since I bought my 01' sierra & have the dreaded white smoke I've read a lot of threads on this & some other forums. 2 things have come up several times & i'm wondering......
1-because of water & mud possibly getting in the air box some g.m. dealers & have sealed the holes in the fender wells. what if a piece of say 14 or 12 gauge aluminum was cut 4" overall larger than the hole in the fender liner & was bolted to the liner with a spacer at the bolts. you'd still have ventilation & there'd be a 2" overlap at the hole to protect the hole from any water, snow, or mud.
2-there is quite a debate about pre-filling fuel filters with unfiltered fuel. what about pre-filling the filter with injector cleaner??
i'm obviously spending way too much time on these forums.
