    Looking at buying this 2004

    Yeah, 99-02 have air core motors, (that need to be calibrated with equipment when fixed). The stepper motors are 03-07, you can find those everywhere, and you can reset those yourself.

    Hello everyone!!!! 2012 Tahoe manual transmission swap?

    I've spoken with someone that has a GMT900 pickup that they said they swapped. Didn't get into too much detail, but said they used all GM800 parts to do it. They did make a Mexican GMT900 pickup, but they only put the manual behind the v6. I even found a GMT900 3500, and it had a manual...

    Looking at buying this 2004

    Those gauges looked perfect to me. The 80psi when flooring it is what I get. That idle looked at about 700 to me, that's fine. The temp was right where it should be. I would have wanted to see a cold start, and in a perfect world a video of underneath. If that's from the top half of the...

    03 z71 myster parasitic draw

    Yeah this. Anything aftermarket is first suspect. Especially stereo equipment. Amps have a Large power wire, and a very small remote wire. That remote wire acts as a switch to turn off and on, when they receive power. That switch wire is connected to the remote wire on the head unit so...

    Catch Can for 2006 Tahoe 5.3

    So the design is to burn off that oil, not because it is supposed to, but because it needs to relieve the crankcase pressure. Part of the oil is becoming aerated, and going back into the manifold which makes that dirty, and then into the combustion chamber, (and I wouldn't know if then into...

    Help with alternator wiring harness

    Someone may answer, but this website is for a different model. In 2000, there were OBS SUVs and NBS SUVs. This website is for the later NBS. You have the 2000 Classic, OBS body style if you have a 5.7L motor. I would suggest finding a website for OBS vehicles.

    2002 Tahoe e-fans and volt gauge

    The big 3 is 3 bigger cables off the battery. It's going to make your voltage drop worse, until you up your power supplied. The Efans are causing the voltage drop. The 05-07 efans are IIRC 5 and 7 blade fans. Those are 350w motors. So When those kick on they are causing a (350w/ 14.4v =)...

    How do I identify what alternator I have in a '04 Yukon Denali

    2005 started charging based on need, as opposed to 2004 and older which had a constant charge. You wouldn't lose anything if your alt and battery combined could handle the draw. The alt is going to feed the power needed on a 05+, but beyond that your battery is a storage bank, that can still...

    How do I identify what alternator I have in a '04 Yukon Denali

    No, none of that. You're just guessing. That would require the tiniest battery and undersized alternator with additional loads that are too much for the stock electrical. Electrical/THE LOADS, are a pull (what they need, not a push from the battery). OP The factory cable from alt to batt + is...

    Bad alternator?

    That video doesn't apply to you. The old style alternators used internal voltage regulators. The alt would constantly run, and would aim for a desired voltage (14.4v), then shunt the overage to not overcharge. Starting in 05, the alts had external voltage regulators, and are controlled by...

    Throttle Body Upgrade ?

    Your intake is fine, that's a waste of money. Unless you get a new intake manifold, you're still going to have the same size opening behind the throttle body whether you use the one you have now, or a much larger one. An intake manifold is a few steps beyond what you want to do to make it...

    Alternator

    If yours is going bad, the most common failure point on an alternator is the Voltage Regulator. If you pull the alt, it's two screws, swap it over, and reinstall the alt. Cost about $40-$50 for the part. Is yours not charging? If you know the old slot cars with the needle in the track...

    Oil life question

    So I have an 02, and for my vehicle the OLM is based off only two things: Oil temp and RPMs. Whether or not your newer model includes all that extra, I don't know. (We didn't even get all of that before 03). It's winter time, so I would expect that Oil life to be reduced. IMO, that OLM is...
