It is killing me. Snows like a foot a day up here sometimes. Do you think I roof spoiler on the back would help? Like that connect above the door.

a silverado or sierra (preferrably a crew cab from 00-02) would be perfect.

Thanks guys. An 03 Tahoe is being parted out but I am not sure on the interior color. I also gotta get the running boards. this thing while not lifted is lacking running boards and I got a pregnant GF that is 4'10'' and is not having much fun getting into it.

has anyone ever seen a mod to get wipers on the back? Because DAMN! It snows a lot in my area. And that entire back window gets covered in about 2-5 minutes out.

Look on CL for the running boards. I've never seen the rear wiper option for barn doors.

Oh ok. Thanks good looking out because I was about to get dressed and head out. Now I gotta check locally again. Will silverado or sierra work as well?

I believe so. Look for 99-2002 silverado and sierra.

Alright so today I went down and got some parts. I replaced the PCV Valve... However in the process I noticed there is a crack/break in the plastic hose. I gotta go pick one up soon though it obviously is still running. I also got a new air filter for it.

Here is some comparisons to the old vs new set ups.

Old air filter and the new one.



Cleaned my MAF though it did not seem really dirty. Oh well did not hurt anything.



The old one. Looks to be the original AC Delco one.




The new one.

Haha yeah I know and that is after i slammed it around to get the dust out of it the best I could yesterday. I know it is not some fancy CAI yet however I am really more concerned with it getting back to OEM good running order. I will upgrade to an Air Raid or AEM or something more performance minded after I get all the check engine lights fixed.

Now I need to replace spark plugs and wires. I have a feeling the guy was full of crap when he told me he did a tune up. I also need to replace the tube that connect a PCV valve.

 

[07Burb]

Didn't you say they gave it a tune up a month ago??? That's a lousy tune up on their part if so!

But the guy I bought it from was an ethiopian and seemed a little sketch.. and was a driver for a limo and shuttle service. So I trusted about 10% what he had to say.

I just am making conclusions based on the issues with the CEL now. And the fact that I went under looked at the Oil Filter and it looks really old.
