    I understand, the cenex by me has 93 for that price... I didn't intend for posters to read it as a sams fuel, just that the cheapest 93 top tier is 2.67...,:cool:

    Won’t start when colder than 25 degrees

    Now the difference in price is 34 cents per gallon...(87 to 91) .34 x 27 gallons= 9.18 difference every tank My mpg gos from 13.5 to 14.5/8 using 87 to 91... avg 1 mpg... so 27 extra miles= roughly 2 gallons of gas= $4.66... 9.18 - 4.66= roughly 4.50 more per tank after adding in extra miles...

    Throttle body acting up

    I had a whole new pigtail that connects to the throttle body rewired, and sanded my big 3 grounds, and my reduced engine power went away all together... Would do it at low throttle, sometimes before the engine even started , it would right into it... have to wait and restart it and it would be...

    BELT TENSIONER, IDLER, ? CHATTER

    Yes, that's why they put 2 belts in my opinion, so if the a.c. went put somehow you could cut the belt and still have a serp belt to drive on... If the defroster is on, the ac kicks on at any temp, its trying to blow dry air... I had that chatter and it was a bad compressor that wouldn't the...

    Front diff is around 2 quarts to hit the fill plug line Rear diff is around 2.7 quarts to plug line T case is around 1.6 quarts to plug line For rear diff, take off the 'filler' plug, and put the head of an Allen key in there, or your pinky finger if it's small enough... when you push down...

    Advice on Yukon XL Denali

    Service history is very important on denalis... If they did not take care of them, the diffs, t- case, even the trans, could need more than just some new fluid... If you buy it, plan on doing a $300 tune up.. fuel filter, air filter, radiator flush, engine flush, plugs, wires, diff fluid...

    Best $150 mods

    I feel it adds a little more throttle response from a stop, it's responsive and snappier when towing, and it adds a audible growl letting you know it's there.. Layman's, it's more awake... not 'tuned' awake, but it's a start...lolz
