Tonyrodz's Tahoe Build Thread

Follow the instructions on their website step by step. It’s here. http://www.blackbearperformance.com/autocal_management.asp


Did you save the file after data logging? Look at the instructions for copying files to and from your Autocal. You need to create a folder on the pc where you can store the data log and tune files. I have a folder I created for the Denali and in that folder I created a folder titled Autocal tuning files, then in that I keep the datalog files. Then I also created a folder I named “from Blackbear” and in that folder are my tunes that they sent me. You’ll need to be able to find these files and transfer them to and from the Autocal. Here’s some pics of the folders on my pc.

Just emailed them. Thanks AGAIN @Rocket Man. Sometimes I'm a little dense with certain things.

It's amazing how lack of airflow will make AC feel completely broken.

I'd say it's not a huge concern unless the oil itself looked sparkly. I'd like to have seen inside the oil filter because that tells a lot more than the drain plug but I don't think I'd worry about it either way. Plus theres not much you can do to fix it without major engine tear down and unless it developes other symptoms once again I wouldn't worry.

Thx @Dantheman1540. I thought the same thing--it's out of my hands. BTW--The oil didn't look sparkly, but come to think of it, it look a little gray on the rag. Idk about this damn truck.

If your worried change it again sooner than later and when you pull the oil filter let it completely drain into a separate bowl preferably a clear one. Then take a flash light and shine while moving a stick or your finger around stirring it slowly.

But for real I wouldn't worry if it's got good OP and doesn't make weird noises.

It does have good oil pressure. Around 40 psi when it's warm.

Damn, me too! Shipping would've been a ***** I think. With my Summit bucks I paid $245 shipped.
