2008 Yukon Denali, 135k miles, part 2!!

[tgui]

So drinkin and thinkin and realized my 170k mile starter was old and subjected to an oil leak.

Why not put in a new one?

You know what makes for an easy starter removal? No oil pan, dipstick tube, brace etc..

Got the rusty crap out that started this all. Wow.

I understand. I live in the DC area, did undergrad in CO, and grew up in AK.

Rust is life.

BUT, please tell how you deleted all that? Like you have no power steering?

Ahh ok. I thought I was looking at a badass with a Yukon without power steerings.

Mine has decided to PS delete itself (belt fly off) at triple digits before, it's not fun
