On this day in history, I removed the bed from a Silverado to swap out the fuel pump for the first time. I’ve probably pulled a thousand tanks on this model. Few can do it as fast as I can. In retrospect, it’s easier to remove the bed—not a lot easier, because the bumper really should be removed, but definitely easier.

I'm so sick of Chinese parts. This brand new mount from O'Reilly's is already shot to hell. Getting them in and out of the Nissan Rogue isn't fun either. It lasted about a month before the first complaint, and within a month they said it was getting worse. We need American-made parts built by people who take pride in workmanship.

I have done many LS swaps. It is by far the most popular upgrade I do. Demand for LS engines in old classics is high, finding someone to do it right and finish the job is difficult. I have finished several LS swaps that others gave up on. The Chevy pickup was one of them. The Blazer and the Pontiac are all me.

For anyone experienced enough to open up a tilt column on a Box Chevy to tighten the four bolts buried in the chaos, you know this is one of the tougher jobs around. There's a lot to pay attention to if you expect to successfully put it back together. It isn’t rocket science.

What you are looking at is a 2005 GMC Canyon that came in for an AC issue. Right away I found the Schrader valve leaking Freon. I evacuated the system to replace both high and low side Schrader valves and came to find out it was full of refrigerant at 0.73 kilograms, which is full to specifications. The last shop told the owner the system was junk and needed everything replaced: compressor, condenser, and all. Want to know what the problem was? They unplugged the compressor clutch and said the system was cooked. I plugged the compressor back in, replaced the Schrader valves, evacuated and refilled it. It blows ice cold, and the low side was running at 30 psi on a 90-degree day. There are some very shady motherfuckers in Vegas, that’s what I have to say about that.
