awesome!

Any problems you've had and dealt with in those 250,000?

Would be a lot of help for others so they'd know these beast will make it 250,000+

WHOLE? Like inside the cab and outside? Blower motors, etc?



:lol2:


overall, that's really not that bad at all :Handshake:

Yep, work gloves, and my '351 Cleveland' extension (1" extension on the socket) makes quick work of it. Actually have about the same trouble with the front passenger side plug as I do with that back one.

That's not too bad in 250k! :waytogo: I've already done most of that at 160k other than valve cover gaskets, AC and o2 sensors but I know they're on the horizon at some point :D

I changed the inside blower motor, receiver drier, orifice tube, compressor motor, o rings, oil, and belt. It took me a Saturday to got the old ac out and the new one in. I took it to a repair shop to have it recharged. I suggest getting one of the all-in-one kits if you have to fix yours. It works great.

I wish I was lucky....my dash is cracked in multiple places. I wish GM would do something about it, knowing that they have a defective product. I have had other GM products but when this one goes, that's it for me...on to another brand. GM needs to step up their game...especially since the tax payers bailed them out.
