Full Tune Up on the Sierra Project (02 Sierra Rebuild Part 3)

[@stardusk1726]

I drive a 2000 silverado 4.3 and the differences between the two trucks just from the few years of difference is insane 😂. Thanks for the video Very helpful

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you

[@johnrushing9469]

Thanks for your videos, easy to follow. I have lowered my 99 Silverado and done a full tune up. Keep the videos coming!!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you

[@Tonyscasa]

I just bought a 2002 Sierra 2500 . Using it to start a scrapping business. I like the truck and it’s straight forward in regard to fixing it . Only thing killing is the obscene fuel consumption

[@TWAMotorsports]

Do a good tune up

[@dlo__3929]

Can’t wait to see this build. 6.0 in the future?

[@TWAMotorsports]

I would love to do that but not sure what motor yet.

[@dlo__3929]

TWA Motorsports 6.0 is all the way. You can mod the hell out of that engine.

[@TWAMotorsports]

@@dlo__3929 I would either be that or 4.8 or 5.3 with a turbo but who knows. I should probably keep the v6 and give to my son for his first truck.

[@gordonenquist36]

Thanks for the video, have '97 Chevy OBS with 4.3 V6 like yours and I am at the cap and rotor stage of things. You have taken the mystery out of those parts for me. I have also moved or removed items that will "bite" me. You seemed to breeze right on through all that air conditioning stuff, hoses wiring, etc. impressive. Cheers

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Just working through all the old stuff

[@eguyntx1812]

Nice job u got a lot done

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I felt like I did a lot that day lol

[@nha2448]

Thank you so much

[@stacydornan9765]

Good job Travis,the old girl will run like a clock now.I always use AC DELCO PLUGS T BRO

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you Stacy. Yeah the delcos are a great plug. I didn't think e3 plugs would give it an extra 300hp the advertisements say lol

[@saintnificent5532]

Aaaaand there it is ladies and gentlemen, The Famous Drip between the block and bellhousing!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Like all of them

[@joedesalvo3316]

ever thought about changing the gauge cluster with one that has the trans temp gauge?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Not really but may add that to the list if it gets a V8 swap.

[@codydonovan7356]

I'll have to try the fuel filter change on my truck. It starts really hard some mornings (sometimes 2 or 3 cranks). Then idles rough like it's fighting to stay alive. Never stalls out but comes close. Has an aftermarket air filter and it's clean, so I'm thinking the fuel pump isn't doing it's job of maybe the spark plugs are bad. I just ran some Lucus oil injector/fuel cleaner to see if that would help any but no luck

[@TWAMotorsports]

Probably the fuel pump

[@malafama00]

Could you do a full install video of the Mcgaughys helper bags in the future?

[@TWAMotorsports]

If I put those on this I sure will. I do show this in my 2 other truck lowering videos i posted if that helps for now👍

[@1000Leony]

I thought you were gonna do engine swap in the near future,y will love to see that. When I change the oil in my cars I always fill the new filter with oil before installing it on the engine,what do you think about that??👍👍

[@TWAMotorsports]

I may do a V8 swap. Not sure yet. I think it's a great idea. I generally do that but was in a tight area trying to film lol.

[@JKZ103]

Saw this old video and watched it again. The green truck has come a long way... I couldn't pull that turd of a v6 out of my truck fast enough... I will say they are hard to kill though.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Lol. They are good motors but underpowered

[@Cheeseburgerperson141]

If u get the engine back in the trans am will you ever be paiting the lower part of the bumper like how some other T/As have it?

[@TWAMotorsports]

If you are talking about the back or ceta mod. I did it a while back 3 years ago I think

[@ginosanchez1569]

Are you going to put a roll pan ? They look good with or without when you shave the handle

[@TWAMotorsports]

Actually I don't think I'm doing a roll pan, just a new rear bumper.

[@ginosanchez1569]

@@TWAMotorsports it's going to look clean just don't end up putting Silverado taillights

[@TWAMotorsports]

@@ginosanchez1569 lol thank you

[@rocknrolldude567]

As a guy who is new to working on his truck and learning things about it, what is the benefit of new spark plugs and wires?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Old wires are brittle and can not make a good connection. Plugs foul up over time any need replaced at least every 100k miles.

[@rocknrolldude567]

TWA Motorsports is there a noticeable difference in how things will run, or is it mainly just routine maintenance to help longevity of the motor

[@isabelvalladares3183]

How do you do it to to take the coil out of its very hard

[@TWAMotorsports]

Don't know what you are asking

[@sucapizda]

Why AC Delco over NGK for plugs??? The long answer please.

[@TWAMotorsports]

I guess the reason would be I think of ngk as a performance option and this truck does not check that box so I just used good platinum replacement.

[@sucapizda]

TWA Motorsports Oh ok. I just put a set of platinum NGK’s in to my ws6 and thought it should ONLY have AC delco for some computer related reason or something.

[@TWAMotorsports]

@@sucapizda no. I run ngk in my ta too

[@tinyturbo317]

Is the same truck that you removed chrome trim and was a work truck?

[@TWAMotorsports]

No

[@dvera9726]

Do you new to replace the spark plug wires when changing spark plugs?

[@TWAMotorsports]

I would

[@jrperalez4161]

I get card board sheets from Sams club when I work under the truck so my clothes won"t get all dirty.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Yeah that works. Not sure I have ever seen a clean peice of cardboard

[@jrperalez4161]

The ones between the tissue paper, paper towels and also water bottles. I have a 03 GMC v6 we’re installing a V8 here pretty soon! Like the way you lowered it!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you

[@carlitosaguirre7347]

What % tint nice truck sir

[@TWAMotorsports]

5% everything, 35% Windshield

[@stayonit8026]

I'm working on a 05 GMC Sierra 4.3 and the fuel filter is nowhere to be found unless it only in the tank?

[@TWAMotorsports]

The 2004 up don't ha e serviceable filters

[@jond4810]

Hey Travis, what do you think about oil additives like Lucas oil stabilizer?

[@TWAMotorsports]

I like them and have used Lucas in older stuff

[@jacintorosas3195]

Have you had any fuel problems….? Relay ,ground wires, .. I have the same engine…. Can’t find any good videos on this engine…. Hello my name is Jacinto…. Can u help me….

[@TWAMotorsports]

I haven't had any issues

[@horacioestrada3213]

Hi there, Great Video! I have a 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 4.8. it has 74000 miles. I bought in 2004, never done nothing major except for an oil change, filter change and some other fluids as well as the serpentine belt, question for you and hopefully you can answer my question. I have been asking when to do a major tune-up and some mechanics said 100000 K and others 150000k , do you know when is the perfect milage to do a major tune-up on my GMC Sierra? FYI since I bought it have no issues yet, Thank you in advance and I really like your video!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I like a 100k mile service unless its running rough before.

[@horacioestrada3213]

@@TWAMotorsports Thank you o much!! and keep up with awesome videos!!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I'm sure going to try

[@viivcreations9161]

my fuel filter in my 2004 2500 is not in that location, is it inside the gas tank?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Yes. Some are.

[@Jose-fu8cv]

Does anyone know what iridum spark plugs fit my 04 Silverado 1500

[@TWAMotorsports]

Go put in year, make, model, engine in rockauto website

[@jasonschell9860]

It was not a waste. Fram is junk. Wix is the way to go if not AC delco.

[@TWAMotorsports]

I'm not a fram guy

[@edjo3430]

In replacing the fuel filter, should I worry about air in fuel line? If so, what's the solution?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Not at all.

[@LegendaryLooter]

I cannot find a distributor cap or rotor on my Silverado 2003, I am thinking that there isn't one. does anybody know? its definitely not where they normally are if I do have one lol

[@TWAMotorsports]

No if it's a V8 truck it won't have one.

[@Unchained_Bankai]

I was going to ask if you were a blood cuz you always wear red, then you go and put on a blue hat. It must be nice to have the alternator and compressor towards the top of the engine though. Wish f bodies were like that. But that probably means the power steering is in the butt crack. I need a truck

[@TWAMotorsports]

Lol. I try to alternate hats. No gang affiliations here lol. GM must have known those go out first so they made them easy on the trucks to get to.

[@braydenrichardson8034]

Get a 1983 Chevy
