    Oil pan!

    Thank you for the link. Havent checked it yet but everything else you have pointed me to has been of great help. Yes, I did replace lifters, push rods and rockers. Long story as to what led up to that project but suffice to say I knew the tapping I was hearing was located in the valve...

    Oil pan!

    I remember the size of the drain holes in the valley under the intake and it would be a very tight fit for that black part to have made it through. I see your point on that. I'm replacing the pump and took apart the old one. Thank you for that link to the spec/parts sheet. Will take a...

    Oil pan!

    A shot of the lines and connectors....The more I look at these connectors the more they look like a disconnet point. More than likely a specialty tool. Kind of to late to call NAPA or the dealership today. I did run to the parts store and picked up what looked like it might work, and the...

    Oil pan!

    In step #7 above it talks of pulling the thru bolts on the engine mounts, then says 2wd model. I'm working on a 4wd and made the mistake of assuming this was not intended for the 4wd but see now how that still may provide the clearance needed. I did not look at the instructions in my...

    Oil pan!

    So far no luck. Have rotated the motor around in small increments, pausing after about 1/8 turn each time, and tried again to drop the pan. Not going to give up just yet but it sure would be nice if the diffy wasnt there. Not ready yet to tackle that but.....

    Oil pan!

    darn right this is a pain in the rear Did a search and found this thread. Glad yours worked out, but now its my turn. I have pretty much everything out of the way. Last thing is the front diff. I cant seem to find a good explaination on exactly what to loosen. Mine is a 96 yukon 5.7 4x4 sle...
