    2007 Yukon Denali Parts Clean Out

    Sorry guys I forget to setup notifications on this thread, and I thought I had my location in my profile, I guess not. Located in Grove City, OH, which is just south of Columbus, OH. I'm going to assume that neither of you are going to want to drive that far for these parts. I'll get you...

    L92 oil pump removal with engine in truck

    I pulled the oil pump on my L92 without dropping the pan, but it was a total PITA. The challenge is removing the bolt from the pickup tube. Only 1 of my 4 wrenches would fit on the bolt to break it loose. Then it took at least 30 minutes to very slowly work that bolt out an 1/8th a turn at a...

    Intake Question 2007 GMC Denali 6.2L

    The lower fitting is basically just a rubber hose. Mine cracked just a couple of weeks ago, and I sourced some generic rubber PCV fitting to replace it for $8. The upper connection is part of the intake manifold and a much bigger deal. If the dealer doesn't own up to the damage. The intake...

    Changed the look of my door handles

    Well done. That is super clean looking. Also what size of wheels are you running. I love the overall look.

    Nadthomas 2007 Yukon Denali 200k Mile Re-build

    The dealership programmed the TCM yesterday, and all appears to be well. At least from what I could tell on the 3 mile drive home. There was a check engine light on when I dropped it off yesterday, but that could have been from any number of things at the time. I honestly don't recall if it...

    Nadthomas 2007 Yukon Denali 200k Mile Re-build

    I got it all back together this weekend, and took it for a trip around the block. Everything seems good, except that it won't go past 2k RPM, but I'm pretty sure that is expected since the TCM still needs to be programmed. Dealership just down the road from my house said 1 hour @ $110 to...

    Nadthomas 2007 Yukon Denali 200k Mile Re-build

    Yeah. I saw you previously mentioned you got a CEL because the pressure is too high. I did swap to the lower pressure spring that came with it (I believe it was yellow) before installing it. The instructions said it should be about 8-10psi lower. Hopefully that will do the trick. I have not...

    Nadthomas 2007 Yukon Denali 200k Mile Re-build

    UPDATE!!! All is not lost, and I'm finally almost done with this part of the rebuild. My friends shop had it for a little over a month, kind of working on it on the side to help keep costs down. They went over a good portion of the wiring harness, and eventually came to the conclusion the TCM...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    01FormulaTA nailed. I replaced the valley cover orings and now I have lots of oil pressure. I'm glad I swapped to the lower pressure spring on the Melling 10355 oil pump. I'm seeing about 65-70psi at idle now. 01FormulaTA if you ever find yourself in the Columbus area I'll buy you a beer or...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    Well .....back on topic. I got the intake manifold pulled and the valley cover off this evening. I totally did not replace the o-rings in the valley cover, and they are pretty well compressed. I was hoping to see more signs of oil spay in the valley, or on the bottom of the cover. There was...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    THANKS!!!! I really hopeful that this is the source of my problem(it makes a lot of sense), and kind of exactly the small oversight I was hoping someone would school me on. At the very least I can spend Christmas day thinking I have a cheap and easy solution. :thumbsup:

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    The pan originally had an oil pressure relief valve so I replaced it (again just to avoid potential future issues), but I was just reading tonight as well that it can simply be blocked off. If I end up dropping the pan, I will simply plug it. I am really suspect of the valley cover o-rings...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    Oil filter was an Acdelco, but was replaced with a Mobile1 filter between new and new-new oil pump. The Oil pan pressure release valve was replaced when I had the engine out in the summer. So I guess another suspect for a faulty part.

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    I replaced the pick up tube because it was cheap and easy to replace with the engine out. I also did it to help ensure I had a 100% clean pick up screen, and to make sure I had the right o-ring. Hmmmm I don't recall o-rings on the valley cover, and I didn't snap any pics of it when I had it...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    I have heard of that as well, but I don't think that is a thing with these and most modern motors. Someone correct me if i'm wrong. Although, i may try to pull the oil pan, so I'll inspect it if I do. I have heard that its possible to drop the AWD system a couple of inches to pull the pan.

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    2007 L92 with no AFM. Notched tubes use a black or blue o-ring. Staight or tapered tubes use a green or red o-ring. Again this was a new pick up tube with the o-ring pre-installed. My tube is the tapered version. I'm 100% confident its not an o-ring issue. Before replacing the new oil...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    Didn't touch the cam, except for replacing the VVT oil control valve bolt. I originally bought the pick up tube and oil pump as a set from Melling. The o-rings came pre-installed, but I even measued the pick up tubes end and verified with the instructions that the correct o-ring was used...

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    Its a 2007. Upgraded to a metal Sak city barbell while I had the cover off.

    Low/No Oil Pressure After new Oil Pump Install

    I'm really hoping that someone schools me on something that I have overlooked. Over the summer I pulled the motor out of my Denali to give it a little refresh since I'm approaching 200k miles. I replaced a bunch of seals like valve covers, timing cover, rear covers, rear main, front seal...

    Motor refresh complete, now no crank, no start

    Me too. I'm really hoping its just the sensor. Pretty much everything else is going to be a total PITA.

    Motor refresh complete, now no crank, no start

    Its alive! The tech isolated everything, and finally determine that it was the TCM that was causing the problem. I guess kind of obvious, but I'm glad they took the time to determine it was specifically the TCM as the TCM was not cheap. Bad news, they noticed low oil pressure after it started...
