Swims350
I'm Awesome
Ok first off this is for my 88 k1500 it has a th350 trans. yes it's a th350 I put it in myself, been having a leak, seems to be coming from the side cover on the pass. side, the round cover. I aint sure what it's called but I think it's held on with a snap ring. I wiped the trans clean, started it up and it dripped off there and was wet right under it. How do I fix it? Mainly I need to know it's name so I can look for a gasket for it. Or can I pull it, blue rtv it and reinstall?
Now my up top temp stall....
Ok first off it's a brand new motor, completely rebuilt, new distributor, new cap, rotor, wires(accel), plugs, coil, cam and timing set, as well as basically everything else inside.
Ok I removed the AIR pump, and blocked the tubes going into the manifolds (have headers now) the thing appears to be good to maybe lean on the plugs, new o2 sensor as well. I could never get it to run at zero degrees timing what it calls for, it would run, as far as start and rev fine, but driving it would not run over 40 mph and the motor wasn't revved up. The pedal was to the floor and it wasn't going anywhere, I advance the dist. and it runs great. it has tons of power runs great, can run 75 and climb hills on the highway like nothing. No spark knock or anything.
Thing is, it's always had this thing where when it gets up to temp that when you have it in gear it idles very low. and when turning from a dead stop or going from park to in gear, or reverse to drive or vice versa, it'll die. it'll smell funny like it ran out of gas or really old gas, it won't restart right away, it'll crank normal and try to but won't, then it'll crank slow, like it's dragging. You'll have to let it sit for a minute or two and it'll fire back up and run fine.
It also has this miss or cough out the exhaust, just a lil one, on idle, when it's cold and when up to temp. when it's up to temp. it's rough, truck kinda shakes or rocks. It'll only do it a lil bit like cough, then maybe a minute or so 30 seconds whatever cough again, sometimes it's close together, but it's not constant, and never misses once you touch the gas, anytime.
I was told that was a lean pop, caused by me advancing the timing. Now yesterday it done the stall, and I tried to advance the timing more while it was hot, shut it down, unhooked the timing connector, refire, advance, shut down, plug in, refire, it misses more, and right together or coughs alot, throw it in gear, imediately dies. So I backed the timing off some, haven't drove it to see if it lost power, but it starts and everything fine, and it does still cough a lil, maybe less then before, and it doesn't try to die going from gear to gear ot turning, at least not sitting still in the yard.
Now I was told to unplug the collant temp sensor and it would richen it up and maybe stop this, well I tried that, when I have the truck off and it unplugged, it won't start. AT ALL, so I plug it back in and it's really hard to start, have to hit the pedal when it trys, and feather it, when it does start it puffs gas smoke out, and acts like it flooded. Thing is, is that normal? Should it do that? or is the temp sensor bad? Could it be another sensor bad? What should I do or try to maybe see if I can get it to run as it should at zero, or at least to not stall on me if it still does? I think the timing may work, but if I lost power I'll want it back LOL.
Fuel pressure is good, haven't checked it when it's up to temp though, but normally it's 12-13 psi. on start and idle. Checked at the fuel filter.
