Had a good round of work on the H3 today with Reloader's help. (Okay, "Reloader's help" means he does most of the hard stuff). I don't drive the H3 as much anymore but it seems it always needs something. Guess it needs some TLC at 143,000
Next up - new upper/lower radiator hoses
When doing the brake jobs, AC Delco puts in that little packet of silicone in with the pads. I always want about 10% more than they supply, so I found the good stuff on Amazon. AC Delco Silicone Brake Lubricant - this is the good stuff for the pads, sliders, etc. and I don't think you'll usually find it in auto parts stores.
- Reprogrammed PCM installed (PCM of NC)
- Left motor mount
- Oil pressure switch - oil light was coming on at stoplights, would go away with increased RPMs (I paid $42 at O'Reilly for aftermarket, and it's only $16 on Amazon!!!)
- Front brake pads
- Transfer case fluid change - did it early, just to see color after about 2500 miles of use
- PCV vent hose - this was soft and oil was seeping out and going down back of engine. Thought I had a different leak.
- Oil change
- Tire rotation
- New nutserts in front crossmember for splash shield and skid plates
- Tightened oddly loose lower control arm bolt
Next up - new upper/lower radiator hoses
