    T87 Swaps

    What about planning on zip tying the a40/a50/t14 connector and adapter to the shroud, with enough wire to relocate the T87 to the firewall? And I could see the potential for two options: option 1: a box of pins and parts that you have to put together for 'x' price (cheapest) or option 2: An...

    01-10 Steering - Saginaw gear experts - What are reasonable expectations?

    James, if I could ask a related question... With regards to the four bolt vs six bolt boxes, with regards to Minhworx rebuilding them, is there any difference between them? Like, would one be better off finding a cheap six bolt unit and have them rebuild that, or does it really not make a lick...

    Ooof .. might be better if we can 'turn it off'...

    T87 Swaps

    We'll see how that works... I put a resistor in l parallel with the solenoid in my truck so it brought the resistance down to ~5 ohms, and the DTC changed from an incorrect resistance code to an incorrect current code. 🤦‍♂️

    You should check out the lock picking lawyer on YouTube... His April 1st videos for the last bunch of years have been hilarious (In a dirty but clean sort of way lol).

    LBZ Block worth?

    Here are a few pics. I'm 30-40 minutes west of St Louis.

    Efi live question motors lmm 07

    Not terribly likely on LBZ/LMM where flashing occurs on the High Speed CAN Bus. Different story with the LB7 and LLY that nearly everything shared the Class2 bus that the ECM was flashed over. That being said, aside from the first few paranoid times I flashed my ECM when my truck was still a...

    LBZ Block worth?

    I have an LBZ block from when I converted my truck from LLY to LBZ over a decade ago that's just been sitting in the garage since then. The 'original' plan was to built it and then swap in with the existing LBZ top end, but you know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men. It is...

    Efi live question motors lmm 07

    So they replaced the ECM and BCM and no change? Like Tom said, I would STRONGLY advise that you get the original ECM and BCM back... It sounds more like the canbus is open or shorted somewhere. I'm on the west side of the river and could take a look at the original ECM and BCM on the bench to...

    2002 LB7 what is the right oil filter wrench?

    This kind of strap wrench is the best IMO. I use this type with a half inch drive ratchet, never failed to get a filter off yet.

    T87 Swaps

    Good idea.. But the only possible thorn in the side is supposedly, these 2-wire hall effect sensors have some sort of current aspect, not just voltage. So we may be able to make it 'sort of happy', enough to get a value, but it still might be ticked off.

    T87 Swaps

    The first A40/A50/T14 to T87 test adapter harness. Only had two unexpected DTCs initially, one of which I figured out and resolved pretty quick, the other might be a little more difficult. In my quick drive up my street, things worked (or didn't work) in ways that I expected.

    2012 GMC LML won’t start, have CP3 upgrade questions

    'Technically', no, you don't need a lift pump if you believe GM... But the 2010 Jetta my wife had, had a Bosch ECM and fuel system and had a lift pump.... Sooo... In reality, it's NEVER a bad idea to add a lift pump, be it FASS, Air dog, Kennedy, whatever. All of them will reduce the stress on...

    2015 Malibu (and others) connector type/de-pinning

    Yeah, it does seem 'old schoolish' lol. If I knew exactly what I was working with with regards to how it's locked in, that would help, but this one is uber stubborn lol.

    2015 Malibu (and others) connector type/de-pinning

    *sewing... lol. 😛 Tried paper clips, every possible option in the 'kit', nothing seems to work... The T87 and E80/E92A were similar, in that I couldn't find anything to 'properly' release them, but with those, I ended up removing the lower retainer that you're 'not supposed to remove (lol)' and...
