The torque specifications for the inner joint bolts that connect the front axle to the differential on a 2004 Chevrolet 2500 4x4 may vary slightly depending on the specific model and components used. However, I can provide you with some general torque guidelines. Please note that it's essential to consult your vehicle's service manual or contact a qualified mechanic for the exact torque specifications, as they can vary depending on factors like the specific front axle design and any aftermarket modifications. Here's a rough estimate:

• Inner Joint to Differential Housing Bolts: Typically, the torque specification for these bolts is in the range of 85-100 lb-ft (115-135 Nm). However, it's crucial to verify the exact torque value from your vehicle's service manual.

Always use a reliable torque wrench to ensure that the specified torque is applied accurately, and follow proper tightening sequences and procedures as outlined in the service manual to prevent over-tightening or under-tightening, which can lead to problems with the front axle and differential.

The starter is located on the passenger side where the engine mates with the transmission. It's held on by two bolts and there are wire harness that need to be disconnected and are live so you need to disconnect the battery ground first. Good luck and hope this helps. Keep me posted if you need instructions to removing the starter or you can log on to Auto Zone and register free of charge and you can get a print out on how to get the job done with common tools. Be safe friend.

The cigarette lighter fuse for a Chevrolet City Express LT is located in the Engine Compartment Fuse Box. The location of the fuse box varies depending on the year of the vehicle. For instance, in 2003-2007 models, the cigar lighter (power outlet) fuses are numbered 29 (Auxiliary Power Outlets) and 30 (Cigarette Lighter). In 2008-2009 models, they are numbered 33 (Auxiliary Power Outlet) and 38 (Cigarette Lighter). In 2010-2022 models, they are numbered 25 (Auxiliary Power Outlet) and 73 (Cigarette Lighter).

This may be an issue that’s easily solved but requires a diagnostic scanner that’s more advanced than most cheaper models like found at homes or most auto parts store chains. Ask friends/family who the most knowledgeable/reasonable mechanic that they know is- preferably one with training and dealership/high end shop experience- they’ll be more likely to have the better diagnostic equipment. If I took the context of the question wrong and you mean the time it takes for the evaporation system to cycle- that varies by vehicle but usually isn’t a long time- call your local dealer depending on the manufacturer of the vehicle and ask them- ask for the parts department, also try service if they don’t help. Many will allow you to ask a technician a question if you ask the right way...good luck

Did you test the exhaust back pressure ? 1 to 1/2 pounds are normal readings of the pressure. Could be clogged catalytic converter need an exhaust backpressure test. Valves intermittent valve problem, broken rocker, push rod. Thanks MEGABUCK

I have not had one person that is happy with the cobalt. Everyone I have known that has one has traded it in before all the other problems occured. . You will have to test areas with water and see if it causes a leak. Also the box has a vent hose that could become clogged. This will also cause the AC condensation to overflow. Run the AC for awhile and see if you get drainage.. If not its clogged

On left hand side of the steering wheel you have a manual light switch that controls the dash lights for dim and brighter by turning the switch right or left, or you will have a wheel like switch next to it which could be the control that goes up to brighten and down to dim. Either type is a rheostat type switch, to lower the lights it decreases the current to brighten the lights the current is increased. if the contacts are worn or dirty it could interfere with the current control. Sometimes you can just go from left to right or up and down and clean the contacts to work. Other wise it time to replace the switch

CHEVY S-10 TAIL LIGHTS PROBLEM RESOLVED...It seems Chevy engineered a ground shorting clip located under the left rear bumper area. It looks like a connector for trailer wiring harness, but in actuallity is a metal shorting clip which ties 5 wires together. They are all the ground wires for the tail lights. Then one single small wire runs to ground completeing the circuit. Problem is that this one wire is not tough enough to be a strain relief for the grounding plug and over time the ground wire wears, leaving intermittent lighting problems. FIX IS TO SPLICE THE GROUND WIRE INTO ONE OF THE FIVE OTHER WIRES AND USE PLASTIC TY WRAP FOR STRAIN RELIEF. This fixes no tail lights, intermittent rear signals, and other significant problems. I just got done making this same repair on a 2000 s-10 and everything works fine. Since it is the strain on the single ground wire connected to the connector that leads to failure, it is best to tie a new ground or clip the ground wire coming out of the plug and resplice it into one of the other five wires. Does not matter which one since electrically it makes no difference; they are all gound wires. BUT only one wire completes the connection and that is the problem. Really good engineering Chevy! The location is under left rear of bed in wiring harness right before the split. The connector is blue or green. Take the cover off to see the metal shorting clip. Also note the ground wire coming out of the plug/connector and runs about 8 inches to frame. If this is not hooked up you will have tail light issues.

Our professional auto technician provides a good answer. Jeff Armer Oct 02, 2023 You could try turning the key on an off a few times (without trying to start it ) to pressure up the fuel lines. There is a check valve in fuel pump module inside the fuel tank that is suppose to keep fuel in the lines an fuel injector rail. It's probably bad.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. Quite simply you can't do it at home because you don't have the wheel alignment equipment. There doesn't seem to be anywhere on the lower control arm that has adjustments, so just change it over and do the wheel alignment when you get paid to make sure it is correct. https://www.google.com/search?q=Chevrolet+malibu+lower+control+arm ..
