    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    I was surprised, tapered bolt popped right loose from knuckle. I did have a fair size pry bar onnit but usually have to rap on the knuckle where the bolt goes through to get them to pop loose. The nut wasnt real tight too. An alignment shop installed those for me.

    Checking balling joints. The upper control arms has not that many miles and time on them. I replaced them maybe five or six years ago. Both lowers good, left upper good. Right upper.

    Cat has never used split lock warshers. Always hard flat warshers only. Their thoughts and ways are best. Why would any install a component thats already broke on anything. Many times I have used that theory, pulled lock washers and installed hard flart warshers.

    What does the optical eye sensor on a injection pump do?

    Throttle position sensor, shut off solenoid and maybe a stepper motor for advance or possibly cold engine fast idle. I’m not familiar with all the connections on a DB2 pump.

    My 2005 Yukon XL

    I have a ground on the left side of My truck. Seems the headlamps and etc might be connected to that. I run a 10 gauge ground wire from that to the engine block. I have read that adding extra grounding wires can be counter productive but I did not want to depend on a flimsy body to battery...
