What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Woodblocker55]

I sought out the longer filter when I did the first oil change on mine back in Nov. I used the AC Delco PF61e

You know that AC filter is same one for Cadillac Northstar 4.6 L V8 is that one for the 5.3L or 4.8 L . Now on to the next issue .. how many quarts to a oil change in 2006 5.3 L I put on bigger wix filter and put in 5 qts checked oil today it needs another quart to get to full line on dipstick . There no leaks is it 6 quarts to oil change and new filter ?

I would'nt be surprised if it took at least another half quart

Pf59 vs pf61? IIRC anti drainback valve vs none.

Your 5.3L should take 6qts of oil.

Took a 4:am -oh **** I’m gonna miss my flight- trip in the Yukon this morning. Complete with a few fresh inches of snow, 15 degrees, to ice it all over nicely. The old girl got us there, and me home safely. Absolutely love how she does in the bad weather.

Depends on mounting location. If the can is upside down (opposite of our trucks) or sideways then I think it is necessary.

Easy does it !!!! Not a condition to be in a hurry !!

I do not know the difference between the 59 and 61 without looking them up, but the 61 is a longer version of the EOM. The "E" should me anti-drain valve, but in a vertical oriented filter like on the 5.3L, its irrelevant. No oil will ever drain out.
