  1. WARNING #2

     

    If you guys can't control yourselves, this thread will be locked like countless others, and yes I will hand out warnings and vacations from this site if need be. Enough is enough! If you guys can't get over your egos, don't talk to each other, if you don't have something nice to say or have valid information to give, don't say anything at all.

     

    I love how everyone complains about the site and how it has changed, and that senior members keep leaving. Don't you guys get it? It's crap like this and numerous threads that go down the toilet in this fashion that are the cause....but no, you all blame us moderators who have to police this stuff and keep after a bunch of children who can't play nice in the sand box. Egos and attitudes like illustrated in this thread are what is ruining this site, PERIOD.

     

    If the OP never comes back, I won't be surprised after all this. If you guys can't control yourselves or have a problem with each other, take it up via PM and keep it off these boards.

     

    Next person to step out of line will face disciplinary action....

  2. I have never gone by the OLM in any of the 5 GM vehicles I have owned. I don't need a computer to tell me when to change my oil. My Tahoe gets an oil change every 4k with full synthetic, the SS every 6 months since she sits most of the time.

     

    The longer you go between oil change intervals, the more the oil will break down, leaving a greater chance of sludge buildup in your motor. It doesn't matter if it is conventional or synthetic oil, it's just the nature of the beast.

  3. *Topic moved to correct section*

     

     

    Before choosing a TC, you need to think about your future goals. If you don't plan on forced induction or engine internals, a 3000-3200 stall is a good match that will really wake up an SS with a stock motor. If you do plan on serious power mods, you may want a higher stall.

     

    Also, stay away from the TT series Yank converters as they do not have a good track record with these trucks.

  4. Since you have replaced the purge valve, vent solenoid valve, and gas cap, it's time for a qualified shop to do a smoke test to find the true source of the leak. P0455 is a mass EVAP leak, don't throw any more parts at it....

  5. Great.......I will be there in the AM. Is there somewhere onsite to wash her up after the ride, or should I hit somewhere outside the fairgrounds?

    If you guys want /need anything let me know!!

     

    If you have washing supplies with you, they have an area along the main entrance where hoses are provided so you can wash your ride. If you do not have supplies, you can pick some up at the fair grounds or at one of the area auto part stores. There are also a few automatic car washes and a do it yourself car wash in town....
