Helicoil time!

 

[Just Fishing]

I’ve been gone a while trying to wrap things up with a house I just recently closed on. Now I finally have some time to get back to working on the Denali.
Read end is done (Diff Cover, sway bar links, bushing, brackets, bolts, track bar) - photos to follow.
Trans Pan, trans flush, filter, transfer case. Between the broken dipstick tube introducing dirt/debris and the previous owner never changing the fluid, I’m worried how long my transmission is going to last.


Question for those Tech2 owners. Can you use the SD flash card on any device and make it a “Tech2” or is there something specific that’s needed which the Tech2 (or look-alike) “body/computer” has? The reason I’m asking is because I have an Autel that has been a great unit for working on all kinds of vehicles, and am wondering if I can use it loaded with the latest Tech2 flash card.

Basic computer stuff here.
Lots of details why, but that autel would need some sort of emulator in order for that to even have a chance of working.

Whaaa. I never thought of doing that. I thought they had to be up high and before the cat. Obviously I've never looked into this much

The difference before and after car is negligible so it doesn’t matter

*Edit* nevermind, just saw the threads

Mine looks like that every oil change in the last 45,000mi.

I'm still collecting parts for a "rebuild" dod delete.

My Yukon looks like that every oil change since new. Has 37k miles now. Typical wear I suppose

Looks to me like the threads were already stripped and somebody helicoiled it and that failed as well. Need to figure out a fix that doesn’t involve pulling the pan or replacing it.

Where i left off last night!



I really wanted to get the oil system primed before i attached any accessory belts.
Got nearly 40psi cranking w/o plugs.
I think the 6.2 starter cranks a little slower than the 5.3 started did...


Next get the rest installed, front axle bolted in all the way, wheels on.
then i get to see if i can pull the hoe out of the garage a bit, kuz i get to remove that 87 octane fuel from the tank!

No kidding?
I understood it would fk with your output.
I figured it would show lean or some nonsense.

it would be much easier if i could install downstream more.

otherwise, things...
but we don't talk about fight club.
