You are the man! If I lived somewhere near you, I would pay you to do the same things for me and be my Hummer mechanic. I can't seem to find anyone anywhere who knows what they are doing when it comes to Hummers. Sad but true.

LOL! I'm not a mechanic. I'm in construction and I got a fleet of 5 vehicles and 2 trailers, if I wouldn't do the work myself I'll be working just to keep the trucks on the road! "Necessity is the mother of all invention"

One of the last parts of the schedule overhaul, injectors!


The worst tool that I've ever owned!








I ended up doing it with a bent screwdriver.


Do not split that rail!!!

wow...what a great rebuild thread. its a great feeling when you fix old worn out parts. the creidit card bill hurts, but its a great feeling when old rusted worn down parts get tossed out. hopefully i wont have to do this to my hummer for a while, but im in the stages of doing some of these upgrades to my silverado 2500 with 264K on it.

I heard about the power washer trick but the temp. in NJ is to low for that, so I'm doing in the HARD way scalpel and cutters.
