Where do you get it? I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

Site looks super old school and ordering seems like a scam site because it is outdated, but it's legit.

Order 4 separate quarts as its cheaper to ship, if you buy a full gallon you get hit with a hazmat shipping charge plus shipping.

Best to do the "Google deal" on the aerokroil. 2 big cans for $14 ish (5.95 shipping), then tack on the kreen quart(s) and the shipping will stay at 5.95 for the whole order.

There is no order confirmation page or anything. If you really want /need to, you can call over there and confirm your order and total. They don't ring your card until they ship, either. And you'll get a paper invoice for $0 in the mail a day or two after you get the package.

Kano Labs is the bomb!

So after owning my Yukon for one year, it was time to renew my registration and get an annual motor vehicle inspection.

I surprisingly failed for the following reasons:
  • HID Aftermarket Low Beam Bulbs
  • Right Turn Signal Activates Hazard Lights
  • Excessive Play in the Front End
Apparently HID lights that are not OEM have been illegal in Massachusetts for the past three years. So I had to go get a pair of incandescent bulbs and "install them for a re-inspection". The HID lights were in the Yukon when I bought it last year. The dealer I purchased it from handled the registration and inspection, so the inspection station either missed the lights, or looked the other way for the dealer.

I replaced the turn signal flasher relay under the dash with a GM replacement module that is an updated/upgraded unit since this seemed to be a common failure point in '03-'06 models. It seems to have solved the problem.

I tracked the excessive play to a set of worn Pitman and Idler Arms. While I was in there I also replaced the Idler Bracket since it was out and one less tapered joint I had to break, and it didn't look like any of them had ever been greased. After installing them I cleaned out all the grease points on the front end, and greased all the joints until the boots puffed back up. After that I took it for an alignment where they corrected the toe. Overall the job went well, but my arms and neck are going to be sore for a few days after wrestling the old ones out.

If anyone is interested these are the parts I ordered from Amazon. They all worked well, had great fitment, and seemed better quality than the parts I removed.
I also took the opportunity to buy a nice cordless magnetic swivel LED work light. I don't know why I waited so long to get one. I can't imagine doing the steering work without it.
Thanks for helping me spend money on a work light. Actually I've been trying to use a different LED one that isn't magnetic and it's always a pain. That one looks like it will be way better.

Few if any believed me when I advised this stuff is legit on here
Please reinform us. I missed this- what's the reason for this and what are the benefits? And is there any possible downside to using it on a high mileage engine?

Changing the water pump in my 2005 today. Broke this plastic Y coupler. Anyone know what it's called so I don't have to confuse the parts store guy? Goes from pump to reservoir and the other I believe is the return from the heater core. 3f933d0be0ad0c41bec0a5087106d8a5.jpg
