I'm going to change the pcv in my 2000 Silverado 5.3

But I see that it is also connected at the intake manifold to a component that isn't the pcv do I change that at the same time.

  Great project. I had the same idea and had also removed (well the trail helped) my lower plastic airdams. Just last week I had a local weld shop modify a receiver cross bar to tuck up tight to bumper. To avoid a few things, they made it protrude out more than I like, but still happy. I only have the plastic factory skid plate underneath. Did remove the frame “cups” and the recovery hooks to make room.

  At least on my 24 with the 10L1000 the dash display for trans temp exactly matches what my OBD2 monitor shows. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for coolant temp, the dash gauge is essentially an idiot light at this point.

  Years ago this was a big problem with any vehicle with multiple leaf springs. I had a grease wedge that you would hammer into the springs and shoot some grease in between the leaf. I have not seen that tool in years. I would go to an old timer and see if he has one. It made the back end ride like new.

  It is acceptable. The temp range is really to just make sure the t-stat is open and fluid is circulating fully. (Even easier is to just put in 6 qts.)
- Seat Belt Warning 2006 Silverado

  Hi Hopefully someone has already encountered this and figured out the fix. I get in the truck and start the engine: -the seat belt light will be on. -when I fasten the belt, the light will start blinking. -after ~1 minute (driving or sitting still) the light will go off, the 'Fasten Seat Belt' will illuminate on the dash and the system will beep a few times. The 'Fasten Seat Belt' will go off after a few seconds. -after ~3 minutes, same thing with the 'Fasten Seat Belt' on the dash and a few beeps again. 'Fasten Seat Belt' goes back off. Nothing else happens again. -This happens whether or not the passenger belt is buckled. I've taken compressed air and blown out both buckle latches - no help. Ideas?
