    not really, how often do you drive your truck? The evap system is only checked so often and in certain conditions, which often do not happen in winter around our way.

    5.3 engine

    So what TxTooTall is saying is yes an active fuel management 5.3 will drop right in if you delete active fuel management, which is what I would guess you were looking for in the first place.

    Seems to...?

    I am not going to say that this is normal, but it is common. If I am driving my tahoe like a grandpa, it sort of slams into second at like 2500. My silverado did that too and the trans made it all the way to 190000 with lots of towing and abuse before letting go.

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

    Get a 22 half filled with ice and then try to drive down the highway, you will be bouncing out of your seat and your wheel bearings will be shot within minutes. On the snow subject, does anyone plow with their tahoe? I have been looking at putting a plow on her because I literally have no...

    Black Bear or Hypertech Max Energy

    If you get a good custom tune you don't need to change on the fly. I am so happy with my tune I just run 89 all the time. Lew did a great job. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

    Black Bear or Hypertech Max Energy

    I have the diablo intune with a custom tune from Lew, I couldn't be happier. The performance improved drastically, and his customer service is second to none. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

    Coolant Leak

    Overflow bottle? That would be my first guess. Did you recently add coolant before this started? Maybe it is overfilled and coming out the vent tube. Sent from my RM-917_nam_usa_100 using Tapatalk

    Intakes - Sceptre vs K&N

    Not much, typically the stock airbox is sufficient until you start with more modifications. You will notice an increase in throttle response but that will be about it. I have the volant on mine and it makes a cool sound but if I wouldn't have picked it up for $75 used it would not have been...

    Time for a 0.030 over bore!!

    You might be able to get an email tune like a blackbear auto cal that makes it run pig rich so you don't burn one of those shiny new pistons and email logs back and forth until it is running right. I know this is not the most efficient way of doing things but it may work for you. From what I...

    100,000 Mile Transmission Flush and Service Questions

    Here is that post. I had a pressurized flush done on my 03 Pontiac grand Prix. It was a gt model with 34000 miles on it, it shattered everything except for 1st gear and I had to replace the trans by 36000. I will say that I believe in changing the fluid, just don't let a shop blow it in...

    100,000 Mile Transmission Flush and Service Questions

    The link posted earlier, I would not do a pressure flush on a gm trans unless I wanted to kill it. If you keep up on regular maintenance you will never need to do more than that. I would actually do what Wake suggested after flushing it good with the method in the link. Doing 5 quarts every...

    How to test for pending alternator failure

    Any idiot can run that machine it will be 1 connector 2 alligator clips, slide it on a rod and wrap a belt around it. It is so simple, just keep an eye on the person doing it and watch the screen, if it shows all green then it is good. I used to work at autozone as a second job when I first...

    100,000 Mile Transmission Flush and Service Questions

    +1 my Pontiac had a similarly designed fwd trans and I had it flushed by a shop at 34000 miles. By 36000 I only had 1st gear left. That's why I put in my disclaimer in before my previous post. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

    Parking break stuck!

    I am going to take a shot in the dark here and say the cable is probably chewed up and is the reason why the pedal is stuck to the floor, and why it doesn't work either. If you replace the cable you might be good to go, depending on the quality of the parking brake shoes and components. Or...

    100,000 Mile Transmission Flush and Service Questions

    Do not let them do a pressurized flush on your truck. Its easy, drop the pan and change the filter. After that don't do anything until you remove one of the oil cooler lines. Put about as much new fluid in the dipstick tube as what came out of the pan. Put the transmission line in a pan and...

    2001 suburban LT misfire with no code

    I had to do that on mine, I had one he'll of a misfire and no code. When I pulled wires I couldn't tell the difference by sound so I watched my fuel trims on the scanner and pulled the wires. I eventually found the no. 7 plug was cracked thanks to amazon's shipping department. Sent from my...

    Recommendations for plugs and wires

    Both coils are used in all applications. One the spark plug wire connects on the bottom gg and the other one the wire has to travel over some of the coil hh. The hh wires are slightly longer. The coils are made by two different companies, Delco and some other brand so it was hit or miss on...

    Do you tow in the mountains? I have pulled a 5000lb bobcat on a 3000lb trailer and the acceleration is the last thing you have to worry about. I like the 3.73 gearing on stock tires, it seems to work well. If you are going to tow a lot upgrade your brakes first, do the hydroboost swap and...

    Recommendations for plugs and wires

    delco 41-110's like previously stated, and delco wires. the wires will be either 9748gg or hh depending on the coil you have. Round coils are gg and square ones are hh. As for brakes and rotors I run autozone's severe duty brakes and have had good experiences. Rotors, just don't buy the cheap...
