Window unit air conditioner seal from Lowe's or Home Depot. There are different sizes, but I think I used the 2 1/4" one. I can tell you- it works. When idling, my IATs show a max of 3° over ambient. When driving, I might be 1° over.
moved the tru-cool 40k down to the bottom grill yesterday, went by the dealer to pick up a new outside ambient temp sensor because mine was brittle and the clip broke off,
the dealer lot was barren, no new suv's they were a few 1500 pickups and a couple 2500 trucks, no wonder there all begging to buy it back lol
fixed my passenger side power-fold mirror a coupe years ago with a ching-chong plastic gear that finally died so went poking around online and now find a abundance of brass gears from china I guess they finally decided to copycat gruven so doing the mirror again today.
Happy Independence Day!

Either copycat'n Gruven or just decided to make them in stronger material.
Why not just buy the Gruven parts? The ching-Chong brass gears will still probably be cheap, thin, and strip eventually and you will be doing the job again... Lol
I think professional photographers have a lens for that...I look good in blur.

Yes, it's called a "lens cap".

Oil pressure back up. Screen was clogged and replaced the screen and sensor while I was back there. Prolly going to keep the other sensor as a backup. Woot woot. Used that fancy lisle socket too!
I will prolly put a real ethanol sensor in this truck as well too since I already paid for the credits in hptuners. I think it’s way off. Finally just got to 50% on last fill and it really should be at least 70 since we are in summer!

08z71bgm.............those stock ethanol sensors suck. Big difference with a good one.

Looking up parts to order to replace the front struts. They look original and in pretty good shape, but I noticed the lower mounting bushing is starting to crack/break/split and figured with the mileage new struts are due.
Also want to replace the upstream O2 sensors. Noticing the Denali uses a different part # than a non-Denali, odd!
Edit: Looking into it more, guess the O2 that's listed for Denali is the OE GM part, while the other one listed is ACDelco Gold Professional and $10 more, lol

How many tanks of E85 have you pumped aboard since you started? Did you start with a near empty tank or was there 3-5 gallons still aboard?

Yeah huh? Which one would you suggest? Dsx tuning uses the gm one on all their kits.

There are two Sunoco stations near me that don't always deliver from the pump what's advertised. More times than I can count they dispensed 87 instead of E30 or E15 or E85. The Racetrac's are more expensive but at least you get what it says on the pump! Bought a tester to take a sample from my fuel rail so see if it jives with the virtual sensor and they are usually very close if not spot on.
On the other hand, it can take a while to get to full strength if there's any significant amount of gasoline left aboard. Here's my log show such:
Just Fishing
Can't fix stupid
well after d-icking around with this mirror for a bit I think the torque motor is bad, the previous plastic gear I had replaced was fine, the mirror will sometimes fold in and that's it, won't fold back out and the motor just makes a buzz noise or just doesn't work with any load on it. I can spin the gear by hand with a tool and moves fine either way.
