Yes... Do NOT over tighten them. They are stupid sensitive!

 

[yukondenali]

Thanks I'll keep that in mind.

 

[yukondenali]

the front sensor for some reason looked good.

Damn nasty stuff....do they fail due to that gunk build up?

 

[yukondenali]

yea i believe so.

 

[THE YETI]

Please tell me you had those intake ports covered during install.

 

[yukondenali]

I shop vacced all the heavy stuff then cleaned it up before I installed anything

Looks like fun! you had a bit of junk up there. How did those helicopters get on top of your motor??

 

[yukondenali]

I don't know but when I bought the truck it was sitting for atleast few years from the way it looked.

 

[07Burb]

That could explain it chose a nice cool day to work in the driveway

 

[yukondenali]

Yea it was my first time doing that job so I didn't really know to much about it. Thanks I'll keep that in mind for any future trucks I get.
