VLED makes some plug n play led bulbs that have the option to use their resistor module. Requires 0 cutting or splicing of wires

Thanks erbear28, I will look them up. A link would be appreciated.

I tried led bulbs in my rear brake light housings and you could barely see them. I have these in there and they're ok.View attachment 210672 View attachment 210673

Thanks, Do you need resisters also to use them Tonyrodz?

These are my tail lights. They are slightly tinted which is one of the reasons the lights are dim.

Emptied my catch can today. I haven't touched it for over 6,000 miles--2 oil changes--and I got maybe 1-2 ozs out of it. Before the whole catch can controversy I would've thought that was good. Not so sure now.View attachment 210674 View attachment 210675 View attachment 210676
For all you chefs out there--got you a quick recipe. @Galante it's right up your alley Paison.View attachment 210677
When I had a catch can on my 6.0, I barely got any at all. Maybe it's the valley cover or the valve covers on the 6.0's that keep the blow-by down. I have since replaced my DS valve cover with the newest design that's supposed to help even more. I didn't want a catch can with my blower.

At my tune appt., Justin @BlackBearPerf told me to clean my throttle body before Thanksgiving. He was right (obviously) with TPS 12.9% at idle.

Disconnected battery and TB harness. Removed TB and used an old coolant sensor as a cork for the crossover.... Worked perfectly.

Sprayed and cleaned the intake as best I could with CRC throttle body /Intake cleaner. Used a sock and a pipe. It wasn't shining, but it was noticeably cleaner with a flashlight....

You filthy little thing, you....

I decided I would ignore all the "don't move it by hand" talk. I was CAREFUL. I pushed it closed, mostly. I took my time. I used a toothbrush with frayed bristles to get in between the body and the plate when in idle position, pushed it closed, and wiped with a microfiber cloth. Repeat x 14,000. I opened it a little just a few times gently. All cleaned up....

Reinstalled. Hooked up the scanner to watch for codes, RPM, and TPS. Decided to do the "relearn" right off the bat. Fired her up, seemed petty good. 3:00 on, 0:60 off. Repeated this a few times. No CEL. By the end, she has just about settled at a solid 600 RPM. TPS at 2.7%. A few minor fluctuations here and there, a little slow back to idle after a throttle burst. I'm sure a little driving will finish it off. Can't complain with a 10%+ decrease in TPS and no 2000 RPM idle. Happy camper over here.

Tired of not being able to see at night in reverse. So I added 2 free led pods. Already have led bulbs for reverse lights but not enough

Ok guys so I have a question. I have a 2004 Z71 suburban. I got a check tire sensor light in the DIC. I put my new tires on 6 months ago and the tire pressures and everything worked and I got my tire pressures on the display. Now since this check tire pressure monitor thing has come on now I cannot find the tire pressures at all on the display. Had the oil changed and an inspection yesterday. Asked them to check to tire sensors and he went around the truck and all of them beeped and the flashing light has never come on they this problem. But man I miss being able to see my tire pressures inside the truck. Any help? I've looked in the forum but found nothing.

You cannot read any tire pressures?

First thing is that if it worked before hand and it doesnt work now then I would go back to the shop and tell them that they screwed someting up.

I am getting to the point where I occasionally cannot read tire pressure in my (right rear) tire, I assume that it is time that the batteries get replaced. Maybe this is a similar problem?
