    Replacing carb

    @Turbo4whl oh so you have to press the gas pedal all the way down prior to cranking to engage the choke? I assumed it was manual but there isnt a choke cable inside the cab. Thanks I'll give the full press a try.

    Replacing carb

    Mine has the original quad (i think). Is there anyway i could convert it to electric choke? The manual choke seems to be halfway working. Cold it doesn't want to start, if i dump some gas down the yap it cranks up no problem and the choke engages and keeps the rpms around 1000. Any ideas?

    Drop On 4x4 Feedback Thread

    I agree, hard to go much lower than factory with some doctoring, even more for a 4by. Reminds me of a convo i had with my friend regarding my 2wd. I said well i like the factory height and in reply he goes. Lower or higher you gotta pick one!

    GMT 400 W/T

    Never heard of W/T but I'm also 29 and recently into chevys lol. Def ruff but $500 isn't bad, a screaming deal if you can get it running without much issue. Have you looked at any of the fluids yet?

    Mpg to expect on an '82 C20 3+3, 350?

    I calculated mine and got 16, then i realized that the odo isnt accurate. The gas gauge is busted. I use an app to track mileage and speed now. That said, i haven't filled it up in a while. Its not a daily, so most trips are <5 miles. But, i smile every time i drive it, so who cares!

    Broken hearted kid and fuel system

    Good points raised up. With all this effort, why not bypass everything and get one tank with fresh lines and an electric pump hooked up? If it still doesnt run, then yeah we need to look at other parts of the truck.
