    Idler Replacement

    also, if it is the belt and not the bearing get a belt that is a half inch to inch shorter than recommended by gm, it will put more pressure on all the pulleys and increase friction therefore eliminating your squeak.

    Idler Replacement

    i have seen power steering pumps squeal like hell, it is awful, you chase every bearing and that is the last suspect. try using a mechanics stethoscope or a looong screwdriver (poor mans version) and listen to each bearing individually.

    installing blocker plate/finger stick AND code P0403 question

    installing blocker plate/finger stick AND code P0403 question

    sorry i just got into this thread, be very weary of that finger stick. some work and some do not and some fail after a while. it might be your truck or the stick but either way it is not a 100% good fix for the egr codes, i strongly recommend an efi tune even if it is just to eliminate the...

    Whos interested in doing a diesel convoy...?

    the cruise we did in 08 was a blast but that was all back roads. and was a little tough to keep everybody together. i would love to see triple the trucks on this one and i think some backroad but mostly highway would be a little better.
