    Oem heated seat element question

    I see you got no response. I have found a set of '98 heated buckets and am considering swapping them into my '97. Did you get your seats fixed and able to retain the heating system?

    '97 suburban to '98 suburban seat electrical

    I have a '97 suburban with leather electric seats. I have found a set of '98 suburban leather electric seats and they are also heated. My question is will the '98 seats plug into my '97? I would think the heated component would require more power than what I am currently wired for but I have...

    So I swapped batteries and the new one wasn't good. Finally got another battery and need to get back on this project. Question though, is the tach and oil pressure gauge suppose to show readings while cranking? Last time I tried it, it seems like neither were showing a reading. Oh and by the...

    What brand fpr and fuel pump for Vortec 7400?

    No luck with starting fluid. I had to swap batteries yesterday. Next on my list is check each plug and wire, check distributor rotor and compression check.

    What brand fpr and fuel pump for Vortec 7400?

    What brand fpr and fuel pump for Vortec 7400?

    Thanks Richard! I used your write up to do the fpr and injector change. That was a huge help!!! I changed my fuel pump and am holding pressure now. So hopefully I will not have to change the fpr again. I put a standard motor products for in it about 4-5 years ago with Lucas injectors from...

    What brand fpr and fuel pump for Vortec 7400?

    As the title states, what brand fuel pressure regulator and fuel pump is recommended for the Vortec 7400 454? I did injectors and fpr from fiveomotorsports about 4 years ago and did fuel pump with AC Delco around the same time. Looking at changing them again and want to make sure I get good...
