Thank you everyone. It really sucks sucks sucks.

Pete, no biggy. I am pretty excited. It is going to kill me to miss. I still can't believe I really will. haha

Jason, I am flying. So maybe you can waive at me from the bomber.

The circle will convene at the usual time in case you change your mind.

Will leave an open bottle of beer for you at every meeting.

Extended for charter members only...

The circle is the first thing I thought of. hahaha

I would try and couple the fest with our anniversary but Bonnie would freaking kill me. hahaha

So here is pretty much what the relo kit will do. Now changing the sensor will be a 5 minute job and not a 5 hour job.

Just have to put the blower back on and secure the bracket.

Got the gaskets today. Dealer said they are actually for a 6.0 liter Avalanche. hahaha

Very nice... here's hoping you find & fix the idle stutter during the process... accidentally, intentionally... makes no difference as long as it's gone

ssmike · 07-06-2013, 09:12 AM

Can't wait to hear the good results!

PQ · 07-07-2013, 12:19 PM

Well? ...................

Looks like the oil pump..............

Mr Twisty · 07-07-2013, 01:31 PM

Well.......shat

PQ · 07-07-2013, 01:37 PM

I don't suppose there is a chance it's in the oil filter somehow?

what'd you do... fill it with sand & install it backwards?

if it's really a problem with the pump, wouldn't it at least be under warranty? unless it's something like not having a the o-ring properly installed on the pickup - but then it'd fall back on the shop that installed it wrong

*mlee* · 07-07-2013, 04:33 PM

I'm lost... how did we get to the Oil Pump now?

It's been 2 years and probably 40k miles. So I doubt it. Maybe on the pump but I sure as hell won't be going back with the same pump.

Been 4k miles since the oil filter was put on. I was just hoping maybe something could have broke loose in the filter.

Oil pressure dropped. Had a sensor code so thought it was a bad sensor. I was wrong.

I'll start taking the front apart this evening or tomorrow. Probably next weekend though. Gotta pull the front cover. Crank pulley and all. Ugh..............
