What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Rocket Man]

My Esky did not have them from factory I retrofitted and installed 2 filters.

My guess is that you get more filtration with better overall flow with more filter area. They use 2 seperate filters as thats the only way you could slip them into that slot i'd imagine.

I ordered the following items

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0010DW5ZO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

when I did my retrofit.

Mine Are 2 years old. Probably due for a change.

Edit: Thinking about it the wife has complained about a musty smell lately and air flow isnt great. Ordered some new ones.

Aha. That’s an AC Delco cover for the retrofit so I see you got the regular 2 filter set. The Dorman kit has one that bends at some places as it goes up so it’s one piece. I’m sure they can use the 2 part filters too.

I've sorted out that this is correct. My single filter is twice as big as yours. So there.

Would I use the same kit for my ‘03 Yukon? I’m guessing so.

Don't think so. Found a 5.3 on my buddy's engine stand. Checked that alt out.

Yeah--I'm getting real tired of this bit%$

What are you getting at? Looks different than yours?

I was just checking/looking at the orientation of everything. Unfortunately it was among a bunch of engines/transmissions and right against a truck, so I really couldn't get a good sideways view. Looking at those pics the alt looks alot straighter then mine does.

You should at least pull yours off, take a look at the mounting to see if anything looks wrong, loose, worn, bent etc. It only takes a few minutes. It might turn up something.

Years ago on my 30th Anniversary Trans Am, I put an underdrive pulley on and couldn't figure out why I kept throwing serpentine belts. I must have gone through three before I took a good look at it. Crank bolt apparently didn't go in all the way so the pulley wasn't snug. Bought yet another bolt and got her square. Fortunately, I didn't mangle the threads in the crank....but look what came out:

Thanks!

just scored an escalade shift for the hoe, but notived the chrome was peeling. is there a way to remove the cap to paint it, it does move slighty.

Yep. That works fine for any years without the filters from the factory. Just have to cut the opening. I used a razor knife I think.

 

[TheAutumnWind]

Thanks!

Bot sure what's better about that kit other than it costs more.

No change. Nothing that I can't attribute to random variance anyway. Misfire counts, long term fuel trims, and idle feel remain unchanged. So my takeaways are: either my injectors are fine, or they aren't and the tank added fuel injector cleaner is ineffective. Couldn't say without pulling injectors and measuring flow / pattern and I'm not going to do that

Try a can of Royal Purple Max Clean. One can treat 20 gallons so you’ll need more than one can. You can get at Walmart for less than $14 a can. Stuff works great in yard equipment too
