Do You Wait For The Oil Change Reminder In Your GM?
FargoZ71 replied to Gorehamj's topic in The Garage Archive
I still have my 2003 Silverado with a 5.3, It has gone through a few transformations, some upgrades not listed in my outdated sig, but the Change oil dummy light almost always comes up prior to me changing it. The truck still uses no oil between oil changes at 145k, I use Mobil 1 5w-30 full syn each oil change and change it every 5000 miles, but the dummy light in my older truck that either uses miles or hours as an indicator goes off about 500-1000 miles earlier than I plan on changing it. But, key to start and 3 floored gas pedals remedy's it for me. -
PSA rifles are very good basic AR's, a stripped lower and then there complete gun build kit would work to.. takes about 2 hours total for a first timer to assemble a AR-15. All you need is the upper reciever vice block to install the barrel, a pair of lock jaw pliers, some patients, lube for the barrel nut, and a armor's tool.

5.3 Gen IV a bad engine?
FargoZ71 replied to tonyghkbve's topic in 1999-2013 Silverado & Sierra 1500
See around where I live it would be the same way with 4.8's, 5.3 is by far the most popular. So issues I've seen with with vortecs and 5.3's in general, a little oil burn on the occasional AFM model- usually not enough to require adding between oil changes. And with Vortec's in general- Intake gaskets.. god damn intakes.. replaced mine at 107k, mines a gen3, but it's been flawless and a workhorse other then the intake gasket. There easy to make decent power with, and well.. its a SBC.. parts are in abundance for sure, and cheap.
