    Coolant temp sensor - what is a good replacement?

    Not sure why you guys are shopping for car parts on Amazon. Rockauto has the best prices and selection. They just about never get parts wrong if you know your year make and model. GM Genuine 213928 AC Delco 1551107 I like Standard sensors. Can’t beat that three-year warranty and all their...

    No Reverse lights

    On my 98 auto 4x4 the switch under the dash with the green wire is NOT for the backup lights. Instead, the neutral safety switch/backup light switch is on the drivers side of the transmission, near the driveshaft. In any case for me the problem was in the tee connection to the trailer wiring. It...

    TPS percentage wobbling

    I hooked up a scan tool today and noticed that, at idle, the TPS percentage wobbles between 0% and 0.4%. I replaced the TPS, with no change. Has anyone else experienced this? I heard someone else say the connector might need to be replaced. What do you all think?

    Is this an oil pressure stepper motor issue?

    Ok, looks like it will take care of a flicker: https://www.gmt400.com/threads/instrument-cluster-question.44675/page-3 I’m wondering whether what I have is a flicker or whether it’s supposed to move up and down that quick. Like maybe it’s supposed to move more like a coolant gauge?

    Is this an oil pressure stepper motor issue?

    I’m wondering whether replacing the stepper motor behind the oil pressure gauge will smooth it out.

    Fuel pump relay connections

    I know I have voltage on the signal side and I know the pump runs fine when jumping it and I know I have good fuel pressure. I tested the relay and couldn’t get it to not work So … I’m thinking it’s a bad connection.

    Fuel pump relay connections

    Pump is fine. Engine is acting on backup signal from oil pressure sender. It’s going to be either the connection or the relay. My money is on the connection. If anyone can help me determine the right replacement pin to get that would be helpful.

    Fuel pump relay connections

    I think it is. I had trouble starting it until I wiggled the relay. I’ve tested the relay and it tested fine. I think it might be this pin but it’s hard to tell: https://www.clipsandfasteners.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=A14883&Search.x=10&Search.y=9

    Fuel pump relay connections

    Today I looked at the fuse box closer and saw that it’s held in place by three bolts accessible from the wheel well. I removed these and was able to remove the fuse box support. Then, after some squinting and head-scratching, I figured out how to press the plastic tabs and detach the bottom of...
