    Fuel tank misreading

    I've been messing with my gauge cluster, on my 97 Tahoe four door, to try and get the gas tank gauge to read empty when empty. I ended up removing the plastic clear cover over the gauges and reinstalled the cluster. I drove around with extra gas in the truck till I ran out. Before filling the...

    Fuel Pump Lock Ring

    I found a replacement fuel tank for my 1997 GMC Yukon four door. It is out of a 1999 Chevy Tahoe. The lock ring out of the replacement tank is all rotted so I need a new one. The lock ring on the 97 Yukon is like one of those ninja star looking ones where the hooks are free on the outside of the...

    Fuel Tank Replacement

    Would anyone know the RPO code for a fuel tank in this 98 Yukon? I don't have the glove box sticker. It holds about 30 gallons or 110 litres

    Fuel Tank Replacement

    I've checked out seven junkyards in southern Ontario and found nothing. The hooks on the plastic tank that the ring slides onto are what rotted. I've had one part store try and sell me a metal tank but they wouldn't guarantee it was a saddle tank and wouldn't take it back if it was the wrong...

    Fuel Tank Replacement

    1998 GMC Yukon 4x4. My fuel pump ring thingy holders have rotten and the pump sticks up now. When I go to fill the tank the gas pours out of the top. It is an original plastic tank mounted on the side. I can't find another plastic tank and the parts places tell me I have to get a metal one. When...

    Rear blocks

    I just scored a mint shape 1997 GMC Yukon. I replaced both spring packs on the back due to multiple broken springs. I didn't like the way it looked jacked up in the back so I took out the two blocks. One block was two inch and the other only 1.5 inches in height. Is this normal? I think the two...

    AC accumulator

    I've tried getting that Acdelco and they told me it's discontinued. Wish we had a Rock Auto up here in Canada. I will try and get one off of ebay. Thanks for all the help.

    AC accumulator

    Last eighth digit of VIN are VJ746423. I went to an auto parts store and the item they ordered is just like the one I got from Spectra. Still the wrong part. The parts guy is telling me it's a cartridge and i need to open my canister and install it. My canister is an aluminum welded item. Not...

    AC accumulator

    I do not have rear AC in this Yukon. I have an orifice tube. Would I have the thermostatic expansion valve as well? The Acdelco part listed talks about a TEV.

    AC accumulator

    I'm trying to order the correct replacement for my new to me 1997 GMC Yukon four door, no rear AC. Amazon sent the wrong part and the Acdelco part 15-1739 amazon sells sais it won't fit. Can anyone tell me the correct part number to order? Thanks

    Natural Gas system in tahoe

    I'm looking at buying a 97 Tahoe with a dual fuel set up. I'm wondering if anyone else has this system or has used one? I've driven Taxis that ran on natural gas and propane and it was no different than gasoline. You had to fill up more often though. This truck has 327 000 km on it but the body...

    Replacing Dash Board

    Got it all done. I found a nice dash out of a 95 pick up. Stupid me didn't look at the motor though. It was out of a truck with a 4.3 tbi engine. The harness is different than my 5.7 vortec. I had to switch over the old harness onto the new dash. Not too big a deal as everything came out and...

    Replacing Dash Board

    Thanks for pointing that out in the pic. On the engine side I guess I have to trace all those wires from the white connector and unplug those?

    Replacing Dash Board

    I checked out that link and others. I practiced on a 99 suburban with a crap dash board today. I liked the idea of just disconnecting the fuse block at the fire wall and taking the entire dash harness out along with the dash. I got the fuse block unbolted but wasn't able to separate the two...

    Replacing Dash Board

    My 98 Two door Tahoe has a broken Dash. I mean it's literally broken into pieces. Dried out in the Florida sun and when I got it here in Canada it just started to break apart. Has anyone swapped out their Dash for a newer one? Just wondering how much crap I may be getting into. Thanks

    Ecm-1 fuse issues

    Have you disconnected the battery and let it reset everything? Sounds like the passlock system is shutting off your fuel pump. Can also try the passlock relearn. Google it.

    Burst Oil Hose

    Got the motor back. I basically got a full rebuild including new roller lifters this time. Only charged me 1500. I purchased the oil adapter and i'm removing the oil lines for good. Hope this makes this one last this time.

    Burst Oil Hose

    I'm removing the oil cooler lines from my pick up truck as well. For 50 bucks I can protect the motor from blowing up.

    Burst Oil Hose

    I will answer my own question I guess. Motor shop said I have blown my crank bearings and main bearing but crank is in good shape. Also three pistons have been scuffed. Oil pump is also gone. Heads have heat marks on intake and exhaust valves but appear to be in good shape. Gonna be close to...

    Burst Oil Hose

    My upper oil cooler hose burst on the highway. I noticed the oil gauge dropping to zero and pulled over right away and the motor stalled. The temp never went above 100 degrees. I changed out the hose and filled it up and it fired right up. However there is now a light knock in the bottom end...

    Sheet metal shield on side of 98 4wd/4dr gas tank.

    I can't remember where I got mine. It wasn't too expensive though.
