    4WD Fuse Blowing

    Hello, on my 1993 K1500 the 4wd fuse will not stop blowing. I've read every post I could find on here and other websites, and nothing will do the trick. I was hoping that someone would have a fix before I spend another $150 on a Posi-Lok after spending $150 on a new electric actuator and t-case...

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    Okay loads to unpack here, never thought I'd get so much info, so thanks everyone! #1: Gearing. I've decided when I get the money to build the truck into a daily-able trail rig as is my plan I'm going to go with 4.56 gears. I would do 4.10 if staying with stock height, but I'll be putting a 4...

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    Yes, it's 10.5% more revolutions per mile than the stock 225/75/16s. So when I measure from odometer I get about 8.5, so multiplied by 10.5% in reality I get about 9.5mpg. Don't mind less odometer mileage either if i decide to sell her in the future

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    Wow, thanks for so much great info. Something I didn't mention is that once I replaced the thermostat, it wouldn't read past 150 on the gauge, so I replaced the engine temperature sensor. That still didn't change where it was on the gauge, so I replaced the gauge sensor on the intake. That...

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    Okay, I'll air up that should boost it marginally. Yea the tires aren't doing me ANY favors. I do offroad my truck often enough though that they are worth it to me, but it's still a daily so I'm trying to squeeze every last drop out given it's set up. Regarding the gearing, that's what I've...

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    Yea the only issue is I'm building it into a trail rig, gonna be putting a lift and locker and regear to 4.10s, so while none of that is good for fuel mileage I'm trying to get the best I can.

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    By proper thermostat do you mean a 195? It's OBD1, so I'd need to buy one of those other tools that connect a usb to a laptop? Good to know the EGR is that important, thought it just was a stupid emissions thing didn't realize it could effect timing. Thanks!

    Should I be getting better gas mileage? Improvements?

    Okay, so I've been battling bad gas mileage ever since I got my truck a little over a year ago from my dad. He also got it from his, so I know everything ever done to it for the most part. It's a 1993 SCSB GMC Sierra 1500 with a 5.7l and the 4l60e. Its got ~241k miles on the body, 130k on the...

    Key won't turn to START position

    Hi, so I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with my 93 Sierra 1500, and I've found a mix of answers, so I'll describe the problem. To start, it's got a 4l60e. Sometimes it'll be a little hard to pull the column shifter out of park, normally if im pushed up against a curb or something. Anyways...

    Stock Amplifier Info?

    Hi all, I'm planning to install some basic budget speakers in my 93 single cab k1500, and I can't find any info anywhere about what wattage RMS per channel the stock amplifier puts out. I understand it will be around 10 watts RMS?. Any info would be useful. I'm looking at two sets of Pioneer...
