    03 Yukon no start with 1/4 tank full

    May be the fuel check valve. Got same problem. Never drive the car under 1/4 tank. CAN do it yes, but dont stop engine. You will have to refill up to about 3/8tank before you start. Many gallons. A tip is to not crank engine before you have primed pump 5 - 6 times before you crank engine...

    Transmission Oil Cooler

    Since you're going to take a ATF change, it would not take any much more to install a cooler. But if you have to choose, I would go for atf change.

    Transmission Oil Cooler

    do as jennabear. Get yourself a transcooler. My own hoe got one, never bad to have the trans cooled, when towing heavy loads. Bad thing is..... Discovered some red fluid at my drivein. After a while, I saw that the tensioner for AC jumped off and laying on the pipes. Almost lost 2 litre of...

    Check 4wd light

    two tahoes nearby (included mine) got this 4wd service when the transfercase began to leak oil. Topping up made this lamp disappear. Got this leak because the shafts sealings got bad.

    Oil drops in front.

    A local store said that the pipes is for transferring only, and have no pressures. And besides, the pipe that was damaged was the return oil from cooler, no pressure at all. Fixed it by cutting the pipe, putting a hose on, with clampes on ends. Just as rockman said. No problems at all...

    Oil drops in front.

    Flushing underbody and engine. Looks like the two cooling pipes for the transmission oil going to the cooler in bumper has been damaged. Either the belt or the tensioner have grinded the upper pipe. I'll get pictures when Im under again. Are those cooling kits included with thermostats...

    Oil drops in front.

    Oil drops in front.

    Nope, a seperate belt. Its on the inner track of the crank pulley. Its probably the smallest belt on the whole car. With a little tensioner. Going to a pulley with clutch ability. I think its the ac. Cannot really tell you all, it has a whipple installed, and dont really know what have been...

    Oil drops in front.

    Investigating the front of my Tahoe 2000 5.3, looking for a strange sound coming in higher revs. Belt for AC was just hanging on crank, it got loose someway. Discovered red fluid coming from somewhere in front of engine. Could this be ATF? Hyd.oil from steering? Its 15- outside, dont wanna...

    Rear bucket seats

    one of the rules is that a cage between front seats and loading bay is installed. APPROVED cages. Removing or modifying the cage is causing the government to make you pay for having more seats installed. Some of the tricks to avoid high taxes: 1. Convert the car into a heavy truck. You need...

    Rear bucket seats

    Well... the big extra money for converting the truck to a passenger car, driving with passangers in not approved seats with no safety belts, new EU-test and so on. THe seats I got with my car is 2+1. I believe that the single seat is to be removed if the 3rd row is installed. Two single...

    Rear bucket seats

    Dont know what you mean with bucket seats...? 2nd or 3rd seat row? You know the multiple punishment for installing more than 3 seats in those cars? BTW, my own is a 2000, only one year left :P
