    Spark plug wires not fully snapped on?

    Could loose spark plug wires cause an ignition coil to go bad or possibly the distributor to burn up? 95 5.7 with MPFI and it had the SLIGHTEST misfire and an EXTREMELY hard start (5-10 times before it starts and sometimes would have to wait 30 minutes or an hour to fire up) and we checked all...

    Hard Start/No Start

    Been having an issue with my 95 Chevrolet K1500 5.7 with an aftermarket MPFI system when starting. For the past 2 weeks the truck has had no issue with start right up, where hot or cold or any condition, and out of nowhere I went to start it up and no start after about 10 cranks. Exhaust has...

    Posi/LSD or open diff.

    Took my truck to a trusted mechanic to have some work done for a freshly bought truck. We bought it from a friend, 95 Chevrolet k1500 5.7 automatic. Got it back and was told the rear end was a “locker”. So we decided to test that theory out, and got confused. We went to an old backroad to give...

    NV3500 and NV4500

    Been doing a lot of thinking.. (lol probably a bad thing) but online rates these trans to have a much lower TQ and HP rating than i would think. For example, in my case if I were to swap my auto for the NV3500, they are factory rated at 300 ft/lbs of tq? That doesn't seem right at all. A buddy...

    95 Chevrolet k1500 5.7 tbi issue

    Since everyone suggests fixing the tbi, I’ll see what I can get. So we just put new distributor cap and rotor, ignition coil, plugs and wires. New fuel pump and filter, new IAC valve, new throttle position sensor, and at one point new map sensor but the old and new didn’t make a difference. The...

    95 Chevrolet K1500 5.7 TBI to Carb Swap

    Thinking about ditching the EFI and swapping to a carb, my only setback is the 4L60e. As far as I know the only things I need is a Holley carb and throttle position sensor kit, HEI distributor, matching intake for heads and carb (edelbrock performer 2104) and a fuel pressure regulator with the...
