    Speedometer confusion

    1995 c1500 My speedometer was off by 7 mph consistently from slow speeds up to highway speeds. My fuel gauge bounced had many blown out bulbs. I saw a 120 mph speedometer in the for sale section that was cleaner looking than mine. So I purchased it. My fuel gauge still bounces but in a...

    speedometer inaccuracy

    I don't recall if the speedometer was inaccurate before I swapped the 4l60 for the 4l80. Does the vss from a 95 4l60 give the same type/speed signal as a 96 4l80? Such as number of pulses per mile? I do know the vss looked different from one trans to the other.

    Fuel gauge motor and speedometer

    My 95 c1500 fuel gauge bouncing is getting worse. I think I still have a full cluster from a 96 c2500 suburban. Will the fuel gauge motor swap over? Or better yet the 96 cluster is just in overall better condition. Will it swap? I know the vehicles had different computers and the 95 used a...

    TBI 4l60e to 4l80e

    Finally had a chance to test drive after my 4l80e swap. Worked as I had planned. All gears work including OD. This was on a 95 TBI computer with a 7427 computer. Seems Like it may shift a bit early for my taste but that is probably due to my chip coming from a service box van and I have not...

    swithced power.

    Another auxiliary cooler question

    My 4l80e does have a auxiliary cooler from the factory. It is still in the stock location but I removed the AC coil. So there is a gap between it and the Radiator. Do I need to mount it back against the radiator to make sure the fan pulls air through it?

    4l80e tach signal

    I installed but have not test driven my 4l80e. On a stock 95 TBI system if it came with a 4l80e how would the 4l80e get the tach signal? Such as would the computer get it via the purple wire with white stripe?

    Thermostat size. Not temp.

    I recently put a Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake Manifold 7161 on my 454. What size thermostat do I need for this? I noticed the hole looks larger then the stock manifold and the thermostat just falls to the bottom of the coolant passage. Also the housing bolts dont fit. Maybe these questions...

    Brake pedal height

    On my 95 c1500 2wd my brake pedal is way to hi. The brakes feel fine. It has been this way since I had it. I am not tall and my knee hits the wheel when pulling up to hit the brakes. The brake sits so hi the steering column mount keeps it from going higher. I have stuck my head under there and...

    TBI lines to 3/8npt

    Need to figure out how to go from the stock 95 TBI fuel lines to hoses that end with 3/8NPT for a pressure regulator with return provision. I do not want to cut the hard metal lines. I want to use adapters so I do not have fuel hose blowing off cut metal lines just held on by simple clamps. I...

    Another 4l60e to 4l80e thread 95 TBI

    I had hoped to find this information for a 95 TBI 2wd. Very easy to find this info on newer trucks with LS or newer style computers. But for the old 95 all I find are dead links. So which year 4l80e can I use and what needs to be done to the wiring and computer in this old of truck? Obviously...

    How much has it been lowered?

    I purchased a used 95 short bed regular cab. It was lowered when the previous owner purchased it. Where can I measure to figure out how much it has been lowered? I know I could measure from anywhere to the ground but that does not take into consideration differences in tires. I see the rear...

    O2 sensor wire

    I have a 93 k1500 4x4 4.3 5 speed. I picked it up cheap and trying to get it running better. I was going to change the o2 sensor and noticed the wire had been cut and crimped to a red wire instead of to any kind of factory harness. So I followed the wire and it was just laying on top of the...

    Other then the nv4500 what manual 5 speed 4x4 trans should I replace it with? Because I have a 4500 in my 1 ton and its fine for heavy truck but probably not the best choice for a k1500 v6 4x4 truck.

    93 4x4 nv3500 input shaft bearing?

    Can the input shaft bearing be replaced without splitting the case on a 1993 4x4 nv3500? Strange how common the transmissions are but not much info on the net about working on them.

    Pulsator

    Found this next to my computer while changing the chip for my 454 from my 350. Looks like it would just unplug. Should I leave it alone or take it out. I looked on the net and everything I found about them said they were a device in the tank that you replace with a normal fuel line.
