    Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! I loosened up the distributor clamp (total PIA) and cranked the distributor CCW until the front screw was close to the upper manifold. Started it up with my Foxwell scanner attached, cleared the code, and waited. No code returned! Thanks again to east302!! Now...

    Thanks for the reply! I agree on 1 degree not being enough to create a code; all the info I've read is that you're good if it's +-2 degrees. I'm thinking that maybe the Torque app isn't as accurate as I need. I had to add the PID manually which included a formula. I triple checked the formula...

    Well, it's been three months to the day that I tore into my Suburban thinking I had a leaking freeze plug. I know I haven't been very diligent about posting in my progress, but with work and cold/rainy weather it's been a slow progress. As of today the engine is 100% back together. I've done the...

    Just starting back on the project. Weather and just a bout of laziness has kept me from doing much of anything. I did get the steer box out this weekend! That was a challenge!

    I've been dark for a while, but I'm still plugging away on the Suburban. The new spider is installed, and the upper and lower manifold gaskets replaced and torqued down. I'm almost positive the leak was from the lower manifold and not the freeze plug. Today I completed the removal of the HVAC...

    I was thinking about laying down gasket material after cleaning really good, then level it off with a razor blade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    That doesn’t look good. Corrosion by the front coolant ports. Thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I may be wrong, but I’m pretty sure this manifold has been removed before judging by the sloppy RTV work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
