    4l60e PWM delete

    I had the transmission rebuilt on a 1998 Chevrolet K1500 (broken sun shell) and they deleted the PWM and installed a reman torque converter (1611-1654 stall). I don’t know what they used for the delete. At TCC lockup, how are these PWM deletes supposed to feel compared to the stock...

    Engine knock

    This is on a 1998 K1500, 350, 230k miles. Earlier this year (7,000 miles ago) the #5 hydrolocked due to a cracked head. The other head was also cracked and I replaced both. It’s my son’s truck so I rarely drive it, but I noticed a knocking sound a week ago. Changed the oil (5W30 Mobil 1)...

    Fuel trims, dead converter?

    Truck is a 1998 K1500 (350) with 225k and it’s had a rough life. It’s my teenage son’s truck, so I’m of a “keep it going long enough until he’s out of high school” mindset versus my Tahoe. The left head cracked and locked up #5, so I replaced that with a reman head. The right head was also...

    Sport package grille

    Anyone have a source for one of these? GM number 15981092 - factory argent colored grille for the sport package. My son hit a deer in my Tahoe and cracked the grille up. Really don’t want to fool with an aftermarket one.

    Cylinder head recommendation

    My son’s truck (98 K1500) has a cracked head. I haven’t pulled the second one, but assume it’s not far behind so I plan on doing both. Any recommendations for a replacement? I don’t want to break the bank on a teenager’s truck (say $1,000 per head) but am leery of the reman heads that sell...

    Do these work? Bluetooth radio adapter

    Anyone tried using these with a stock radio? For $15, it says you can connect a Bluetooth to an unused radio station. With nine, count them, NINE marvelous colors, it promises to make my trips more convenient and exciting. Can’t lose, right? Just wonder how well they work in real life.

    Missing door panel vent?

    I’m tracking a water leak on my 98 two-door. Water splashes onto this plastic vent thing and then comes out the hole for the door panel clip. From there it drips to the inside weatherstripping, overflows and floods the carpet. Here’s what mine looks like. The plastic vapor barrier is...

    Two vs three bolt tensioner

    I ordered a new main belt tensioner for my 08 Yukon (5.3) without looking at the original part first. The new one (Delco #38158) has three mounting points where the factory original has two. The three point version is listed to fit on this model. My water pump has the thread tap for the...

    Rear hatch weatherstripping

    I just bought a 98 two door with the tailgate and it's leaking along the top of the lift glass. The weatherstripping looks great but the top piece attached to the truck had the flap pushed inside the lift glass. I pulled it out so the lip now rests on top of the glass. Is this how it is...
