    HELP ME PLEASE

    I'm gonna make a long story short. I locked up the engine in my 97 k1500. It has a 350 Vortec in it. I replaced the engine. In the process broke 2 bolts on driver side exhaust manifold connector where it plugs into the pipe. SO I have an exhaust leak. I believe this is causing my engine to rev...

    Rough Idle

    Also could it be a vacuum leak? If so where do all the hoses run? It has been a while since I took them off and everything. I doubt this matters, but while taking the drivers side manifold off two of the bolts broke. They were in there good, so now I have an exhaust leak. Doubt the two are...

    Rough Idle

    I just replaced my engine due to the previous one being locked up. I did all the work myself and started it up yesterday. Now it has a rough idle and won't stay running unless you keep your foot on the gas pedal. I was told it was a timing issue. How do I correct this? This is my first solo...

    Four-Corner Mod w/ Red Leds

    I'm concerned that the led bulbs won't be as bright as the incandescent 194s.... Unless I bought the expensive ones with multiple diodes on them. Will they be bright enough if I got the ones with say 5 diodes?

    Cab Utility Lights on 1500

    I want to install utility lights on top of my cab like the duallys and 2500s have. However, I want to get some clear ones and put red LEDs in them. How would I wire these up and will I need resistors for the LEDs? Also, where can I find some clear led cab lights I can't find any to fit our trucks.

    Truck Won't Start

    I do not want to try to turn it with a breaker bar because breaking the bolt on the harmonic balancer would be a b***h to fix. Question: do i have to take all the plugs out or just 1? It wouldnt be a big deal to take them all out especially on a 350 but im just curious

    Pickup just quit

    I discovered that the factory cables are the cause of my past electrical issues. Take a knife and cut the plastic around the terminals off. On the cable that runs to the fuse box there is a lead biscuit in it that you need. Cut down to the square part of the terminals where the round part ends...

    Engine Overhaul

    The budget is so tight because I bought the truck and a month later it was knocking. Then I replaced engine with a used one. It goes out maybe 3 months later. I dont want to put the time and money into a used engine if its just gonna go out a few months later.
