Incredibly easy fix for broken exhaust manifold bolts
I'm not sure if anything like this has been posted up here but I gotta share this! I am working on a customers '06 Tahoe right now with a few broken bolts on the manifolds. By chance Jim Kral had just stopped by my local NAPA. He is a local guy (lives about an hour away from me) and has...- Bennie

2002 Tahoe Fuel Pump (I hope)
Like others have said it sounds like you have a bad fuel pump. There is a fuel pressure port on the passenger side fuel rail on top of the engine, you can check for pressure there. If no pressure check the relay first. A mechanic friend of mine says he changes his fuel filter every year...- Bennie

Still have my 04 tahoe, BUT, this is different... please please help
Around here the Honda's have all been messed with as well. I would expect the oil to have a grey color to it if anything, not shaving or shine. You may have lucked out. Running low on oil is bad news though. Hope it works out. I drive a '98 Chevy Prizm for my commuter. It's a good way...- Bennie

Replacing a 4L60E on a 03 Yukun need help with last bolts
As already stated extensions and swivels. I also used ratcheting box wrenches from the top. Patients is the best tool. When it's all done you will look back and think it wasn't really all that bad. It's just a couple bolts right? :)- Bennie

How to install E-Fans
Can't speak to the Flexalite fans but the Dorman fans are top notch. Looks totally OEM, perfect fit and run much quieter than the stock belt drive fan. Best mod ever! (I'm running the Blackbear harness) I'd buy them again in a second. -

"Service 4WD" on DIC
I had basically the same thing happen on mine. From what I could tell it sounds like it's a fairly common problem. It's the dash switch assembly that's the bad part. You can order a new one from rockauto.com for about $35. I cracked mine open and resoldered all the pins on the connector and...- Bennie

Rear diff and axle shot at 236K
I bought my 2000 with 220K and a bad transmission about 6 months ago (one owner, no hitch ever installed!). I ended up doing more than I planed on. Pan gasket, rear spider gears, and so on. The thing drove fine no noise from the rear diff but I cracked it open since the truck was new to me...- Bennie

DIY: swapping cluster & keeping original odometer reading
I'm new to the forum so I'm hoping this isn't a repeat. I swapped the original cluster to add trans temp. I didn't want to have to send in the new cluster to have the ODO changed so I swapped the memory board from my old cluster in to my new one. I'm not going to cover removing the... -

comments on these Spark Plugs
I have had nothing but good results with AC Delco, NGK and Denso. I have had bad results with Bosch and E3's. It could have just been the application but I had a 3-5mpg drop when I tried the E3 plugs in my '98 4 speed and '99 3 speed Chevy Prizms. I returned them to E3 for a full refund after...- Bennie

Most miles on unrebuilt engine trans- post your pic
1st post, just bought a '00 a few months ago. I'm the second owner. It's got 220K and the engine is original. I got it for $2,800 because the original trans went out. I've only put about 500 miles on it but I love it!- Bennie
