Replaced coolant cap. Went to top off coolant after air worked out of the system after the heater hoses and connector replacement and the top of the old cap separated from the bottom. I think the o ring was hard. I was able to twist and pry it out with curved needle nose pliers.

That happened to me in West Yellowstone a couple of years ago. Luckily there was a Napa in town and of course they had a replacement. Thank god I wasn’t driving a Kia.

I’ll check that out.

Does anyone know if a faulty BCM could affect driveability?

I changed the plugs in the Yukon today. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Even #8 was manageable without pulling the fender liner and other shenanigans. I used a 1" extension on the plug socket which gave me room to clear the exhaust manifold on one side and the firewall heat shield on the other.

Up here to the right
All loaded up for our camping trip to Lake George, Lake Champlain and the coast of Maine. Leaving in the morning. The 2012 is ready as ever to do towing duty.

Gimme a honk (or the finger.. it’s a NY thing) as you pass through NY… I’m assuming you’ll be coming up 95 to NYS Thruway (I-87) up to Albany then the Northway to Lake George. I gotta get up there again, it’s been a year or two since we’ve gone up. My parents used to bring us up all the time as kids and I started bringing my kids up every year… travel sports for the kids have kinda put a damper on mini-vacations for us. Have a good trip and watch them NYS troopers especially up by Albany….that’s where they put all the rookie troopers to start so they learn how to write up speeders… ask me how I know….. lol

Did any of the metal connectors rip off of the old wires?
