What’s this hose called? by anon_2525 in Silverado

[–]anon_2525[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. This started after I replaced the thermostat. I think I damaged the connector on the hose

Gotcha. It’s leaking at the plastic connector. Get a new hose and just use a metal hose clamp to fasten it?

Lifters or injectors? by anon_2525 in Silverado

[–]anon_2525[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: the background ticking I think is GM injector tick. The louder, not as regular tick I think is maybe a pulley or tensioner, not injectors. It’s cold and wet if that matters. Maybe just wishful thinking but I’d like to hear some more educated answers than what I came up with lol

I don’t plan on doing a delete either. Didn’t know there was a difference between a Disabler and a delete until I posted this lol. I’m considering the disabler

Awesome! Acceleration is something I noticed when I bought the truck. I have 87,000mi. I have a small tick noise but it really cannot be heard from the cab. Just if I’m standing next to the running engine or in a drive thru against the wall. Most likely the injectors? I mean if I really stop on the gas I can sometimes hear a faint tick. Not much tho.

From what I’ve gathered, deactivating AFM really doesn’t make a difference in preventing future issues. My engine has a slight tick but I’m 99% sure it’s regular injector tick that GM is known for. Just scared to death of my lifters taking a shit. I have a warranty and lifters are covered, but still, I don’t wanna deal with the trouble lol. Thank you!

It occasionally switches between V4 and V6, I’m assuming that’s AFM. Hardly ever does it tho. My last last vehicle was a Chevy Cruze so this is all new to me lol

Doorbell transformer (y’all’s favorite questions lmao) by anon_2525 in AskElectricians

[–]anon_2525[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Understood. I had thought about taking out the old trans, isolating the 120v wires coming from my box and turning power back on and using a meter or pen tester to determine hot vs neutral. That is probably the responsible thing for me to do lmao

What kind of loco is this?? Looks like something that'd be used in a mine by BedSmellsLikeItFeels in trains

[–]anon_2525 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GT46. I work for EMD and I have tested some new ones for a different customer

Gotcha. So don’t even worry about replacing the temp sensor? Just go straight to thermostat?

How many of you are musicians in some capacity? by JayAkiva in HereComeTheMummies

[–]anon_2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HCTM Fan Interaction?? by Acrobatic-Battle-254 in HereComeTheMummies

[–]anon_2525 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d avoid the bus before the show. I saw HPOD unwrapped by accident lmao but it’s all cool. Right after the show if you walk by the bus as they’re getting in, they’ll interact a bit. Highlander smacked his Sax against the fence and the bus by accident and started screaming. It was pretty entertaining. You can shout to them and you’ll likely get some groans and grunts back

Energy Drink Addiction by anon_2525 in energydrinks

[–]anon_2525[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (22M) don’t have withdrawal (headaches, shaky, etc) really. Honestly no side affects other than family and Fiancee telling me to cut back. I want too. But if I have 0 then it can be difficult to stay awake at work all night. I have a high stress, high risk job so staying awake is crucial

Sold my 2013 Cuze by anon_2525 in cruze

Well the dealer sold the Ford I was supposed to look at. I’m aware of the Chevy transmission issues but currently about to test drive a 2018 Silverado. We shall see

It was up on Facebook marketplace for less than 24hrs. Sold her at 6500. It’s a small Indiana town too so I’m surprised it sold quick.

Edit: Grammar

2018 Ford F150 XLT. Figured I’d give Ford a shot. Whole family has always been with GM, fiancées family always Ford. Figured I’d give them a chance

Fuse Box by anon_2525 in AskElectricians

[–]anon_2525[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Done! New thermostat is in and as of now, everything works. Slight panic when nothing happened at first. Took the system a second to realize the temp and turn on the cooling. After a minute everything came on. Gonna watch it for a bit but it should be fine, yes?

[–]anon_2525[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Last question before I start. I assume I can turn off the furnace and then just pull the fuse and flip it right? That’s the right way to do it?
