    Gonna try the intake gaskets this weekend. All my live misfire data points to that possibility.

    98 7.4 Vortec intake manifold leak

    I know this is old, but are saying go ditch the rubber gaskets for China walls and use the right stuff? Or to use the right stuff if you don’t have the rubber gasket

    P0300 - misfire only at idle, none while driving

    Been chasing this P0300 for a while now. 98 K3500 7.4L Hooked up a scanner to view misfire data and it’s all over the place with 2 & 3 and 6 & 7 being the worst. I’ve replaced every ignition component, spark plugs gapped at .45, new Bosch fuel injectors. New crank position sensor and did a...

    7.4L P1133 and P1153 after new O2 sensors

    99 K3500 Replaced both upstream oxygen sensors with new Denso ( from Amazon ) and now am getting both codes. I didn’t get them with the old ones, but they had well over 100k on them and wanted to change. I swapped them with new ones from them after returning and still have the code. Is it the...

    CEL won’t come on

    98 K3500 7.4L Trying to figure out why my CEL only will come on sometimes. When I turn the key to the on position it will most of the time not come on. One day it’ll do it for the day and sometimes on the same day it will not. If I have a code it’ll stay off for a while and then maybe once in a...

    95 Double Din problems

    I know this thread is old, but I have found a solution to fix that gap with the head unit and hvac controls, also what’s that black curved bracket for?

    Vacuum Leak at Smog/AIR pump

    1998 K3500 7.4L in California. I had been chasing a vacuum leak for a while. Bought a smoke leak detector and I saw a big cloud of smoke coming from behind the smog pump. Is the pump bad? Is there a seal or hose on it I can replace to where it may be leaking? I just want to see what to look for...

    Hydroboost - stalls with brakes pressed and full lock.

    I recently replaced the fuel injectorss with Bosch on my 99 K3500 7.4L and it finally got rid of my multiple misfire code. Engine idles and runs smooth as ever. After it reaches operating temps, it still runs good but earlier today when I was backing into my parking spot, it stalled. I know the...

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    Okay , I was quoted 600-800 from one guy who does classic car restorations. Does that seem pretty fair?

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    Here’s a picture of the good side with the wheels and shocks removed. Lol it could just be this is a ****** lift kit but truck was a good deal so I got it. Lift kits can be changed. But I just wanted to show everyone this angle. Okay now you can knit pick

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    I bought it with the lift kit ‍♂️ And I don’t need a shock connected to it, that’s not what i was saying. I need a new mount fabricated so that the hoop has something solid to attach too, and so that the shocks aren’t just hanging there rubbing on the tire like you mentioned. I think you...

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    That’s not the lower control arm, that’s the diff drop and lower control arm drop bracket from the lift. The uppers May be maxed out. But I just got it and on my prior ones I always put the ball joint spacers so it’s not maxed on the camber. But thanks for the concern

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    I just did all the ball joints and steering components. So that if I get someone to fab and weld a new mount it’s ready to go.

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    Lmao you guys really let me have it. Nice. First off yes the frame is straight, it has a 6 inch pro comp lift kit on it. Those hoops came with it to convert that shock mount point as a mount point for the bracket, and then to run dual shocks that connect to bracket that molts on top of upper...

    Front Passenger upper shock mount broken off frame

    Hey guys. So I bought this K3500 and only thing that is wrong is that the passenger upper shock mount was broken. Everything else is solid. Whoever tried to fix it did a crappy weld job. How should I get this fixed? Atleast temporarily. I found a guy who can fab and weld new ones only but it...

    454 low fuel pressure

    Just because I’m chasing the same issue I want to ask, what brand fuel pump and injectors do you have in?

    7.4L low fuel pressure

    Doing the scanner Friday. also, how could I perform a vacuum test to rule that out.

    454 low fuel pressure

    If I put my gauge right before the fuel filter and tested just the pump deadhead, what’s acceptable pressure? Also going to recheck my voltage at pump because I think it was only in the 12s for voltage.

    7.4L low fuel pressure

    My buddy has one I’ll be using this week. Hopefully it narrows it down. I did put a new cap and rotor, spark plugs, and wires. I do know new parts can be defective though. Hopefully the scanner narrows it down

    7.4L low fuel pressure

    No they’re not the originally but they’re reman. I did all the tests on them a month ago and they were real good. I don’t have the hot start issue either.

    7.4L low fuel pressure

    Makes sense. I just put the Delphi FPR FP10021. Now when I key on it goes to 60psi then drops to 52. At idle it’s 52. But when I hit the throttle it goes to 56-57. So better than it was. I know for a fact the previous owner out a cheap eBay pump so in the future May change that to a good brand...

    low fuel pressure after replacing injectors

    Yupp, i was leaning towards regulator too. I just pulled the upper plenum and saw a puddle of fuel where the vacuum port is for the regulator. Turns out previous owner put in some eBay brand called “Herko” and it’s like $12 lol.
