    cant find messages

    I went to conversations and it's empty. I'm looking at this page and under my avatar it displays "Messages:38", which is one more since last time. But then I look at Jkeaton's and it's over a thousand, so I'm gonna assume this number I've been looking at is total messages received since sign-up...

    cant find messages

    when I view my profile there is a box which states I have a certain amount of messages yet when I click on inbox it states it's empty. Am I looking in the wrong place? Yesterday I had 36 messages supposedly, and now today after starting a thread yesterday I have a anther totaling 37 so evidently...

    92 K1500 OFFROAD/Commuter

    So far I think the first thing I need to do is find a 2003 4x4 I can cannibalize for parts. If I happen to get a 2WD at a price I can't resist then I'll use the 700R4 in the truck now. That would probably be the simplest way despite the kickdown cable mod it requires, (flywheel spacer too), but...

    92 K1500 OFFROAD/Commuter

    Hiya, my name is Brian and I've been lurking here for a few years. I have a 92 K1500 WT that I bought maybe 9 years ago that I've babied. It has just been around for when I need to haul something or move someone. I don't take it out in the winter if I dont have to because it's in such great...

    How To: Install a Remote Start in your GMT400 (Detailed!)

    BTW I have a 1992 K1500, and so far the install has been great. I didn't hook up the tach by the computer, I used the pigtail at the coil. Simple spade connector hookup.

    How To: Install a Remote Start in your GMT400 (Detailed!)

    I'm wrapping up an install of a Crimestopper and I'm wondering if the dome light feature can be utilized even though there is no dome activation circuit on our trucks? I notice if I ran the dome light relay circuit to the dome light that the 'door switch' wire and the 'dome light activation'...

    vacuum actuator convert to electric??

    it seems the only info on vacuum units is on S-10's which is a different system(pushbutton) with a cable. I don't have z cable. Must be this isn't so common on half ton 4X4's. If I could only get the wiring diagram for the vacuum system and compare that to the newer driven electric system maybe...

    vacuum actuator convert to electric??

    So it has been awhile since I had too fiddle with the actuator on my front axle but I always remembered it being vacuum. Well while researching how to fix it, I got caught up in upgrading the thermal type to the electric and I went out and ordered the actuator and harness to make that happen. I...

    Intake fastener size/availabilty

    thanks. I think the studs just make it easier to mount the brackets for things. thanks again

    Intake fastener size/availabilty

    Hoping for a quick answer to a relatively simple question. I'm in the middle of changing head and intake gaskets on my 92 TBI (Non-Vortec) 5.7L SBC. It has just over 200K miles and when I was removing the intake bolts/nuts, the two that thread into the drivers side head at either end snapped...

    Truck stalls when hot

    I'm glad you asked because I hate leaving threads unfinished. Not to mention I had totally forgot I had this problem and had to read back through to try to remember what happened. The great thing was it was a crazy fix. Something told me to tear into my glove box and have a look at my...

    The Stupid Engine Questions Thread

    Last time I rebuilt an engine was in the 90's; is it still cheaper to rebuild or have the crate engines made that obsolete? I just want a replacement for my stock 5.7TBI. Also what would be the correct part# for a crate for a '92 K1500 W/T? When the start talking about rear seals I get a little...

    need advice on exhaust redo

    Well I'm gonna put a crate engine in and redo the suspension so I think I should have it for a good long time. Body isn't bad either. I don't really drive it in the winter, but I'd like too. Just can't put it through that salt. It's pretty much been a delivery truck for when I go to the hardware...

    need advice on exhaust redo

    good advice thank you. I live on the west side of michigan so I get a ton of salt too. Just not sure this old girl is worth SS though. Is there any reason why I might want to run Cats. No laws about having them here. Seems it would be better with out.
