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

[Just Fishing]

cheap, amazon special.
It was more of "lets see if this works!"

it holds one gallon.
Just big enough to take your standard size service pistol if taken down.

a Sig P226 frame barely fits.

I want a larger (nicer) one.

How was the pickup screen?

Not too bad, had some crud coating it.
the screen it self was very clean, nothing plugging etc.

Bottom of the pan under the plate had some good crud.

Getting dark soon, time to get this b together!

Changed the front hubs on thenewhoe. While I was down there, I did the sway bar links too. Holy carp, they were terrible. Both hubs were leaking.

VVT he’s talking about. Some Honda ***** that makes it sound more like arse when a certain rpm hits.

That sewing machine sound?

This is the first vehicle I've owned that I've noticed this sound, just figured it had something to do with the valvetrain or timing chain setup.

Hopefully all this work will benefit your oil pressure.

Hopefully
I also found that pressure relief thing in the pan was pretty nasty
lots of crud in it.

I flushed it out as good as i could.
I wanted to remove it and clean, but rain tomorrow and was getting dark.

Lights broken out, hoping to have this mostly together tonight.

So the torque specs are confusing on this.
I thought i had the pan figured out at 106 inch pounds

Found this in the FSM
• Tighten the oil pan-to-block and oil pan-to-front cover bolts to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).

• Tighten the oil pan-to-rear cover bolts to 12 N·m (106 lb in).


Does that sound right, or am i gtg @ 106inch pounds?

 

[Just Fishing]

18ft lbs for those little bolts seems excessive.
seems like it will crush the crap out of that gasket...

About to put the axle into place... ugg lol

 

[Just Fishing]

I'm exhausted, calling it for tonight.
Sounds like i need to loosen the rack again and tighten the rest of the bolts, unless anyone has some insight.

Also, i didn't get pictures, but my pickup tube came out spotless and shiny silver.
Same with that plate on the bottom of the pan.

Pan it self, mostly spotless had some yellow/brown spots here and there

Well on day I'll have my hoe back on the road.
Now relaxing with a little rum.

Forgot i took this, took a drive up to one of my favorite lakes around here (bear lake)
Water is super clear and blue, it's just missing white sands and coronas w/tacos.

Decided to jump out even though it was freaking cold and windy to take a picture, the truck was actually clean.
Lately it has a nice ash soot layer...
