    Heater control went dark...and it's cold outside!!!!

    Thanks. I replaced the control unit since mine looked like someone tired to tear it apart. It didn't help but at least I know its not the problem. On to checking the plug. It's suppose to be a high of 15 here next week and this weekend were suppose to get a bunch of snow. Why do I live in...

    Heater control went dark...and it's cold outside!!!!

    Nope. I am but not the dash lights. ;) Also where is the connector for the heater/blower? Would that cause the control to go out? I drove it later with the lights on and the light for the heat/cold adjuster is still lit up so I assume that control is getting power. A local junkyard has...

    Heater control went dark...and it's cold outside!!!!

    Well my '92 Chevy truck's thermostat (5.7) was stuck open so I replaced it. While doing so I noticed that someone had a ground run to one of the bolts. No idea why. So I put it back on. Well on the maiden voyage it was working fine when all of a sudden the heater control went dark, then came...

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    FIXED!!!!!!!! Turns out the distributor was really crappy. The bushings were toast. That and a new set of wires and it's running good. Thanks everyone!

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    Well in other news...I started the truck up for a friend and while it was in park, I gradually moved the throttle and it stumbled like crazy and smelled really rich. It smoothed out once it got to higher rpms but it smelled really rich. ??????????????????????? And this is in park so the trans...

    How much are we talking? I've seen the solenoid for about $25

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    It's actually a plug on mine that powers the entire trans. We cut the wire that powered it but it didn't help at all. It's not a plug like on a 700R.

    Anybody know how to check the TCC?

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    Stalls when at low rpm. It will burble when slowing down. The only way to keep it going is to pop into neutral and give it some revs.

    I'll try it tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

    In neutral or drive it will idle all day long.

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    That's what we've been thinking too. Any ideas on how to check it?

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    Checked the TPS, MAP, ECT, replaced the cap and rotor (the rotor was really gunked up). Still same thing. It idles in park and neutral no problem. Give it some gas and it starts to stumble. No idea!

    Yep an auto, 4l80. It stalls after you've hit the brakes.

    '92 5.7 starts, then stalls when in gear...

    Like the title says. I just bought the truck and it test drove fine but on the way home it would stall at every stop. We went through obvious things and we can tell the previous owner had the same problem (which he failed to tell me of course) because some of the vacuum lines were replaced and...

    Aftermarket gas gauge hook up?!?!?!?

    I've replaced the stepper motor with no luck. Yes they were good stepper motors. Do you know what ohm range is needed? Thanks!

    Aftermarket gas gauge hook up?!?!?!?

    I'm sick of my vibrating gas gauge that doesn't really work. Has anyone installed an aftermarket gas gauge and if so how did you do the wiring? Something similar to this. http://www.jegs.com/i/VDO/918/301-301/10002/-1
