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

[jared999]

Replaced the Engine Air Filter, Cabin Air filter and Throttle body position sensor. The plastic tab on the sensor that holds the electronic plug was worn down and the plug wouldn't snap into place.
Cleaned the MAF with MAF cleaner and cleaned out the air intake box.





Best way to get those metal clips onto the Throttle Body position sensor is to use large channel locks instead of trying to press them on with your fingers




I couldn't believe how dirty the cabin air filter was, wow.

Changed plugs and wires in Deathscalade this morning. My 17 yr old was helping and a coil broke on him as he was taking a wire off. Long story short, for now I’ve replaced that coil with a Standard Ignition coil from the O’Reilly. Long term, I’m going to replace all of them so that they all match. Looking on the Summit Racing interwebz and the Summit Racing kit is $100 or more cheaper than MSD so had me curious as to made them for them.


Edit: went over to Jegs and these Mishimoto units popped up. I may give these a gander

I don't know about those specifically but in general aftermarket coils get a bad rap on the tuning boards, since they don't give you dwell time, and if it doesn't match the factory dwell settings it can run hot and shorten the life. aftermarket injectors come with data sheets but aftermarket coils don't but should. the general thought until you go stand along computer, just use oem packs, even if it's just used junkyard ones from the same type and model you already have. or if you can get them from a known different setup, find the stock tune file for that setup and copy the dwell into your tune, if you already have hptuners or the like.

this of course is guys that over think everything, I just watched a hour long video of a guy exploring the end of injector timeing video and you'll 95% never have an issue. but just info that I see for ya.



personally in these days of being almost impossible to get quality parts any more. I'd replace the broken one with a used low mileage one. even new from a dealership doesn't guarantee they are good anymore.
