    TBI injectors

    Pretty sure the injectors are going bad in my '94 5.7. Looking to see where I can get some new/reman injectors that won't break the bank. Most places I'm finding them online don't show any reviews to know if they're actually any good or not.

    94 stumbles and dies once warm.

    1994 GMC C1500. 5.7/4l60e Got the truck when it wasn't running. Dropped the tank and replaced the sending unit, pump and filter. Truck fired right up, let it idle for about 20 minutes and it drove perfectly fine on the 5ish miles I drove it around the neighborhood. Parked it and went to start...

    1996 No start no spark

    1996 C1500 4.3 Truck died in the middle of an intersection and decided to no longer have spark. Changed coil, ignition control module, cam sensor, and crank sensor. Still no spark. Can't seem to track down what failed. Any ideas?

    Third brake/ cargo light issue

    Recently noticed that my third brake light and cargo lights on my 96 stopped working. The bulbs are new and the switch seems to be getting power as far as I can tell. Is it a common problem for these trucks to have a break somewhere in the wires from the switch to the lights?

    Lower control arm bolt size?

    Going to be ordering everything I need to do a 4/6 drop on my 96 in the next few weeks. I already know that my lower control arm bolts are going to be seized as that seems to be a common problem on these. Can anyone tell me what size the bolts are so I can go ahead and buy new ones. I can't seem...

    1996 strange speedometer issues

    So I have posted a thread similar to this 2 years ago and never got a response of any kind and still have the issue. The truck is a 1996 Sierra C1500 4.3 with a 4l60e. The only time my speedometer is accurate at a dead stop. As soon as I start moving, the speedometer climbs quickly and bounces...

    1996 electronic issues

    Issue #1: Wipers that won't shut off. When I first got the truck last year the wipers were finicky. Sometimes I could make the multifunction switch turn them off, and sometimes not. Then after about 2 weeks, they never would shut off. Truck broke down shortly after so I didn't worry about it...

    Vortec 4.3 to carbed 350 swap questions

    I have an opportunity to snag a rebuilt 350 (355) that has quite a few goodies in it for a very good deal. My truck is a 96 and currently has a 4.3/4l60e. I'm curious as to what I can do to control the trans without spending 600 on a controller. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Sent...

    Speedometer inaccuracies

    Picked up my 96 1500 with a 4.3 4l60e about 2 weeks ago. I have to use a GPS speedometer on my phone to get an accurate reading. At around 30mph it says I'm doing 35ish. At 65mph, it says I'm doing 75ish. At 75mph, it says I'm doing almost 90. All other gages seem to be working properly and...

    1996 GMC Sierra 1500 Stepside "Lynn"

    Picked up this 96 stepside this past Wednesday. She's got 254k miles on the old 4.3 4l60e. A little back story on the truck. My mom bought it back around 2004/2005 with low miles and clean paint. She drove it and loved it until around 2010 when she sold it to my grandmother. It stayed with her...

    Budget SAS swap questions

    So, I am slowly building my girlfriends truck for her (1996 Chevy C2500) and she told me that she wants 4wd. Before any of you say to sell the truck and buy a 4wd, she has a big emotional attachment to this truck and wants to hold on to it. The questions I have for it are: She loves to...

    My girlfriend has a 1996 Chevy 2500 6 lug with a 350, auto trans, 2wd, extended cab short short bed. It is green (bright teal metallic I think is real name of it). It needs some work here and there but over all it's a good truck for her. She wants me to do some stuff to it, but I don't exactly...
