Picked up a 1988 K3500 last year with what I believe to be a TBI 350. Runs great and has under 100k kilometres on it, but at idle it bogs down to a near stall before returning to normal idle speed. Any ideas on what's wrong?
(It's got an SM-465 in it if that helps)
I have been having a lot of problems with my 1996 K3500 5.7l
The truck has about 220K miles on it. I recently had problems with it running very rough. I found out I had low compression on two cylinders, So I decided to get a new Long Block.
I replaced a lot of other parts with it.
