    Moog makes the best uppers and ball joints IMHO, they are reasonably priced online and significantly cheaper than going to an auto parts store ......and if I remember correctly they have good warranties. I abuse my truck on the daily and they are still holding up strong after 2 years no...

    Engine knock (newbie)

    Hey, just a thought, as I'm not an expert but speaking from a personal experience of mine with my 98 k1500 5.7 ecsb:. I had similar "knocking " sounds coming from what I thought was my motor when I first got my truck a couple years ago. Looked high and low listen to all around did all sorts of...

    The Stupid Engine Questions Thread

    Ok well I'm back at this head gasket/intake gasket dilemma and got a question.... Is there any way to tell if my head gaskets/heads are bad without having to take everything below the intake off? I'm where I was in the picture I posted a few posts ago on here .... Sent from my Redmi Note 7...

    The Stupid Engine Questions Thread

    They arent leaking but I gotta change a blown head gasket now and figured it would be convenient to remove it.....so it's not intended to be removed once the lugs are in there huh? Would one of those rebuild kits with new lugs be worth it to remove it for ocds sake? Sent from my Redmi Note 7...

    1996 GMC Yukon 5.7 4l60e 4x4 multiple misfires but no check engine light

    Ok its just a cheap abn vacuum tester from Amazon and when I connected it to the vacuum line that goes to the brake booster the little arrow went to the green "normal" part of the gauge I get it it's not 100% accurate but it can't hurt to have some reference in the whole troubleshooting process...

    1996 GMC Yukon 5.7 4l60e 4x4 multiple misfires but no check engine light

    I get where your coming from with your response and yeah I'm a pretty amateur shade tree mechanic no lie but i have looked at the real time data with dash command and I have seen all of my cylinders at various times misfire .....I get what your saying about the generic p0300 code but I have done...

    1996 GMC Yukon 5.7 4l60e 4x4 multiple misfires but no check engine light

    It's just a bafx obd2 Bluetooth adapter that I have used dash command and torque pro with .....I hope your right because I agree the readings are all screwy but I assumed the obd2 plug in isn't messed up .....does that happen very often ? It's one of the things I have overlooked definitely so...

    1996 GMC Yukon 5.7 4l60e 4x4 multiple misfires but no check engine light

    My 98 5.7 has been giving me same problems more or less if your check engine light isn't on now it probably will be soon my light comes on intermittently I would start out with checking for a vacuum leak.... Hopefully for you that's the culprit. I don't have a vacuum leak according to my...

    Obd2 adapter bad?

    I use my smartphone with torque pro at the moment..... I've also used dash command they both get the same kind of results so I'm thinking the problem is in the truck ..... It's a 98 k1500 5.7 ecsb btw Sent from my Redmi Note 7 using Tapatalk
