    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    We have a winner! The shop called the day after it was scheduled to be in, the braided body ground from the engine to the firewall had a bad connection. It toned out on my meter, but they just removed, cleaned and re-installed on the firewall (something I had previously done) and it took care...

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    I made it home Thursday night for my twins 8th birthday. Friday morning I put the (disconnected) battery on the charger. Friday nite/ Saturday was taken up with snow blowing and family/ birthday stuff. Saturday occurred to me that the truck seems to fire up with a VERY full battery and after...

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    This is what I have found chasing wires: All grounds tone out just fine The battery has good (13.5) voltage Good feed to the alternator, front axle, starter, and under hood fuse block The fuses on the top of the battery all check good The blue connector on top of the battery all has good...

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    Electrical Issues from the start: I unhooked the battery for the duration of the engine replacement As I finished the engine (long block) install I hooked up the battery to use my Diablo to reprogram the ECU to disable the DOD I was unsuccessful several time to get the Diablo to communicate...

    Here is where this stands. The motor when running is great, no CEL. This electrical issue is getting worse. If I would get "more attention" in the electrical forum will run through everything there. If not, should I start a new thread in this forum?

    2017 Yukon Denali Dies after Lifter Replacement

    Well I am watching this, as I just did a DOD delete and now fighting an electrical short (I think). Are you sure you didn't wipe out a cylinder? Ours bent/broke a pushrod when picking up the kids from school and i told her to limp it home 10 miles. It ended up being out .004" on #4 cylinder...

    Delco/GM, Dayco, Continental, Gates, any of the name brand ones will be good.

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    Success was short lived. I installed the hood, inner fenders and made a quick trip to the store about 3 miles away. went over the railroad tracks and the dash and infotainment screen went dark and came back on. I got home, and tried to seat the fuse box better, and in turn, locked our only fob...

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    Update to where this stands. The vehicle essentially acted like it was DOA as far as power, the only "sign of life" was a glowing, barely on CEL. All my grounds and +12v wires showed good voltage in the engine bay. I had good voltage at the fuse block on the driver inner fender. On a whim I...

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    This thing is just getting worse. After getting home from work and hooking up the battery it is acting like there is even less power in the truck, no dash light, dim dome lights, dim infotainment screen. Each time I unhook the battery and hook it back up, it gets worse. To the point now all i...

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    Well the saga continues. I have been leaving a battery charger (2 amp) on (with battery unhooked). This morning I was not sleeping, so at 3:00 am I went out to give the Diablosport another go. It tells me the voltage is low. Sure enough the dash gage shows 10.5(ish) volts. The battery...

    No Communication with TCM

    How did you fix the "It keeps saying shift to park even though it's in park the p r n d is there but none is highlighted" I have the same message, but I have not tried to start our Yukon after an engine swap. I have a lot of messages popping up....

    No returns on the Diablo. Not surprised. Guess I will try their help line today. Will one of the Amazon $50 AFM disablers work for the meantime? I need to get this truck on the road.

    2017 6.2 Collapsed Lifter Causing Blue Smoke?

    Well despite life's best efforts to slow me down this weekend I got the engine in and ready to go. Including a quick fix on the RH motor mount heat shield that would have been MUCH easier to do before I installed into the chassis. Yesterday moring i wrapped up the last of everything, and then...
