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

[Just Fishing]

I think you can do a lot better than $4K for a short block. :0

Frankly, given all the new stuff you already have in it, if you have a decent machine shop nearby, just pull it, mount it on a stand and rebuild it yourself. These are pretty simple engines.

that's the pita part, if metal ruins the good stuff i already have then fk!
but it looks like the metal is super small, so a good cleaning and recyle will probably be gtg.

mini panic mostly, just got done patting my self on the back for a job well done earlier today, and then i see glitter.

me all

I found some cheep booze my wife bought a while back.
Not my usual (upper) middle scale booze....

Time to sample it.

Plus shipping.....

Don't forget packaging and handling. Coming on Fedex lol?
Crazy. Have you tried your local dealer instead?

Well, since I had a new ignition switch ordered, I went ahead and installed it on thedeadhoe. No joy, but it was worth a shot in case of a sneak circuit.

In other news, fir those who have remote start, what is the procedure used to start your Hoe from the fob?

not sure if there’s a virgin sacrifice or if it’s simpler than that.

Press the lock button, then hold the little circle arrow button for a few seconds (the button between the lock and unlock button)

Well, I had the remotes ready but I need the tech2 as well. A few more days.

I wanted to make sure I knew the procedure to use the remote. I’ve only had it on one vehicle, a fjord.

I sliced a chunk out of my filter, had some little pieces but with a new camshaft and lifters, it looked pretty good.
And those mobile one filters are pretty stout!

the little sparkles what ever they are, appear to be small enough to pass through the filter.
And they do not appear to be magnetic in any way.


took the hoe around the block again, got the rpm up pretty high with the oil pressure gauges pinned.

damn thing sounds just perfect, so in another 500 miles or so I'll replace the filter and cut it open again.
Maybe do a black stone thing at the same time, or wait for another 500 after that to ensure i get a good reading.

What did you do to rebuild your rockers? I’m thinking that could be brass from the bushings most upgrade kits use, maybe you pressed one or two too tight.

you "might" have to do a relearn on the ignition if you replaced the cylinder, not completely sure though on my 2012 there is a separate security ring module that goes around the end of the cylinder, if the security light stays lit with the key in the on position then that is your sign. On my nbs there was a sensor in the cylinder housing and I think it had to be relearned if the cylinder was replaced. did you re-key it? so you wont have to carry around 2 keys?

If I'm going to do this updated valve cover, what all would I need? Would the new cover come with a new gasket? Anything to clean inside?

I don't really want to tear into this as it's my daily and can't afford to be without it. I'm ok with cleaning inside and parts, but really replacing other stuff is not on the priority list.
