Seemed to behave better on the way home. Maybe I can do some tests with my Tech2. Gonna look for a date code and maybe have it load tested. If it fails or is questionable I will replace it.
Poking around with the tech2 but didn't come across any charging system stuff. It seems to be running just above 14v now so I will keep an eye on it.

I also note my LTFT was at -10 and -8 but I filled from 1/4 tank with 91 non-ethanol on sunday. Could that cause the trims to go negative like that? I don’t think it’s anything to worry about.

usually (not always) when the battery gets weak you start seeing the voltmeter move around more, with a fresh healthy battery it should stick closer to 14. just my experience with both the nbs and nnbs. I think @kbuskill or somebody just put a new battery? you see any difference in the meter movement

I recently replaced my Optima Red Top with another Red Top due to it starting slowly and it only had 208 CA out of the 1000 CA it was supposed to have.

My volt meter bounces around, just as it was designed to do, no big deal.

The cold weather actually causes the alternator to put out more voltage. A cold battery will take more power than a hot battery.

Probably, again, due to the cold weather.

The negative fuel trims indicate that you are running a little rich, which is expected with cold air. Colder air is more dense and therefore has more oxygen content than hot air so the extra oxygen requires more fuel to compensate for it.

Also the non-ethanol fuel requires less fuel to be injected than ethanol fuel so your computer is leaning out the mixture.

I agree and what I was thinking. It was cold this morning (about 16F) and the high was only 26 which is a drop from the mid 40s three days ago. That plus the switch from 50% ethanol to probably less than 10% is probably causing it to trim.

Got a roughed in tune done on the 6.2 swap.

First test, not too bad.

Ive done dozens of LS cam swaps, I've seen copper on 75% of them. I've always just run em and never had issues. Run it!


Been reading that they might come like that from the factory.
Something about GM line honing the bearings after installing or something silly...

I've been parked outside for a couple weeks now and when I opened the rear to get some stuff out, I had a wet spot on the right rear corner of the floor liner. I could see a faint outline in the headliner directly above it. I didn't see any evidence that it was leaking through the wire boot, so I'm assuming it's a leaky roof rack screw. I guess it's time to weld 'em shut and repaint the roof.

...Or rearrange the shop so I can park in there again.

We found another one, at the back of the driver's rear wheel well, the sealant didn't cover a little hole, and in that area was dried mud and water. We sealed it with RTV, what else! LOL

Drove daughter to day care. Glad my wife didn’t take the hoe to work cause of the snow. While driving I decided to use 4wd. Then it wouldn’t come out and said service 4wd system... Turned off at daycare, come back out after a few minutes fire up and switched to 2wd and is now working. I hoping the motor actuator was just stuck from not being used since maybe April when I pulled someone out. Anything you guys suggest I look into incase this situation arrives again? I’ll be researching YouTube videos later.
