    Oil pressure sensor questions

    one is a SENDER and one is a switch. Just remember BELL (sender) is for your gauge the other is a switch.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    passed week or so: -trimmed transmission dipstick tube, changed seal (leaking) as well as calibrating the stick to the pan seal -replaced MAF sensor with a Delphi unit fixed the lean condition I've had for 2 years (got money back for faulty Duralast at AutoZone) -replaced Spectre Air Filter...

    What I have done to my Square lately…

    Why would do that knowing it's going to cause confusion. Start your own build post with a title "specific" to your build. Sorry just sayin'

    Drove up to OH to pickup a nice set of bucket seats. Figured while I was gonna be his way, I hollered @bucket to trade other stuff. Seats look great. Hopefully it works out. Good to see you again Andy, Thanks for the bumper.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    If I get that old I'll use this type and cardboard to protect the truck....and can be used around the house. Sorry...over thinking. I have one, never thought to use it this way. I just slap some thick styrofoam on top of the sh|t and lay on that. Can't get cheaper than that. I do have a 3'...

    Rough Idle, smells rich, P0171 and P0174 codes on 5.3L

    Good to know. Mine is full stock, never been tuned road or dyno. Want to do it, but dang at $500-600 I've got other stuff to do to the truck. I know, i'm missing out on a bunch.

    Rough Idle, smells rich, P0171 and P0174 codes on 5.3L

    update to my issue. Turns out the 2 MAF sensors from Autozone (2 yrs ago, duralast) were bad. On a whim, I changed the maf to a Delphi and my codes are gone and my LTFT's are down to ~5% at idle from a constant 25% before. We'll see how much of a warranty is on the AZ maf.....be nice to get...

    Dipstick tube BS

    Thanks for the pic. Was gonna look at it today but didn't have time. I have 2 sticks (both LS), the one I have installed has the "tab" installed, the other I ground off. I have a spare 4l60e I can slap it into. Hopefully get on it tomorrow to investigate more. 3/4" compression fittings on...

    Dipstick tube BS

    Sick of trying to snake in the tube on the LS swap and not get a good seal. Screw it, I'm getting a few more tools to make this sh|t easier. The tube I have tab doesn't line up with a bolt on the trans to hold it firmly in place. Having one that is 2 piece will make life easier on my scared...

    Vent Window rubber replacement or replace?

    Found the video that helped me a lot. Yeh it's a "homemade" video but there were good points and good chances to freeze it. Thought I had it d/l'd......d/ling now lol.

    LS 6.0 Runability Issue

    right, but I took someone to a yard that i half trust. He said " if it's not a 5.3 are you going to feel the difference? I mean, they have the same lower end as the other". No they don't. Lesson learned again from this yard, it was a 4.8. So now he's had to get a 5.3 crank and connecting...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    changed transmission filter and pan today. All was well until I found one of the bolts striped going in...too late to fool with. Be nice if the bolt is messed up, but I doubt it. Looking at options to fix it. Taking them out, one bolt was tighter than the rest all the way out. I should have...

    Vent Window rubber replacement or replace?

    it's a lot of tedious pita work but very doable. If I can do it with no feeling/dexterity on my index/middle fingers on my right hand, you can do it. I'm pretty sure I put a video within the last week showing step by step. Lube is key.
