    Did they mess up belts?

    Well on top of me trying to figure out a bad idle when warm, I installed a new coolant temperature sensor. When I went to fire up the truck, I noticed a quick belt squeal (new to me). I just had flow masters 40s and new belts put on. (Serpentine and two V Belts) from a local shop that works on...

    1987 TBI Rough Idle Help!

    I'm not sure exactly what running rich is on a FI , it smells like an old truck and there is no excessive smoke. I am trying a new coolant sensor and will report back tomorrow when the weather is nicer to take for a drive.

    1987 TBI Rough Idle Help!

    scanned today. No codes. Just flashed the “12”. I checked the coolant temp sensor. Should the plug be able to turn at all inside the sensor? It moves about a 1/16 of an inch. Also my EGR if that's what is in the above pictures is a solid dome. I cant stick my fingers in there to see if it...

    1987 TBI Rough Idle Help!

    Hey all. 1987 TBI with an older Edelbrock Pro Flo FI kit on it. I took my truck out for the first time this year and noticed that once the truck is warmed up to operating temp, the engine idles low and poorly at stop signs while in drive. It idles fine in P and N but when I come to a stop sign...

    Adhesive Rear Cab Molding?

    Hey all, The rear cab of my truck has no molding that wraps around the rear of the cab. I very much like the look of this however the P/O must have patched the holes because right now it is clean looking. Do they make a rear cab molding that is a "stick on" model so I do not have to drill holes...

    Vent Window Question

    Ali you said that if i change the assembly to a one piece I need to make sure I get the right glass door run? Isn't the glass door run built into the frame?

    Vent Window Question

    Good afternoon, Did a search however could not locate a post. I have an 87 R10 with I believe a 2 piece assembly vent window. I was told as long as you replace the entire assembly, I can put a single gasket assembly in to replace the two piece assembly that isnt as prone to air leaks as bad. I...

    Mirror and Vent Windows
