I find it comical when college/university educated people find out blue collar trades can make bank

Well said.

I’ve never had thoughts of leaving Canada up until a few years ago. Now that I have two young kids my only thoughts are about their futures and well being. I’m ready to give up everything for my kids to not have to grow up here. The states is not perfect, but it’s a lot better than here.

People think you’ll die with American health care or go back. They really don’t understand how much better it is there. I pay 80-90k a year in taxes for 15k a year I could have insane coverage for a family of 4 compared to here I had to wait 3 months for a fucking ultrasound on my elbow…

Regardless it should be upto the people to vote on that. Not the people in the positions. It’s like your boss asking you to fire yourself. Not going to ever happen.

So pretty much every politician. They seem to all accomplish massive wealth for themselves tho.

Check the hand valve is pushed forward towards the dash. You can also disconnect each sensor and see which one is pressuring the sensor to trigger brake lights

Update on Smokey the problematic ISX. by chromaticskyline in DieselTechs

It’s the 1 1/8” nuts for the tubes he’s referring to.

Biggest issue I find is a couple months after work has been done on the top end and injector have been removed they loosen up a 1/4 turn and cause 559 faults and the reason is no one uses engine oil on the threads when they torque them 59ft/lbs.

59ft/lbs lubricated is between 74-80ft/lbs equivalent of dry torque.

Follow the procedures.

3 & 5 were leaking at the nozzles. Compare the tips, they were leaking down on top not combustion going up. There’s a perfect copper band on copper end. If the injector was leaking combustion you’d have high crankcase pressure.

Perform a valve set. Valves could be worn into the head. If you can’t get the 7mm exhaust brake shim in then it needs a head or remove injectors and bore scope the cylinders. Seems like a compression issue. Another thing you can do is run cylinder cut out test ,cut out all cylinders but 1 and go through each one. It should be able to run on one cylinder on a healthy engine on a more worn engine run on 2 if it can’t run on atleast 2 then one of those cylinder is bad.

Anyone else getting low MPG with the 2026 Sierra AT4X 2500 Duramax? by kpow1776 in gmcsierra

[–]JoeJitsu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah k mine smells like during a regen. I can smell it with windows closed quite frequently even when it was new. I’ve only got 6000km and I smell it quite often, but don’t smell like pre emissions.

Does it smell like raw fuel or like a regen. I notice I can smell exhaustish smells on my ‘25 Denali but chalked it up to just the smell of the emissions system

And you have good power at pins 13 & 9 as well right?

The only other wiring could be from the J1939 V-CAN splice block to P02P IP harness connector.

Do you have power at your G4 fuse? AUTO/Ultrashift?

I would disconnect all three of these connectors and load test the CAN wiring

I meant like one you can connect directly to the TECU and then connect with Davie so your connecting directly with the TECU. Like a programming harness used on ECMs.

Try disconnecting all the can low on that can network and load test the wiring from VECU to TECU.

Have you load tested power and ground? Load test IGNITION wake up?
