How many quarts of oil does a 2004 Hummer H2 take?

How many quarts of oil does a 2004 Hummer H2 take?

Engine lubricant oil capacity: 5.7 liter / 6 U.S. qt / 5 imp. qt
Engine coolant capacity: 15.9 liter / 16.8 U.S. qt / 14 imp. qt
Fuel tank capacity: 121 liter / 32 U.S. gal / 26.6 imp. gal

What should I do before installing a tube plug?

Before installing the plug, the tube end or tube sheet hole must be as clean as possible. Remove any oil, grease, or other lubricants that could affect the sealing surface of the plugs. Check for scratches that run from the inside of the tube sheet to the outside of the tube sheet. These scratches can result in a leak path after plugging.

What causes oil to collect on spark plugs?

A closer observation of piston rings will reveal compression rings at the top and bottom. As the piston moves up and down along the wall, these rings will collect oil. The rings prevent the oil beneath the pistons from reaching the combustion chambers. However, the rings wear out, and oil finds its way to the spark plugs.

How do you remove a tapered tube plug?

Remove the tapered plug from the tube by twisting the plug to break the mechanical bond. Vise grips or a pipe wrench should be used. If the plugs do not have enough length sticking out to secure a grip, the plug must be drilled out. Drilling The entire tapered tube plug may be drilled out.

Why do you use two piece tube plugs?

The amount of heat produced while welding the tube plug can distort the tube sheet, causing adjacent tube joints to leak once the vessel is back on-line. Two-piece tube plugs are also used in low-pressure vessels, however, they provide a more secure sealing zone than one-piece tube plugs.

What to do if your spark plug is covered in oil?

If your whole spark plug is covered in oil, you should definitely replace the valve cover gasket and the O-rings around the spark plugs.

Why are the plugs tapered on a gas cylinder?

Often used on gas cylinders, these plugs cinch and lock tightly around valve heads to block the ports— they must be cut off making it clear if the cylinder has been tampered with. The plugs are tapered to fit a range of hole diameters.

What kind of plugs are used on SAE fittings?

Designed to fit into 37° flared connections such as those found on JIC and SAE fittings, these plugs protect internally threaded connections from contaminants during fabrication and storage. Protect internally threaded NPT connections from contaminants during fabrication and storage.

What do you use to plug a leak in a heat exchanger?

Pipe is typically rigid. Plug leaky internal tubes in heat exchangers with these two-piece ring and pin sets. Often used when testing systems for leaks, these plugs expand against the inside of pipes to create a pressure-resistant seal. A bubble -tight seal prevents leakage to securely contain air and inert gas under normal pressure conditions.
