    Diesel in crankcase

    For Tahoes, if it's a 5.3 or a 6.0 it'll last 400-500k if regular fluid changes and not doing burnouts and the such, I'm more familiar with them than I am a hemi but as far as diesel in the oil goes, I don't do it unless I see alot of buildup in my valve covers, even then I don't ever go more...

    Radiator Cap Part Number

    But if you're talking your reservoir tank it doesn't take much for that to keep pressure because the lid on that doesn't necessarily hold say 15 psi, it has to go through a few things and they usually have some type of breather built in anyways otherwise it would burst first time it heats up and...

    Radiator Cap Part Number

    I'm no expert but last I checked radiator caps are relatively universal, find one the right psi and hole size from your local parts store, kinda like a gas cap, as long as it fits it should work but the psi ranges for different applications, but it should say either stamped into the cap or on a...

    Lack of Power

    Another thing is I noticed with my '06 sometimes there will be a code but it won't show up on the dashlight for some reason, if you have a scanner it never hurts to double check Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    $20 each for the rubber inserts, $130 for left mount, $300ish for the right mount, it's worth it to buy the mounts if you have plenty of money, trying to budget lol, got a huge vacation (for me anyways, first real adult one) planned this winter my brother already paid for Sent from my Moto Z...

    Engine swap on 2006 1500 mega cab from 5.7 hemi

    Made the mistake of messing with motor mount bushings, going to have to use a press at work and get another insert for the right side, slid off and had a close call, you ever messed with the 06-09 cast P.I.T.A. mounts? Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    Engine swap on 2006 1500 mega cab from 5.7 hemi

    Lol well I kinda already got them from rock Auto already, I've heard that on gm 3800 series 2 also but they ran amazing when I used then in that, personally I think brand is everything, autolite irridium is all I've ever used and I've loved them but then again I've never triffled with...

    Engine swap on 2006 1500 mega cab from 5.7 hemi

    Is my new hemi going to implode if I use autolite irridium? And gap is .44 correct? And when people say face the ground together for better spark do they mean the point or the back of the ground rod? You are a man of many answers Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    2005 4.7L overheat problems

    Heat clutch for sure on that, replacing a heat clutch is much cheaper than an engine lol, I'm in the process of replacing an engine because I had zero knowledge on heat clutches prior Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

    2005 4.7L overheat problems

    Me personally, when I change anything cooling system I change water pump, thermostat, check radiator hoses for softness when cold, they'll be soft when the engine is warm, check your overflow tube to, I had one pinched one time that caused that, and it depends if you have a heat clutch on the...
