    NEED HELP Nasty Intermittent P0455

    FWIW: My neighbor has a 2004 Buick V6 with the exact same purge valve as my 03TB I6. The purge valve would not close and set a P0455. New valve solved problem.

    Back to bad MPG heat range causing it?

    I assume that you have checked the evap. system purge valve. It is up front, drivers side, under the intake manifold.

    NEED HELP AC not blowing cold air, possible freon leak

    FWIW: My 03 TBLT with 139k miles, after 13 years had a Freon leak in the HP line from the condenser to evaporator. Had to remove air filter box to find the leak with dye.

    That little rubber nipple in your first picture belongs in the connector for test port. The test port is like a tire valve stem.

    So give me some feedback

    If you are looking for a old guy (shade tree), you got one here. Worse project ever. New bushings in UCA's of 1974 Camaro.

    NEED SOME ENGINE ADVICE

    Back in the old days, you would remove all of the plugs to do a compression test. This would allow the engine to spin freely. This might be the reason for a possible low reading. Just a thought.

    hvac actuators and dash removal

    @droos Welcome to the site. About two years ago, a fellow made a homemade puller out of a chain link (U shaped with a threaded thumb screw that he got at a Home Depot). I have no idea how to find that thread without a lot of searching.

    Strange A/C issue

    Feel the accumulator (passenger side @ fire wall). Should be cold, sweating if high humidity. Probably low on Freon.

    Gas guage not working

    I would suggest that you inspect the "weather pack" connector in the wiring at the tank area for corrosion and spray with contact cleaner and add some dielectric grease to the contacts.

    Solved - Noise while on accelerator - no noise when coasting

    Just a suggestion. Possible dry U-Joint?

    Changing spark plugs.

    My spark plug socket has a rubber insert that fits over the porcelain. Helps to keep the socket vertical and not crack the porcelain. FWIW

    GM Special Coverage Program 14423

    It was my understanding that this recall only applied to the long wheel base (three rows of seats) vehicles. Mine is a short wheel base, therefor I have no idea what I did with the letter. Sorry.

    SOLVED!-04 Trailblazer LT 4.2 L no crank - no start

    FWIW. I bought my 03 TB new, and the dealer made a extra key at my request. They told me that only GM dealer or locksmith could make a ignition key for it. Edit: because of the security system.
