Amazon fell thru. I ordered two jugs of oil and the filter at the same time and the oil isn’t going to arrive til the 21st. Im working a half day tomorrow so I’ll go buy a third jug at wal mart. Someone said RockAuto- I like rock auto, I’ve bought some stuff there. They wouldn’t let me return a...
Woof. Its been a hell of a month. What did I do yesterday? Something dumb. Let me elaborate. I buy my oil and filter on amazon. Well, my phone broke, and of course thats when Amazon and its 2FA decided to sign me out on my computer, and I couldn’t sign in because I couldn’t get the confirmation...
Yeah thats what I was thinking. We use those all the time at work, i’d probably go crazy and add a bunch of Hondabond around the base because there’s nothing I despise more than water leaks. The only thing I worry about then is the wire bend above the headliner and then the MC4 bends below the...
Have any of you mounted a solar panel to your luggage rack? I’m trying to think up the best way to do this. My main hurtle is how to get the PV cables thru the roof.
Filled up with gas... and now my gas gauge is flopping around between full and empty. Woooo. Anybody want to place bets on if its the sending unit or the cluster?
I had to cut the boot and contort my wrist in an odd way to manually actuate the secondary latch, and then crank it down and get this crazy sticky grease off my hands to get mine down. Then I promptly took out all the bolts holding the winch in, and set the whole assembly up on a shelf...
Speaking of pulling a dump trailer... work said they may be handing out bonuses again this year. If thats the case I’ll be placing the order for the tbc, rear coil springs, and rear shocks this week.
Made it home, nothing to report. Checked fluid, just slightly above warm full notch. Temp was 178 as I pulled in the driveway, which sounds about right.
here’s an exhaust idle clip for you.
Walked in door, was greeted by these two fluffballs.
This is the correct answer. Partially my fault for not checking as soon as I got it back from the shop. Right after that last post I took it for a spin. Drove 20 min easy, and then I just ran it through the gears pretty hard, felt good. I’m now going to drive it home easy and then see how I...
Copy that. Thanks Boss. I may actually go check it out now. LAST time when I lost the trans was on the way to work, the converter never locked up (something that happened on my S10 once as well. A replacement valve body solved it) but on the tahoe, the trans temp hit 190 on a 29* morning, and...
Main downsides for the stickshift swap for me- are the bastard of a time I’ll have with everything UNDER the center console, and the insane amount of time that will be spent mounting the pedals. Nothing about that will be easy.
However, compared to doing a 6L80, I would be able to mount a...
This thing doesn’t leak anything other than water from the AC drain, and the read diff drips once every couple of days. I hate to say it but I almost think this shop did the same thing last shop did and didnt top off fluid after reinstalling transmission. Ugh.
. Cool. I just checked out some of your thread. I took the long way home, and so far, the 4L60e feels happy now that it has fluid in it up to the full line. We’ll see how it does this week too and from work. I tell you what though if it goes and the shop/Gm tries to give me the runaround I’m...
I may be going into another round of transmission issues. I got some more slip on the way to the hardware store today. Checked fluid and was a quart low. Added a quart. Going to drive around and pray the slip goes away. Damnit!
Have any of you crazies done an NV4500 swap?
Its on its 3rd 4L60e and second engine.
However, its mainly operator error and not the fault of the vehicle (mostly).
First trans snapped a band and PO rebuilt the whole thing instead of repairing what was broke.
First engine ate an AFM lifter at 222,000, so I had the whole engine replaced...
