Gave Blaze a well deserved bath and changed out the glow plug controller card. Wow, that's what the " WAIT" light looks like!! :-)

I'll second nyoffroad, check with your local body shops to see where they get their panels. I was looking for some repair panels and what started off as $28 parts with $110 shipping, ended up being $26 parts and a few miles travel to a local warehouse.

Welcome to the site. I'm also displaced, though not as far. Grew up on the NW side of CC, Annaville, & Calallen.

The IP is under & just in front of the air cleaner. Pink wire goes to the IP to cut it off, two green wires go to the advance & fast idle. My GP relay failed & I replace it withth st85, worth the money & tried/true.

Are you still getting power to your cold advance & fast idle? They're the green wires on the injector pump. These are controlled by a temp switch/sensor on the passenger side block, towards the rear.

That is what I call SERIOUS urban camouflage!!!!!

Just about have my water pump replaced. WHY does this have to be a PITA??? Passenger side alt. removed, power steering pump removed, and that little tiny hose connection on the top so I can the LAST bolt out! REALLY??? Bout done!

The last time I had problems with a stiffer than usual steering, one of the bracket securing nuts left me and two of the others were extremely loose. I replaced the missing nut, tightened the two loose nuts and readjusted the belt. No problems since.

Check out the "alternator symptom" sticky (post 120) in the CUCV forum. That location is only used on the driver's side alt. It's tach pick up as part of the STE/ICE diagnostic system.

To lube the speedo cable, I pulled it loose of the speedometer, disconnected the other end from the trans. The speedometer end has a little cup at the end that I filled with a penetrating oil, then I put a drill on the trans side and ran it for a few minutes. It made a world of difference in my...

Ditto what jw4x4 said, speedometer error is a ratio or percent so it shows more at higher speeds. If you're interested in correcting it or calculating the error you might try this site http://chevelleengineer.home.comcast.net/~chevelleengineer/speedo.htm

Nice haul !!! Glad to hear y'all made it back safe & without any problems. How was the ride?

Welcome to the forum. You'll find quite a few folks in the Houston area and even more in the surrounding towns. You've been warned......the OD disorder continues!

You might have a look at this thread, I think he goes through the plus & minus of things. BTW I realy liked your thread on your extende cab Duece!! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?73907-My-GMC-a-little-update

Yep you are correct, I did incorrectly mention the starter relay under the dash, sorry. The solenoid on the fire wall is what I had go bad. It would click but not pass power on to the glow plugs. Have you checked for voltage passing through the solenoid after the click you hear? If none, it's...

I have had the relay/solenoid on the firewall go bad. Mine was still clicking, just wouldn't pass power on through. You say you have 13v at the relay, is this the one under the dash or on the firewall in the engine bay? Any noise at all from it when you turn the key??

Going great, moved out to Port Acres in Sept., 66th St, across from Daley's fish & hunt. If you need room to park anything, let me know. Lots more room than Griffing Park & not as many restrictions!

Y'all be safe, hear!

Bartonm1009, any luck on your trailer wiring issue????
