    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Haven't noticed any scraping, where would it happen? I think the rear is hitting the trimmed bumpstops on big bumps so I foresee some frame cutting in my future. Gotta say getting in and out is much easier now and loading my toolboxes in and out of the back is easier now too.

    Fuel Tank Pressure Off - SOLVED

    Doing autowork in sub-freezing temps sucks balls. There was no way a human arm was getting to that FTP sensor without dropping the tank some on this Tahoe, so I did the partial drop and got the sensor out. Dumb ass thing looked new, reads .5V off. Tested the new sensor, reads 1.5V, put that in...

    Fuel Tank Pressure Off - SOLVED

    Too right. I figure I'll try first just snaking my arm up there, when that fails I'll pull the driveshaft, and if that fails I'll lower the tank partially. This sounds like a 2-3 beer job.

    Fuel Tank Pressure Off - SOLVED

    This is the 2nd tahoe I have, and also the 'extra' car that rarely gets driven. Why I risked the cheapo fuel pump. On primary tahoe I have also dropped the tank twice already. Once for fuel pump (a 'real' one), and once for doing brakelines. So that's already 3 tahoe tank drops in recent memory.

    Fuel Tank Pressure Off - SOLVED

    Great video thanks. He gets the FTP sensor off without dropping the tank. Maybe Santa will bring me an auto lift for christmas. He verifies that the sensor should read 1.5 V ~0 mmHg at atmosphere. I almost wish my sensor was stuck at a voltage so I knew it was def bad, rather than it...

    Fuel Tank Pressure Off - SOLVED

    Got the P0446 code on a 2006 Tahoe so started the Evap Mystery Game. But since this truck is new to me recently and I haven't done any evap system work on it yet just decided to replace the 3 main parts that go wrong. Purge valve, Vent Valve, and the canister. Bench tested the solenoids and...

    2005 Tahoe Ls stalling

    Truck stalled while driving today, luckily I got it into a park lot with momentum before I had to stop. Won't restart, no engine light. Nothing visibly wrong, cranks, won't start. Making some weird sounds like it half starts then immediately dies. Can't figure out so I call AAA. Waiting around...

    My Ivory dealer was backlogged so I had to go with the ‘hammered’ faux finish.

    Exhaust manifold leak part 2. Unbolted the manifold again to try to see why its leaking from the gasket. Got a straight edge and checked to see if I had warpage. Found some corrosion that was giving me a gap. Doesn't look like much but it was enough to give me the leak. A little...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    So here I was patting myself on the back for getting all those exhaust manifold bolts out and putting in the new ones, and today I found that I am leaking from the manifold right at the gasket. All the new bolts went in smooth so I know I am not cross-threaded, and I all the bolts are torqued...

    Yeah I was joyed when they started to turn without breaking off. There's that moment when you start to torque it and its either going to turn or snap off. Super happy I got them out. I failed on the driver side though, left one bolt in the head and used the dorman clamp.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Tackled the exhaust manifold bolts on the passenger side today. First and last were broken. Took off all the spark plug wires. Fully unbolted the manifold and would have taken it all the way out but apparently the oil dipstick is laced through it. Thought about pulling out the dipstick but when...
