That's a joke right? Of course not.
Doc
Doc, Can I take it that your answer means no? Or does it mean that you don't know what a 454 Vortex engine inside of a 1997 Chevy Suburban looks like?
Jabs
Nope, never seen one or worked on one. In fact, I don't have the snowballest clue in hell what I'm talking about with regards to everything automotive.
Anyhow smartass, you may or may not have a cover that makes access to the cap difficult. This is NOT the intake manifold or even the upper intake plenum, but rather just a plain old piece of plastic designed to keep that area clean and dry. Remove the cover and the cap comes off with removal of two screws holding it to the distributor.
Doc
Doc, Thanks for the info about the two screws........ if only I could just find out how to get to them two screws.
Jabs
You're either a troll or you're really a newbie to auto mechanics! If there is a cover over the cap, remove the cover and then you'll be able to get the screws. If there is no cover, it should come right up.
You'll need a step ladder or something to stand on to get high enough.
Doc

OK Doc, I'm convinced you have never seen a 454 Vortex engine inside of a 1997 Chevy Suburban. Thanks for your help just the same.
Jabs
How hard can it be to find a distributor cap. You put gas or diesel in that thing. Besides, I think your problem is in the key switch...it's below the steering wheel.
Probably not. Chevy doesn't make "Vortex" engines. H
