    Tank replacement for EFI

    I've read that running that pressure through the original lines isn't a good idea. When I did my conversion, I ended up running a new stainless braided AN line up to the regulator and a rubber high pressure line for the return.

    Door Jamb Switch Restoration

    I purchased two jam switches a few months back and one was DOA. I bought a second, but the threads were too small for the door. I ended up taking apart the DOA and the new and frankensteining them into one that worked

    1984 K10 Steering Column question.

    Cal is right, it's those 4 bolts loosening up. I completely rebuilt my column about a year ago, including all new bearings and any part that was still available for purchase. It started by wanting to tighten up the play in the wheel. If you get far enough into it to tighten those bolts up, make...

    Fuel crossover problem

    Just adding - the only change that has been made since last time the fuel system operated properly was a complete wiring harness. It's always possible that this has been an issue the whole time and I either didn't notice, or never had both tanks completely filled at the same time before, but I'm...

    Fuel crossover problem

    Hello all. About three years ago, I replaced both my fuel tanks to convert to an EFI system. Both tanks, senders and pumps were replaced, along with the fuel selector valve and switch. Everything had worked great up until a few weeks ago I just finished a complete rewire of my truck, including...

    Wiring Harness journal

    Few updates. I had to replace my six port fuel selector valve in an attempt to troubleshoot why my unselected tank starts spewing gas, but replacing the valve resulted in same problem. I wasn't planning on replacing it, but I broke off one of the ports trying to remove a fuel line. Nice $100...

    Sad Discovery: GM 10 Bolt Fails

    FWIW, I completely rebuild my 12 bolt a few years back, only reused the housing itself. It took me a long long time. Probably a month, and at least 20 attempts of putting together and taking it back apart to try to get the backlash and preload right. It cost a bit of money as well, by the time...

    Opinions on grounds needed

    My socket grounds, both up front and in back, tie together and connect to the nearest grounding lug with a ring terminal

    Opinions on grounds needed

    I ended up going the daisy chain method. People here told me it was overkill, but I don't care I drilled holes in various locations and used 5/26" threaded rods with nuts and washers to attach. Then a battery cable tying each of those lugs together. Anything nearby that needs a ground is...

    76 K10 rear main seal

    Is it a decent idea to just change all the rod bearings while the pan is down?

    78 K-10 Dual Tank Install

    It had the old three port valve, with single power wire. I replaced it with the newer six port version, and when you do that, you have to completely rewire the valve and selector switch. I believe it has six wires instead of 1, if I remember correctly. There are a ton of threads on here about...

    Making the Fuel System Simple

    FWIW - I installed an online pump with my Pro Flo 4 system originally. Stupidly, my first test drive was on an offroad trail in the middle of nowhere and it nearly left me stranded - the brand new pump kept overheating and I'd lose fuel pressure, needing to pull over every 10 minutes or so and...

    Fuel Tank Replacement

    You don't have to get a new sending unit if yours is working, but I probably would. Replacing those is not fun, and you're going to have the tank down already anyway

    Replace Steel Dash

    I actually saw the three dashes in the LMC magazine yesterday, which is what got me asking this question My dash is pretty mangled, especially around the steering wheel area. Most of the smaller, thinner braces are broken, bent twisted and dented, to the point where the wiper switch doesn't...

    Replace Steel Dash

    How long would you say that took? And how hard to get lined back up properly?

    Replace Steel Dash

    Old thread I know. Has anyone done this recently? I'm curious how difficult it would be to replace mine
