I did not know that changed the meaning of words, someone needs to tell Webster....

I think you are on the right track. Checking the levels would be a good start.

That seems a little drastic!!

PLEASE plug those holes in the engine, a nut/washer or any other foreign material gets in there the engine could be toast!!

LEDs are run by a power supply built into the housing, there certainly is no guarantee that the power supply is/was designed for multiple voltages. Your clue was they fried as soon as you put 24V on them, the moisture which may very well not be water could have been released from the components...

It clearly says 12V

I got the DuraVee back in the shop today and started to make hoses, cutting the holes and installing the bulkhead pass-through was a PITA, my arms are just not nearly long enough to work both sides of the bulkhead, but we goterdone! Plenty of foot room for the passenger.

What caused the cylinder to crack was GM added piston coolers to the 6.5L engines, if there was significant core shift the tooling that drilled the holes into the oil galleries for the coolers would nick the bottom of the #8 cylinder wall which over time would cause the cylinder to crack.

Some research reveals GM did not install a cat. until the 6.5L came out in 1994, so your 1992 truck should not need to have a cat. This is what the original 6.2L decal would have looked like. I guess you are lucky in one respect, most R1s are given a new serial number and tagged as the year they...

No they would not have installed a cat. it would be rebuilt to M1097A1 specs, the 6.2L was no longer available so they used a 6.5L all other items would be the same as an A1 truck. The GM sticker you are showing looks like a civy truck sticker, all the military engines were exempted AFAIK. You...

What are the tag numbers???, I see another loose wire in the mid left of the picture.

You should have seen the difference in the volt meter. If it charges when cold then drops off as it gets fully warmed up that could be a bad regulator. You may still have poor connections, have you checked the positive connections where it goes through the battery box bulkhead on both sides? The...

The gaskets for the fuel pump and pump backing plate are the same as the SB chevy, look up say a 1976 350 chevy...

Have you removed the check valves???

There should be someone here that has actually done this, I would send them that pick and fill the paperwork out as a 2008. Usually GP lets the buyer decide what year it is if they don't know.

Sorry no attachment

I would be interested in what the data plate looks like, if you feel like sharing.

Welcome to the SS forums!!

Glad it looks like an easy fix, that was one of the connections I was talking about. The cable on the other side is the main ground, it goes to the starter, should even start better!!!

Another thing you can look at is the voltage from the 14V tap on the reg to ground and the rear battery when not running, they should be exactly the same..
