What did you do to your OBS GMT400 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

%$#@! It's only got 32,000 miles on it too... Guess some NAPA parts aren't all that great, even the top-rung ones. Guess that Alaskan cold was ******* it. ACDelco parts it is then.



If only I had a job and could afford to replace it...

Yeah, I thinks it's the brass terminals. I don't know why our trucks eat these up? I had several from different manufacturers and they all corrode inside prematurely. I have yet to try the AC's though.

usually the screens are clogged on the dizzy not allowing the water/air to evaporate and move out.. thus corroding on those terminals.

installed blue leds in HVAC control and 4x4 shifter to match the cluster

Little dark it seems but good looking.

You know i was thinking the same thing but when i had mine out last year for the top end replacement I never found any screens or vent in my vortec dizzy.

I did, but then some backstabbing jacka$$ got me fired for some silly stupid ****. I'm not bitter, I swear.

sun- really? well that can be a problem in itself. the tbi ones i have all did. MSD ones have them as well. thats dumb

 

[SunlitComet]

maybe i missed it but i did not see one. that is why i want to see the dizzy assembly that msd makes for the vortec. maybe theirs might. being aluminum it would be easy to add a vent i think if it did not.

 

[retorq]

My TBI has one, my old school Mallory has one too ...

 

[SunlitComet]

have you seen one on a vortec dizzy ever?

Here is an interesting thread I found on the dizzy vents
