Re: Best oil/oil filter for 2001 5.3L 180,xxx miles + maintenance recommendations

This is just me, but you probably dont need to drain all the fluid like the book says when you do a flush. The water doesnt get that bad. I finally did a flush on the radiator after 60,000 miles, and i unhooked everything like your supposed to and it really was not as bad as i was expecting. in fact that water and coolant looked pretty good. good to get it out, but i think a simple unhook and fill back up is enough.
