    Leaking fuel line 2004 Yukon!

    Hi folks it's been a while since the car's been running Ok but a new prob has come up and need some advice. first it's a very rusty NJ 2004 Yukon that I've owned since new. I've done a lot of the work over the years, including replacing the fuel pump and main fuel lines, and also brake lines...

    Transmission slipping!

    this is great insight thank you. I'm actually pretty good -- I've rebuilt/swapped motors before so it's a possibility -- I'll do a little homework based on your comments and check my appetite for the job -- but again great perspective.

    Transmission slipping!

    thank you. I've not changed the filter and fluid should I try that first -- does that ever help or is it too far gone at this point?

    Transmission slipping!

    So I've got a 2004 Yukon that I've owned since new, it has 150K on it and it's really served me well. a workhorse that I depend on! now the trans is slipping and over revving, it almost feels like there's no third gear. sometimes it's OK and drives fine then it will slip and rev to 5k then back...

    Replacing steel rear brake lines!

    Hi guys -- back for part two of this project! A while back I came here for some advice on replacing the front line which had rusted out and let go (thanks again all). like the proverbial "other shoe" to drop, the rear finally went. good news is I already have the part as part of the GM kit I...

    Bleeding Brakes after replacing steel lines

    gentlemen thank you very much -- yes the MC was OK and not replaced! but of course the lines were replaced below it. I'll follow the steps above. glad to hear it is something I can do.

    Bleeding Brakes after replacing steel lines

    I'm original owner on a 2004 GMC Yukon w/4WD, and I'm one of those poor souls whose steel brake lines rotted out and had to be replaced. I got the "kit" from GMC, it fit fine, did the job myself. Replaced everything up front from the Master Cylinder on down to the pads including new calipers...

    Finished the job and now it won't start!!

    gentlemen - you are the best. I re-connected the two grounds and it fired right up. and good news is the new PS pump works great too with no leaks. I'm sure I saved a few hundred bucks there. again thanks this was terrific. My last resort was gonna be having it towed to a dealer and that woulda...

    Finished the job and now it won't start!!

    Here are a couple more close-ups of the loose wire. as you can see there was a bare tip exposed -- you can see it in the original two photo's esp the LH one. the one new close-up is just as found with just a bit of the wire exposed (it actually almost looks worn as if it was rubbing against a...

    Finished the job and now it won't start!!

    Would this be it?! see the loose end of the wire hanging down? it joins the harness above where the black wrap is, next to the steel line coming out of the PS pump. but I can't tell if it goes up, or down. the wire itself is only about 6-8" long, so you would think it would be easy enough to...

    Finished the job and now it won't start!!

    I checked all the fuzes related to the ignition and fuel in all the boxes and all seem fine. I had never heard of the crank position sensor! but thats why I'm here of course. after seeing your suggestion, i looked it up to see location and read that the tach will not register while cranking if...
