2008 Chevrolet Silverado 5.3. What's the amount of time for brake fluid to clear intake manifold?

The braking system and the engine oil lubricant, and coolant system are not connected apart from the vacuum hose. With the engine warm (not hot), gently hose it down and leave it to dry. The smoke is more likely external. If any did get inside the intake manifold, it will soon burn off on a good run.

LTZ. How can I remove radio from center stack?

Remove the pop in bezel. Look at the front of the stereo and see if it has two small holes on each side. If so you will need a stereo release tool to slide it out for the mount bracket.

Where is the catalytic converter located on a 2008 Chevy Silverado?

Why? DIY ? you need a repair manual, your auto parts store may have one, your library many, filepeep.com may have, or try manualslib.com You will need it again if youi want to DIY. Any way, follow the Exhaust piping back to the area usually under the passenger seat, and or driver's seat if there is a dual exhaust. It is in front of the Ehaust muffler. It will have an oxygen sensor in the front with a sensor wire going to the firewall and then to the ECU (brain). Thre may also be the same arrangement on the end of the converter.

1992 Chevy Silverado K1500 No Power!

first buy a DMM meter ,spend $15 and end working blind. the battery and alternator are easy to test and for sure loss of any kind of DC power easy to find using the meter (ASK HOW) K2500 pickup or Suburban???? no told and wiring not the same. no engine told and that too sets wiring. OMG 6 engines 2 diesel. elaborate NO POWER< means head lamps dead? what? and stayed on? means what.? STEP #1 alternator work , battery NEG LUG OFF FIRST or you will blow the 100amp main fuse. doing this ALL WRONG and if a fuseable link, can be hard to find, as others say, not me. never ever connect any main battery backwards or you will blow up very expensive electronics, best I can tell is first failure was the fuse even those kinda hidden fuses called Fuseable links. fuses are first on cars, of head lamps dead and park lamps dead this is first, head lamps work keyon , or off. so is first thing to check with DC POwer loss, (NO POWER"?) if battery is 12vdc then the power is not lost but fuses are blown for sure. head lamps are a safety devices that work even no key in hand. the under hood box has a fuse marked Lighting, if blow HL are dead just below Lighting fuse is battery bus bar fuse. <<< blown? the only hard thing THIS CAR,is the online books stink back in 1992 no digital books then so most cars nobody was willing th scan 500page service manuals. (nor me) so only sparse information exists. (join k2500 real forums? Chevy)\ this truck does have (did new) 4 x fuseable links, 1 for alternator but only that blown kills alternator and runnining engine battery is not 13. to 15vdc so the battery goes dead fast 1/2hour fast. below 13vdc the alternator is dead or fuse link ALT is blown there are more LINKs to blow 3 more. others kill the cab or engine bay fuse boxes dead so all boxes must be check for lost of 12vdc raw DC power. head lamps parking lamps. to top the list and more, check all things DC power, even radiol the list of things dead tells you what fuse box is dead. hope that helps in any way. regards.

E brake stuck on the floor. 1992 silverado

A parking brake (informally known as "emergency brake" or simply "e-brake") is a secondary brake system that uses brake cables to engage the rear brakes rather than the using the hydraulic brake system which actuates both the front and rear brakes. The brake cables are pulled by a ratcheting mechanism inside a cabin which can be a pull lever or a push pedal. In either case the mechanism must be able to release the cable tension. Although rare, a problem in this mechanism could prevent the ratchet from disengaging and in turn keep the parking brake engaged. A much more common problem however is with the cables or brakes themselves. Rust and corrosion that accumulates over time can cause the moving parts to bind and not release from their engaged position. To resolve, the binding parts must be moved back into their original resting position manually and then replaced with non-rusted/corroded parts. In some extreme cases it may be necessary to actually cut through a brake cable in order to release tension and make repairs.
