I was actually mistaken on that part, it does actually have a short extended filler cap, it's hiding under the air intake hose, and it's actually on the driver's side. My roommate and a friend found it while I was still sleeping on the couch, I was a little confused how my roommate explained the location to me, until I went downstairs to check for myself. Its definitely in an awkward to get to spot, but we got funnels, and it needed about 3/4 of a quart, topped off now. ๐
I wasn't talking about the power steering cap in the pic, I thought it was behind that closer to the firewall. In the drivers side like you said. Between the engine and the brake booster.
Yep, ultimately that's exactly where I found it. I guess part of the confusion came from the video I found. Sure, dude's video covered everything fairly well, but I think he said the one he was working on was a 98, we got a 96, so I guess GMC shuffled some parts around between those years. ๐คท
At least we found it though ๐
