Techinfo article submissions/updates

If you have an idea or an article already written for the Techinfo section, please PM the idea or article to myself or jr's3800 for consideration or posting.

We invite all new members to browse the Techinfo library. We've amassed an amazing amount of information from the basic to the outlandish.

Keep the articles coming!

I've updated the clear corners article to include the 92-99 procedure from Nytro67.
All years 92-current are now covered in this one article:

Working on another one right now......Techinfo night, I guess. Torque specs for just about everything on the car......

Ok, assembly Torque Specifications is done, posted to Techinfo, Specifications, article #13. This took awhile manually entering:

Torque specifications for body/trim, suspension/steering, transaxle, and engine for 87-99 Bonnevilles.

Assembly Torque Specifications
Disclaimer: As with all automotive procedures, refer to the
proper maintenance manual for correct steps/sequences. This
is meant as a quick-reference guide only. Some bolts require
additional rotation after torque (+70°) or a particular
sequence, or a certain number of steps per torque. Pay close
attentiont to Ft/Lbs vs. In/Lbs. Some values were left out, as
these bolts really require a maintenance manual to do it correctly.
Also note the major differences between years/engines

Formatting is a little goofy, but it's easy to follow.
I learned alot on this one. Many more differences between years/engines than I thought. Some very subtle. Take a browse through the list, and you'll see what I mean:

Running out of things to do while you recover, Will?

Good info, tho, thanks!

That one freaking hurt. I don't think the hand was up to it. Adding wheel lug torque, then going to bed. Gnight all.

Pretty good typing, for being one handed. How'd you learn to do that?

Well Will, If you want even MORE of a headache.....I can send MORE INFO from GM's Database that should keep you busy until you DIE! Which incidently might come about from this info. :lol:

How about a list of OBD codes? Or just the more common ones.
