First off...running the engine for any length of time with empty coolant and empty P/S fluid is BAD. #1 wait till there is coolant in the engine first. #2 Fan needs P/S system full to disengage. It operates in failsafe mode and turns on when something in the system fails or it shot up. #3...

To answer your question, If your gauge is reading accurately 220 is normal. If you can run around all day and that needle stays right there you are fine. The fan switch ideally comes on at 230. and cools down from there. Normal cars do place "normal" in the center of the gauge...these arent...

Im gonna ask cause you are kinda vague and dont want to assume... Are you on the ohms scale on your multi meter? Did you touch one probe to the electrical terminal of the glow plug and one probe to the hex body of the glow plug? Making sure to scratch through to bare metal? Thats where you need...

If you cant find 50/50 premixed, Make sure to use distilled water to dilute to 50/50.

Thanks for the info Steve! I bypassed the Temp Switch on the side of the front evap unit. It fired up the whole system! Started blowing cold air out of the rear evap unit. The front was only blowing ambient(85). I freed up the hot water valve there by the air filter canister but no change to...

I got $200 in it with the lower mounts

You are gonna need a wiring diagram. Those metal tags are the key to the whole mess. Since all the wires are black. They act like the color coded wiring in civilian vehicles. There are metal tags on each end of the wires but you NEED the diagram that covers that series of trucks. Lighting work...

I assume you mean a spare TCM (mounted in the big box) If so, open your unit and get the part number off it so you get the correct one

You seem to be going in the right direction. You have clean fuel pumping out of the new filter housing. It tried to fire... I had this happen twice and out of frustration the first time I removed the fuel supply line AT the injection pump and cranked till fuel came out. It fired up instantly. I...

That unit is toast. The whole box is just a "waterproof" faraday cage for a stock GM TCM. I believe there are multiple part number TCMs that need to match your particular year(?) of transmission.

Trying to help a friend get his BAE style A/C to activate the clutch on the compressor. I have an electrical schematic im working with My friend took it to an A/C shop first. They hooked up their A/C gauges to it and told him the hi and lo pressures were good (without the clutch running) but...

Cool looks, functional, better engineering, and affordable? The ultimate bumper paradox.

I was going to say it might have been a fire sensor(?) for an automatic fire suppression system but Retiredwarhorses would be the expert.

In the pan. That measures the temp of the fluid entering the transmission which is all that matters. The internal seals need to stay below 265 degrees or they harden and leak pressure and cause the clutches to slip and burn out. Per my GM tech school transmission class. Also minimizes points...

Here are the basic arm position measurements. Get the main C frames here at the detent then you can adjust the clamps, pitch, and twist to taste. Having the drivers side in the low position eliminates the huge blindspot turning left.

Pretty much good advice above. From the look of the fluid on the stick I recommend doing a fluid and filter change. The Transfer case uses the same fluid, Dexron (III or VI) ATF, as the transmission and power steering system. 4 speed transmission fluid capacity is 5 qts after filter change. The...

If you are ever in the Phoenix area I have one with the lower mounts for sale

Are they Adding that "cash for clunkers" additive (Sodium Silicate) that destroys the engine as part of the demil now?

My 2 cents...Absolutely the CARC substitute green and brown. The black on the other hand has never matched for me. For the flat black I use the rustoleum Camo ultra flat black. It dries a more uniform flat without shinier spots here and there

Got these off ebay. Pay by the character. Nearly identical Markings on the hood are original
