What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Not to stray too far into the boring and off topic, but to me, that's exactly why Youtube (and other places) is so bad for humanity. No longer do we have to use ingenuity. Just Youtube it. We'll all look like the people from Wall-E.

Haven't seen Wall-E yet.

To remain on this thread's topic:

I replaced the crappy drain valve on my catch can. The handle just spins cuz I "didn't stop right when it felt like it was gonna go soft". I torqued it to 2.7 grunts last time I closed it. It snapped and free-spinned and that's where it stayed. Upgraded to a 1/4-turn ball valve- Five minute/$8 upgrade.

"Grunts" are not a German torque metric. You have skillz, though.

Is that a phone camera? Looks awful high quality from here (though I've had some wine).

I'm neither classy or privileged enough to use the Güdendheit torque metric. Cro-Magnon has always been more my style.

Skillz? Thanks, but it was just a screw-out/screw-in replacement. These things should come with such a valve.

You've had some good wine. It's an iPhone 5S that's over 5 years old and it's picture capabilities reflect that.

It is good wine. Apparently very good. Or maybe your skills aren't limited to vehicles?

Yeah I did that too. Don’t see why they’d use the silly drain **** valve [emoji107]

I never even open the valve. I take the whole thing out of the truck, open her up and go after it all with a Tupperware and some brakleen. It's all part of my enlightening like @iamdub.
