1999 Yukon Denali

[Oh Bob Saget]

Hello, I have a 1999 Yukon Denali. It looks to me to basicly be the escalade from that time period as its not the 1999 tahoe and its not the 2000 tahoe. It has the squared grille and the 5.7. I need a manual and step by step info on how to replace some things that are failing. I was wondering if any of you could point me in the right direction to a manual that would help me with this?

Seems i have an oil leak on my intake manifold and it needs to be resealed.
I also have a coolent leak and the coolent lines? need to be replaced?

Any help would be great. Also if any of you have suggestions on what else i should be replacing while im fixing this stuff that would be great too. Im no mechanic , i just cant afford to have the dealership fix this right now.

Again thanks!

Technically no oil runs thru the intake manifold but there is a oil pressure switch in the back of block near it. Is that where you see the leak?

For the coolant leak where exactly is it coming from? your question is unclear.

[Oh Bob Saget]

I had some work done at the dealership. They said i has an oil leak at the intake minfold. And said my coolent lines needed to be replaced. Other then that im not sure.

As the distributor is being installed, observe the rotor moving in a clockwise direction about 42 degrees .
Once the distributor is completely seated, the rotor segment should be aligned with the mark on the distributor base in location number 1.




If the rotor segment is not aligned with the number 1 mark, the driven gear teeth and the camshaft have meshed one or more teeth out of alignment.
In order to correct this condition, remove the distributor and reinstall it.

Refer to Installation Procedure 2 for proper distributor installation.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE 2


http://www.alldatadiy.com/alldata/AFI%7EV27358817%7EC33210%7ER0%7EOB0%7EP3R0H%7EN/0/70910848/78153753/78154197/78154199/34853741/100411974/34853743/58948514/34849806/105637708/84852784



IMPORTANT: Rotate the number 1 cylinder to Top Dead Center (TDC) of the compression stroke. The engine front cover has 2 alignment tabs and the crankshaft balancer has 2 alignment marks (spaced 90 degrees apart) which are used for positioning number 1 piston at Top Dead Center (TDC) . With the piston on the compression stroke and at top dead center, the crankshaft balancer alignment mark (1) must align with the engine front cover tab (2) and the crankshaft balancer alignment mark (4) must align with the engine front cover tab (3).



Rotate the crankshaft balancer clockwise until the alignment marks on the crankshaft balancer are aligned with the tabs on the engine front cover and the number 1 piston is at top dead center of the compression stroke.


http://www.alldatadiy.com/alldata/AFI%7EV27358817%7EC33210%7ER0%7EOB0%7EP3R0H%7EN/0/70910848/78153753/78154197/78154199/34853741/100411974/34853743/58948514/34849806/105637708/84852785





Align white paint mark on the bottom stem of the distributor, and the pre-drilled indent hole in the bottom of the gear (3). NOTE: The OBD II ignition system distributor driven gear and rotor may be installed in multiple positions. In order to avoid mistakes, mark the distributor on the following components in order to ensure the same mounting position upon reassembly:




The distributor driven gear
The distributor shaft
The rotor holes


Installing the driven gear 180 degrees out of alignment, or locating the rotor in the wrong holes, will cause a no-start condition. Premature engine wear or damage may result.




With the gear in this position, the rotor segment should be positioned as shown for a V6 engine (1) or V8 engine (2).




The alignment will not be exact.
If the driven gear is installed incorrectly, the dimple will be approximately 180 degrees opposite of the rotor segment when the gear is installed in the distributor.




Using a long screw driver, align the oil pump drive shaft to the drive tab of the distributor.


http://www.alldatadiy.com/alldata/AFI%7EV27358817%7EC33210%7ER0%7EOB0%7EP3R0H%7EN/0/70910848/78153753/78154197/78154199/34853741/100411974/34853743/58948514/34849806/105637708/84852786





Guide the distributor into the engine. Ensure that the spark plug (http://www.alldatadiy.com/alldata/AFI%7EV27358817%7EC33210%7ER0%7EOD%7EN/0/70910848/78153753/78154197/78154199/34853741/100411974/34853743/58828691) towers are perpendicular to the centerline of the engine.


http://www.alldatadiy.com/alldata/AFI%7EV27358817%7EC33210%7ER0%7EOB0%7EP3R0H%7EN/0/70910848/78153753/78154197/78154199/34853741/100411974/34853743/58948514/34849806/105637708/84852787





Once the distributor is fully seated, the rotor segment should be aligned with the pointer cast into the distributor base.




This pointer may have a 6 cast into it, indicating that the distributor is to be used on a 6 cylinder engine or a 8 cast into it, indicating that the distributor is to be used on a 8 cylinder engine.
If the rotor segment does not come within a few degrees of the pointer, the gear mesh between the distributor and the camshaft may be off a tooth or more.
If this is the case, repeat the procedure again in order to achieve proper alignment.


NOTE: Refer to Fastener Notice in Service Precautions.

Man you kick so much ass you should be arrested for assault!
Thank you!

[07Burb]

wow sunlit!!! awesome information for this issue :waytogo:

[Oh Bob Saget]

Do you happen to have any idea what the part numbers are for items i need? They might be listed there i just kind of scanned through but i didnt see them. I want to make sure i get the right stuff. ALSO i saw somthing that rang a bell with me while browsing. When i make a hard turn "link into a parking spot" my steering feels all funky. I am also hearing some noise "just a little near the steering wheel" Wondering if you had any ideas. Im at around 160k miles so im sure there are some nornal things that are going out.

[Oh Bob Saget]

So i checked the coolent level again today and it was low. Added a quart ran it in the drive way for a few seconds.. it started dripping coolent pretty quickly. I got under it to have a look and it looks like .. yes the lines are leaking.. a maybe a gasket in the same area behind a large metal piece. Maybe needs a new gasket too? Im not sure. I was wondering if anyone could point me twords the correct part numbers for the pieces i need to fix this coolent leak? I am going to try and tackle that first.

[Oh Bob Saget]

Here are some photos. Im not sure what all needs to be replaced but was hopeing maybe you guys might from the pics. Sorry they are crappy.

[Oh Bob Saget]

another photo

[Oh Bob Saget]

Got it lifted up a little and cleaned the hoses.. turned it back on and watched as it started dripping from the rear directly above the cross pipe. Im going to post some more photos including a direct side view of the vehicle from the bottom. Dead center of that photo is where its leaking.

[Oh Bob Saget]

Side view to show location. this is the rear drivers side door and tire. I have it jacked up a bit in the front so it would make sense that it would leak further back maybe?

[SunlitComet]

Hold the phone........

[Oh Bob Saget]

Thanks for that. After looking at these photos and reading the discriptions of the issues im having with the coolent leak. Do you thiink its hoses? It seems to be starting "higher back farther" unless im missing something.

[SunlitComet]

I need to clarify some info you have gone from engine cooling to to engine oil cooler back to engine coolant. This is getting confusing. The pictures you posted looks like antifreeze coolant or really bad oil. My interpretation changes between each picture Which look like from my point of view is leaking from the pump or hose in front and dripping it way back. You really need to get in there and clean it up better when it is cold. And maybe get a inspection mirror. to look under the water pump for leaking from what is called a weep hole which tells you if the water pump shaft seal is leaking. One picture looks to show that is what is happen but normally a water pump leak do not move that far back in the compartment unless it is not coming form the pump. For the moment I will treat it as an antifreeze leak.

Don't be pissed off at my asking this but are you adding engine oil or antifreeze and to where? Once again don't be mad at me for asking. I just feel like we are jumping from place to place on this and the details are changing along the way and I don't want to provide you with the wrong info either. But I am sure this will get figured out. It can be difficult to do over the internet. One other thing are you getting cross contamination of fluid like oil in water or vice-versa.

Clean the leaks up a little better like I mentioned If it is coming from the back high up the intake manifold gaskets may be junked a little lower could be head gasket or freeze plug. All of these have happened before to others.

[Oh Bob Saget]

Well i did add some summer air to my tires because it had spring air in it. Also my Joshnson rod needed lubed as well so i put some anti freeze in my gas tank.
LOL.... im not pissed hhe... trust me im not mechanic but i have seen people do stupid shit.

So here is the deal. What you are seeing all around is the antifreeze "coolent" I can see where the iformation is getting a little mashed up. Its a coolent leak. IE i pour it into my radiator inlet cap it up.. nothing happens. I start the truck it starts dripping antifreeze.
