'm just scared if it backed out a bit and I go to tighten it's going to break on me. Also from my video, do you think the engine is missing? If you agree it is I may look deeper into that.

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    I dont really think it's missing much, it has good power and runs fine, it doesnt feel very shaky or anything to me, haven't had any misfire codes either. The pulleys are very worn and do make some weird sounds. Now with that being said I do notice the truck idles low at 500rpm and there is...

    2005 Tahoe Ticking

    Hello, just tonight while taking pictures of my Tahoe I noticed this ticking it's making. It's worrying me a bit, but I don't think it's rod knock at all. It almost sounds like it could be an exhaust manifold leak, or at worst a lifter problem. The sound is only heard at idle and as soon as I...

    loose steering

    Ok so after replacing there was no play or anything? it's a small amount of play but it still wiggles enough. I wonder if it's causing a lot of my steering issues/loose steering.

    loose steering

    So I wiggled my upper intermediate steering shaft, and it has a bit of wiggle every way you move it, I also hear it almost clicking/clunking slightly? Is it supposed to wiggle and stuff like this? heres the video:

    loose steering

    On both tires there is a bit of a clunk on the 9 and 3 position when wiggling. I figured it was just the CV Axles making some noise, but now it's making me question if its the steering linkage, whether it be pitman and idler arms or soemthing else.

    loose steering

    I'll check, with the engine on as soon as I start moving the wheel my tires do move, but the steering just still feels loose and not firm like it should.

    loose steering

    Alright I'll check everything out, from what I saw before the bushings and everything look alright, everything on the suspension looks okay but I'll check the linkage for play. I think the steering gear mount at the frame is alright, and how would I check if the steering shaft is worn out?

    loose steering

    Hi, so this has been a problem now for a while on my Tahoe, the steering just doesn't feel very good, the video explains most of all of it. When feeling or hearing for play the only "clunk" I hear is from the CV Axles on either side which I believe to be normal as that also happens on my other...

    So I got the cover on and put in fluid, however I dont know if I messed up with the magnet it came with. First of all one side was a bit smoother than the other and I dont remember which way I put it, and second of all in the photo on Amazon the magnet is shown put around the fill hole, but I...

    So putting in a fluid that contains some LS additive will be okay? As long as I'm not adding extra into it?
