    New Driver - Now having MPG Issues - Questions??

    Do APUs not come with hour meters? I would think they do but I don't have one so I don't know. If not installing one should give you some sort of idea that may help determine if he is using it or idling the truck..

    O2 Sensor Help.

    Wish I could help ya,, But I cant. With that said and in my opinion: If you tried everything you can think and capable of doing yourself in the driveway, Just admit defeat and let GM fix it (or other reputable shop). Sometimes its just best to stop throwing money at wild guessing and get it over...

    Why do you not use TA/Petro as your primary truck stop?

    Dirt..Plain and simple Its Dirt. (for areas I run) From parking lots to the showers. T/A is in need of a major upgrade for the most part in my book.Not only the buildings but parking lots also. I have been trying to get away from Pilot fuel for sometime now and been fueling with T/A/Petro a...

First thing I would do is raise the F/axle off the ground (with some cribbing in place) check wheel bearings and steering column,,looking for any movement that should not be there and listen for any parts hitting. Get a bar under the tire...

Process I went thru was to get rid of stickers with a lil heat..(seems the hotter I got a sticker the more glue that was left behind???) Trick maybe to just get the vinly warm & soft and peel...
