Trying to bleed my cooling system and I bought one of those funnels that goes on rad cap but it was junk and just leaked everywhere the “Chevrolet” cap didn’t fit well.
So I’ve been trying to just bleed it with the rad cap off, truck running, heat on high and blower on high, revving it up...
Okay my drums are adjusted well because I just did cylinders shoes and hardware. My parking brake cable needs to be replaced. But you’re saying the booster isn’t the culprit
88 k1500 5.7 and had this truck for a year never had a vehicle with vacuum boosted brakes so I don’t know.
Basically my brakes have half of the pedals travel applying no brakes until the pedal is halfway down then I can feel the pedal actually applying the brakes.
The brakes work ****** to...
Truck is getting hot sometimes but I’ve done all kinds of cooling repairs and the truck runs good besides idling at a stop light on a hot day or going up my steep hill to my house.
I’ve never heard my fan kick on which could be because they’re quiet I don’t know. But I’ve driven other vehicles...
I’ve just heard so many things from different folks, read things on this forum and Reddit but I just want to raise the question again.
I have an 88 k1500 350 with 150k on it. I’m not a great mechanic but to me it is about as good as you’d expect an engine to be in a 30+ year old truck with...

Okay I have a 700r4 then because I have a tv cable and it broke a while back and many folks told me how close I was to blowing the trans. It was shifting fine for a while then the 1-2 shift was bad so I did some lookin and found the cable broke off the throttle linkage.
So neither trans is...
88 k1500 5.7 with D overdrive 1 and 2. Doesn’t look like stock trans or torque converter given how rusty all other parts are. How do I know if it’s a 4l60e or 700r4 and which one do I hope I have? Meaning which one is better and why
88 k1500 5.7 with so many holes in my exhaust system from the y pipe down stream that I’m thinking of putting a new system on it.
My truck isn’t nice but the 350 can still sound decent without a bunch of leaks. So I’m looking for a cheapo system for a not great truck just to make it sound a...
So did a rwal delete on my 88 k1500 5.7. Getting ready to bleed my brakes and master cylinder (because it ran dry due to my rear lines bursting through during last bleed) and I’m wondering if I need to bleed the proptioning valve as well or will that be bled as the rear lines are bled?
I’ve...
