    idles/runs super rough, no power.. fuel pump?

    I'm fine for troubleshooting, i'm just not sure what to check for or what the followup questions are. Like if I have low fuel pressure, is there likely to be another (easier to fix or check) cause that could have happened out of the blue when it was running just fine literally an hour before...

    idles/runs super rough, no power.. fuel pump?

    So I have a 1991 (i think its a 1991, 1990? i always mix it up) K1500 4x4 Silverado with a 350tbi, automatic, and 23,000 miles on it. (yes 23, not 123 or 223) Sees very little use normally but last fall just as I was starting college it went from running great to insta-crap. Couldn't barely...

    Am I crazy for attempting this??

    A different truck. :D How often and where? Moving once is different than hauling the rockies every weekend. I didn't read this whole thread but commented on the other guy in the forum wanting to pull a few things I thought useful. I think your transmission will be highly stressed built or...

    Heavy Towing questions

    The type of RV could affect things too, unless youre decided you might look into something like an Airstream if you don't need slideouts. For their length they are not only very light (relatively speaking) but also very stable in sidewinds, very stable weightwise (in general even in extreme...

    High speed stability? (both 2wd and 4wd)

    Being as i'm not used to the idea of driving pickups and such at very fast speeds, but have seen people with some very fast timeslips on occasion reaching into the triple digits even if not for very long, I was curious if there were any rules of thumb, commentary, or knowledge on how these...

    Quadrasteer swap from 2002-2005 to earlier GMT400??

    Big Crazy Idea #2 i'm wondering (was either the IRS or the Quadrasteer which I thought would be extra trick) and seeking opinions on (possibly from the same people!) - has anyone ever heard of or considered trying to swap the 4 wheel steering setups that GM used in the 2002-2005 Tahoe/ Suburban...

    IRS Swap from 2003 Expedition?

    Thanks for the suggestions. :) My fab skills are not YET up to par - but i'm hoping to learn - and one of the things I was hoping to learn on was an application like this. Both older explorers and suburbans are fairly affordable now, so tinkering around and trying to make it work is not an...

    IRS Swap from 2003 Expedition?

    Well I already have a 1991 K1500 with about 20,000 miles on it that spent most of it's life garaged not even seeing rain or snow. (though the first few years that it did still affected it) Though I don't think that will be my project truck, i'm more curious about putting it on a Suburban. I'm...

    IRS Swap from 2003 Expedition?

    Hello, this is my first post instead of an intro post but I wanted to populate my intro post with pictures of the truck I already have and don't have that figured out yet. :) I joined this group to find people specializing in my favorite pickup chassis including to speculate on or consider...
