What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[iamdub]

Totally forgot about that one. ‍
Thanks... Sometimes I get a little too eager and don't do research with things I'm not fully versed on still.
Another good reason I only get a zip tied it in place. Hahaha

It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it!

But, yeah, that air is already filtered as it's the same air going into the engine through the TB. It goes from the filtered air duct, into that port on the passenger side rocker cover then into the crankcase. The vacuum of the intake manifold sucks the air (that contains oil droplets) from the crankcase via the port on the driver side rocker cover.

Got a package

every since I swapped out my interior lights with leds, they only turn on when I use the dimmer knob. like if you push any of the map lights, they are super dim

For some reason some BCMs do that if they don’t sense enough resistance. I was surprised mine worked. My map lights in my 03 would not work with LEDs

My 03 does this too.

Finally put in a tank of e85 after weeks of running regular or premium, and my goodness what a difference. It really hates regular, pulls a lot of timing.
Such a dog off of the line until maybe 20 or 30 miles an hour, and then anything over 5,500 RPM it does the same thing you could feel it lay over.
91 however, it's pretty good nearly all the time, you could tell a slight difference to e85.
It's definitely happiest on corn though. That added cooling I think makes a big difference. Because it doesn't really matter how hot the ambient air is, it feels like it pulls pretty good all the time.

Just wait until it gets to full strength and the engine and transmission adapt to it! Fun stuff!

These are too much. Going back in favor of some less intense. Additionally I don’t like how they flash when cranking the engine.

I thought about getting some in red. Figured the color would make it not so bright

I contemplated that but decided against it. Gonna try the Sylvania ones from the local store. They are a warmer color. But, twice as expensive.

I did blue LEDs

I did mine in red.



So after running all week without my Range device to get ready for my state emissions & inspection today there were no lifter implosions and she passed everything and it cost me $52.50.

I did the same in theothertwin, but kept it in manual shift as well as out of 6th gear. AFM never engaged.

also cost $7 because I’m not in a high pollution county.

 

[George B]

The Sylvania 578 LEDs work well and are friendlier to the eyes.

Filled up with 89 octane 0% ethanol for the second time. Didn’t do much better on mileage on that. 10.5 vs 9.3 mpg. Cost $.35/mi vs $.30/mi on E85 so E85 is a better bargain right now. I was at 18% ethanol for that tank so we will see what I have now and how it does mileage wise.

Haven’t been on here much lately. Here’s a crappy phone pic I like. Also, what tires would you recommend? I may go back to the factory 20s. I’ve had Nitto 420s for years, but I guess they don’t make those anymore. I’ve exceeded the H speed rating a few times (Mexico) so I’d like something with a V rating (have come close to exceeding that, but that was rather stupid of me). I’m looking at these two at the moment

I like the goodyears but they really don't make anything above a H in that size, so if I had to pick it would probably be the Toyo

I’ve been a huge fan of Nitto, but I do kinda wanna try Toyo. The warranty difference doesn’t really matter to me either. I only drive ~3000 miles per year, and that’ll come down if I find a new daily soon

looking at the tread again, my best guess is the nitto are going to have better wet traction

 

[MajorJakkov]

@lowh07 I had the nitto 421Q in 285-45r22. I thought they were solid tires, I got 55,000 miles out of mine. My only complaints would be that I felt they were loud, especially after 20,00 miles and the center of the tread wore out faster than the edges even though I kept the pressure at 33 all the time. Can't really complain too much since I did get a ton of miles out of them. Mostly highway driving.

 

[Doubeleive]

I have ran these budget performance tires a couple times, had no issue, reviews are 50/50
but there cheap..... I actually ran 305's no rubbing other than minor rub in reverse at full lock, or maybe if you hit a really decent bump in the road

If we're mentioning cheap tires, I bought some lionharts off amazon for my s10. They are just a 245/45/17 and I drive 100 miles a day to work. Again, this is for the s10 but those things are great for the money. They balanced great, a couple of them have zero weights (crazy but true), I have no complaints. Hell, I just spent over $1,200 replacing the Bridgestones on the Yukon and the cheap tires ride better than those lol. I'm a stickler for tire brands on anything but my s10 though.

I have used the lionhearts, my experience was they have poor grip, not scary no grip but in the rain on a corner my @ss was waggling more than a few times, I do tend to drive like a mad man so I suppose that has to be a weighing factor compared to a normal driver.

That’s the only time I’ve heard about the Lionhearts. I ended up with a pair of new 305/30/26’s that I had to pull off the front of my Silvy because they rubbed (it’s bagged) and they’re hanging up in my shed. They’re the same size as the tires I run on the back so I’ll end up putting them back there. Sounds like I won’t have any issues, good to know.
