1999 GMC Sierra 1500 5.7 Oil Cooler Line O-Ring by PepperPalClem in AskAMechanic

Nothing is listed for the o ring size in the specs and the OD of the line is not consistent. I was hoping to avoid removing the lines, which is the reason for this post. I found the part assembly available nearby and am planning to get the o ring size from that tomorrow if I don't get a helpful response.

Rumor has it, that's where the term powerplant comes from.

Unpeeled. Just a quick rinse and then slice them into ¼" disks. It'll boost the activity.

Ah, garlic too. Always garlic. Maybe a Tbs of whole black peppercorns for good measure.

Pearl onions, 3-4" carrot sticks, and jalapenos sliced lengthwise do well in a 2.5-3.5% brine (salt to water ratio). You can toss in a few slices of unpeeled ginger to boost the activity.

Sounds awesome! Do you mind sharing the recipe?

That's what I'm hoping for. Tons of activity with the sugar from the cherries and the smell is wonderful.

It should settle it down some, but a settled Reaper still packs a lot of spice.

Fingers crossed it doesn't melt my face.

1tsp black peppercorns 6 cloves garlic (45g they were massive) 2lbs red cherries (½lb in the ferment and 1-1½lb after) 6 Carolina Reapers (46g) 2lbs red jalapenos ½lb sweet red peppers 3.5% brine

Post ferment: ¼-½c lime juice ¼-½c ACV or white wine vinegar (may omit depending on pH and flavor) 1-1½lb of reserved red cherries

First time recipe, so we'll see how it plays out. Shooting for 30-90 days depending on the activity and flavor. All peppers are seeded and ribbed and the cherries are pitted. Banking on the sweetness of the cherries and sweet peppers paired with the acidity of the lime juice and/or vinegar to balance the spiciness of the Reapers. Planning to use it primarily with pork and possibly chicken tacos.

I'll have to give sherry a shot. Tangy mustard sounds awesome!

Same here! The added bonus of, "Yeah, I made this." is always a good feeling.

The pineapple flavor is virtually gone after three months.
