Looking for a picture of the wiring coming from the radio/Ac and heater unit in the dash...
These trucks vary quite a bit over the years, so year/model/any other info is always helpful in order to help you. Not sure a picture of the actual wiring will help, but diagrams should. They're in the factory service manuals, which can be found for free download here ->...- someotherguy

Aluminum rims corroding, leaking air, help needed
It didn't work worth a damn in my tiny air compressor tires. :( What an irony, my air compressor tires are always going flat. At least I've got a compressor to air 'em up with. Richard- someotherguy

Talk me into, or out of, it...
They got "busy" ... I reminded them I dropped it off THREE WEEKS AGO. I knew I shouldn't have trusted it when it initially got back to me so quickly. I'm worried we'll be in full-blown Summer before I'm driving it again and the next delay will be me fixing the A/C. Richard- someotherguy

Well then without more info we're at kind of a loss here for what you mean by "doesn't match" Richard- someotherguy

Glass park lights???
Correct- the 88-93 park lights have a dull silver surround, pretty much looks gray. It's a metal ring affixed to the plastic lens/housing. 94-98 have a different lens/housing where the surround is part of the lens and is painted black. Richard- someotherguy

Their mention of "cleans up with water" is telling, IMO. Richard- someotherguy

Talk me into, or out of, it...
The temptation to patch it up and slap it back together is almost overwhelming. Can't have it be the nicest thing on a beat-up old truck, ya know? Richard- someotherguy

The Official Vortec 454 Info thread
That gauge isn't gonna work for you. You'll need one with a schrader valve fitting as Schurkey mentioned. Unless you happen to have a hose you can thread into that block that has a schrader valve. Here's what works, just threads right onto the test port. Richard- someotherguy

93 5.7 cat delete o2 sensor light
Point to the last several posts in this thread is an OBD I system doesn't have a post-cat O2 sensor to determine if the catalyst is doing its job; that's the one that will set the code if you don't have a cat, or your cat is bad. The code you might get from a bad pre-cat O2 would be if the O2...- someotherguy

Tearing the spare dash down to get ready to do some repairs to it, then clean, prep, and paint. And for those of you that haven't torn one down to this level (first 88-94 style that I have) - the L shaped trim pieces as well as the far right dash vent are in vinyl surrounds. They're kind...- someotherguy

Bought a used dash...not sure I'm gonna use it.
So I'm about to go out in the garage and start stripping the cut-up harness and other bad pieces off the dash so I can make progress on repairing and making it ready for paint. Wanting to get the products on the way - opinions on SEM vs. Colorbond vs. Duplicolor? And in the product of choice...- someotherguy

Fuel Quality!
Kinda surprised to hear that. I wonder what the difference is between today and the before-times when we used to think fuel was good. It seems like when I was a kid (which was forever ago) the gas in the multiple 5 gallon jerry cans in our old lawnmower shed lasted years and years. Of course...- someotherguy
