    Fuel Issue (pump?)

    You mean like this. Still a complete pain in the ass regardless. Next time I do it, dropping the tank.

    Fuel Issue (pump?)

    This is just a thought, when my 94 started doing this, a whack on the tank with a hammer would get her to fire up. Fuel pump was dead. Also, if you’re a long bed, I highly suggest dropping the tank. When I removed my bed to do the pump, good god! Would have been easier to do the tank, the long...

    Dually conversion

    well, looking at a 5th wheel, and, I miss my old idi diesel quad cab, long bed dually f350. Plus I love the way a dually looks! Anywho, I looked around online about conversions, it seems that when you put conversion in any sentence, it wants to only pull up 8 to 10 lug conversions. Ugh. That...

    Running warm.

    And I will add, I live in the mountains, she doesn’t overheat up here, flat ground or towing, up hills and down hills, nothing. Down the hill she has trouble on flat ground!

    Well, as of now, she peaked at 210 last night on the highway. I changed the radiator cap and then we headed out of town for dinner. Maybe t-stat and see what happens. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, but he tables available are extremely limited. There really isn’t much tuning in these, compared to my 07 STi. In the first post, what I typed and what should be taken from it, is that the problem is not prescribed to any particular action. It’s running hot is random, it absolutely does...

    Running warm.

    I wish it was my STi, everything from the laptop, so much easier to rework an ecu to eliminate/tune out issues that this obd1 crap. Anywho, it doesn’t increase under load, or decrease when load reduces. If I accelerate, it will drop. Sometimes it gets hot at cruise, sometimes it doesn’t...

    Running warm.

    Radiator fins clean, fan has worked all day, but I don’t think it’s moving enough air at idle. But I’m not sure. I’ve checked everything I should, the inspection stuff as when I’ve had an issue like this before. But, before my 98 legacy gt did this, it was headgaskets. Also, the truck ran great...

    Yes it gets warm. Well, hot. T-stat I’m not sure. Was going to replace today, but the housing that is prescribed for the 455, does not match what I have. Mine is a regular older model housing. The one they say I should have is a tiny little tstat and a housing that shoots straight up. Sent...

    Running warm.

    My bad, forgot to add it to signature. It’s in previous posts, but, it’s a 94 k2500, 4x4. Here’s another tidbit, it doesn’t do this at home. I live in big bear, about 6200 ft elevation, hottest it’s been is 80. Down here in the desert, is where she does it. Ambient temp about 100. Idling at a...

    Running warm.

    So the issue is, she gets warm, about 210-220 climbing grades, ac on or off, doesn’t matter. Throttle position and gear doesn’t matter. Then, on the down hill, back to 190, level ground about 210. Idling, standing still she sits at 220. I’m thinking fan clutch, I can hear the fan sometimes, when...

    Removing house paint

    So, I have been gradually working on getting the house paint the po had put on the truck. My pressure washer is 2k psi. It’s slooooooow. Is there a stripper that I can use in combination with pressure washer that will not hurt/damage my oem paint underneath? As far as I can tell, the paint...

    I was hoping it would have. Damn chevy didn’t put them on the kapopilator circuit so they don’t affect each other. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, a pic of the tire wear would just show that they are low. Now, when I pick up new tires, a pic then and a pic a month down the road could show the wear amount. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hungry axle

    Fuel pump done. Never pulling the bed to do that again. Next time, using a two post lift. Now I can focus on the tires and rear axle. I believe I’m going to pop the cover and see what, if anything, is going on in there. Atleast I get newfluid that way, two birds. Sent from my iPhone using...
