02 I-6 oil filter type and radiator cap?
I just bought the 02 XL with a 4.2 I-6 and in the owners manual I can only find the specs for the 6.6 8 cyl, P58 and 7 quarts of oil.
What oil filter does the 4.2 6 take? and how many quarts of oil does it take with filter changed? Here is my stupid question for the day. When I try and remove the radiator cap it goes loose like it is coming off then re-tightens up, I was scared to keep twisting as I didn't want to break something. Whats the trick? |

7 qts, the GM filter is P-61. Keep turning it and lift up at the same time, cold of course. Funny there is no 8 cyl. Envoy in 2002, sounds like the wrong year book?

Re: 02 I-6 oil filter type and radiator cap?
May be a late owner's manual in contemplation of the 2003, as there is no listing for a 8 cylinder 2002 Envoy. But you have your info either way.

Re: 02 I-6 oil filter type and radiator cap?
It was my bad reading that read into 6.6L as a engine size instead of oil amounts. It is not 6.6 V-8 it meant 6.6L of oil = 7 qts. My bad on learning this vehicle.
Thanks for making me go re read it again. |

Thought so, just didn't want to insult you, you're on your way.

Dont worry about insulting me, I would rather learn the vehicle and have the right info, then to understand what I read wrong. Whats the difference in PF-58 and the P-61 oil filters? The owners book shows a 58 and online parts order shows a 61 as you stated. |

61 is an updated version, no more 58's, the rad cap is a pita just keep turn it counter clockwise and pull up at the same time, it is a tight fit.

Re: 02 I-6 oil filter type and radiator cap?
I've got an '03 XL 4wd and compared to the '96 Jimmy 4x4 I had, the Envoy floats alot more. The suspension is very soft. But the wife likes it and I don't drive it, so I'm fine. Has decent pep though for a V6...actaully has more HP than the Jimmy's V6...just taller & heavier. Good truck though.
