    AC Blend door spline/tab broken

    I just replaced my blend door actuator because I thought it was broken but it seems to be the tab that it attaches to the white tab it turns with two legs. I cant find the part number for it. I assume its the door. The new actuator works but the spline is not being turned. Have yall seen this...

Now that I type this I am remembering that we drove 3 to nashville at the first of the year and got 19.2 mpg and we went back again last week and got 16.5 mpg so something has clearly changed I am not...

    Gassy smell at idle

    I am pretty certain fuel pressure is good. I had a local mechanic help with the fuel pump. He checked all the fuel lines and we replaced the fuel filter again when we replaced the fuel pump just in case. The smell is coming from the exhaust. I never thought about the catalytic converters going...

    Gassy smell at idle

    Brand new knock sensor and wire and connector. It wasnt a GM brand one though. It wasnt the cheapest knock sensor either but I have read non GM ones suck. I am not sure about the fuel cap. I didnt think it would make a difference on older vehicles

    Gassy smell at idle

    I have a 1993 5.7 and I have noticed that lately at idle and sitting at lights the smell of fuel has been getting stronger. We recently drove from Alabama to Montreal and Boston and back to Alabama for vacation over a week and right when we got back into Alabama my fuel pump started going out...

    Time to replace my compressor

    Just cleaned the evaporator core. And did one last check since its about 82º and 75% humidity. I would say its cleaner than I thought. I took some purple power and a soft rag and the hose on low and got it as good as I could without tearing it up or puncturing it. Static pressure is about 96...

    Time to replace my compressor

    what temps are you getting? I still need to clean the evap core because the accumulator gets so cold to the touch so I know the freon going through the evap is nice and cold

    Time to replace my compressor

    Okay I have had enough time to give an update. Went to the beach and the heat and humidity was crazy. We don’t live far from the beach and it’s been 95% humidity here but that felt like a lot more there. I bought some manifold gauges from harbor freight yesterday because I could hear the...

    What is this part?? I was replacing my broken windshield wiper switch

    I am not sure if the tab even goes to this. I have been sitting here watching youtube videos and this seems right? I don’t want to put it all back together and it not actually be part of this

    What is this part?? I was replacing my broken windshield wiper switch

    I was replacing my windshield wiper switch and the turn signal switch and when I was putting this back in the little metal tab fell in my lap. I have no idea what it is and where is goes. Everything else I know. Where does the metal tab go? 1993 gmc sierra c1500
