pick this up at your locall autozone. It is worth the $15. I would think that you could buy a small kit with all those sockets there as well. I don't believe they would not be exspensive. David.
Yea, I agree with the fuel filters. I just went thru this with my 02 Silverado. The fuel pump finally gave out because I was too stupid to change the fuel filter. It will clog and you`re ok when you are calling for normal fuel flow. When you accelerate it requires increased volume and cannot push that much thru the filter. If I would have used my head I could have saved myself about $900 bucks (tow, etc.) Fuel filters are cheap and easy.

It's all back together and works great now.
Thanks
I really would love to trade it for a Toyota Tacoma, but at 14 mpg and $4/gallon gas, it's not worth very much. Though at this rate, I can't keep throwing good money after bad. Definitely the last GM that I will buy.
Anybody bought a new GM full sizer lately?
Sure is pretty dead since they split these forums up and closed all

I just bought my very first "new" truck yesterday. A lovely 2009 Silverado with a 5.3 litre engine.
Seeing that this is my first new vehicle, I have a question in rergards to break-in periods and gasoline consumption.
I've only driven 100km (60 miles) and the tank is down 1/4 from a full tank. Now I might sound a bit paranoid but is this normal or will this consumption get better as the engine slowly breaks-in?
Can anyone help?

Thanks Chris
thanks
If your truck had an overhead cam it wouldn't be much of an issue. Since yours is a pushrod the labor to r/r the cam bearings might be more than the truck is worth.
i was wondering how is your gas milage now that it is a year later. have you made any upgrades like cold air filter, muffler, tonneau cover? thanks!
Thanks for your help.....
It started with a small vibration and the last 9 visits the problem gets worse. Balanced tires, took to another tire store, dealer replaced two tires due to road force issues???? The dealer seems to have givin up and said I can go to another dealer for second opinion. This dealer also took for attempt and two new latches to align a tail gate latch. Vehicle now has 11k mile and the tire store said the tires are stating to scallop due to the tire bouncing.
Anyone else have this vibration issue? Any fixes?
I had similar balance issues also but of the six times the dealer found it was out of balance each time!!!!! so I had them go to a tire dealer that has done excellent balance on my two Lexus and again he found them way out but his balance didn't really make it much better. One of the delaer reps said they corrected a similar condition with Michelan tires but they refuse to put them on my new truck,
Have you had your vehicle back to the dealer since you did your own test? I would definitely recommend speaking with them. Please keep me update on your situation.
