Are you sure the GP's are working? Any smoke? It could be the GP's aren't working or the relay or it could be a leak in the fuel system and the engine lost it's prime. Or it could be the fuel shut off solenoid in the IP

I drive a 1008 daily and get 20mpg in the summer, winter it goes down due to 'winter fuel' and oil and grease is thicker so more rolling resistance and the fact I have an 8' snow plow on it. That truck does have a 700R4 in it and that is what makes the difference. The best MPG I ever got was on...

That 911 in the red bottle is great stuff, I had to use it once on my big truck when the filter gelled up just after getting on the highway. I unscrewed the plug on the top of the filter housing and poured in a few ounces and I could see it dissolving the wax crystals immediately. Now that you...

Moog, spicer are good to go, stay away from the lifetime warranty junk at advance and auto zone type stores they don't last and who wants to replace them every year or grease them every week? I've tried auto zone tie rods and had one that had different taper then the OEM took it back and all the...

I'm no tranny expert (take that however you want :) ) but it sounds like a vacuum problem NOT a slipping problem. If it was slipping you'd hear the engine rev up almost like you shifted into neutral. How's the fluid color level and smell? Is it full, check on a level surface with engine running...

It's been a looong time, but IIRC it does fit BUT you will need the burban tank straps and it will hang down lower. I also seem to remember that GM offered the 20 gal and a 30 and a 40? gallon. Not really sure as its been years.

A 70 amp relay will handle 70 amps but without knowing what the lights draw your guess is as good as mine!

I one time filled up at a small mom n pop type station and ended up with a partial tank of gasoline, truck ran like crap and lost power and IIRC it smoked too. I'd run a tempory fuel line to a clean can of fuel and hope that the engine settles down and runs right. Good Luck!

That would be a real nice option, I live in Northern NY and don't have any type of block or oil heater and have no trouble starting up at 4AM. Good batteries and glow plugs are a must.

That by itself would make me walk, add in the fact that it's a lighter duty would make me run.

Well so much for my thought of a frayed throttle cable!:-P Clean it up and readjust it with a straight screwdriver, just be CAREFULL of the fan blades!!!

No it's not, but in a pinch I'd make it work! Looks like it would need to be straightened and shortened. Get it close and then use the adjustment on the cable for fine tuning.

I second that! I went that route before and was out there in the cold snow changing that leaking pump 2 more time before I found a GM pump on amazon.

Did you have any trouble with the insurance company?

Advance the pump timing, turn the pump up, a 70R4 swap. All have been discussed here many times Gearing has a direct effect on 'felt horsepower'

Yup and now that your batteries are partially discharged and you put another stock relay in there in to will stick and weld the points together. Atleast that's what happened to me, make sure your batteries are charged!

Under the manifold, sheesh! I would've been layin underneath looking and thinking WTH? Following this build with interest. It was hard to see how bad that frame is from the pic's but I would've put it on the machine and pulled it. But then again I don't have a spare frame!:D Too bad about that...

I've been around these trucks since they were new and never seen any access panel. I think what your looking at is a reinforcement to stiffen the inner fender.

I had a regulator that went down to 1 psi, it had some dental manufacturing company's name on it. Sorry it's long gone but it might be a lead.

Civvie trucks and Blazers did come with the duct work and a air "silencer" that was supposed to quit the engine. Don't really know if it helped that much with noise but it does bring cool fresh air to the engine.
