I have been busy with work and school much of the fall into winter but I got some time to do some much needed maintenance on the Yukon over the holidays. I have been daily the lunch box and I knew the salt and snow was coming. The Garage is tapped out on space so the mild weather was welcomed even though I'm the kind of guy that prays for snow.

I had a coolant leak I thought was at the back of the block on the passenger side. I went to the parts store and borrowed the system pressurizer tool for two hundred dollars. I found the leak at the plastic fitting going into the heater core and to the auxiliary heat for the rear. As I returned the tool they gave me all the money back and I got the part from the Dorman section in the aisles 20.00. don't forget to buy the tool for the fittings. I learned THE HARD WAY that the tool exists. I didn't take a photo or a video to post on the tube.
