    Turn signal issues

    I wonder if the switch connector has come loose - worth a quick check. Long black connector on the side of the column. To answer your question about the lever, probably not. If you have cruise there is a wire running down through the column you would have to work with and if no cruise it is...

    Windshield wiper switch knob

    Since the wiper switch was not my washer issue, I did change mine back out ... :cool: At my next opportunity , anyhow.

    Windshield wiper switch knob

    That one is probably like the LMC one and will have the universal symbol for the wipers as opposed to the Washer Wiper lettering. Just a nit picking FYI. :)

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    Value determined by Concourse and the low mileage, I am sure, and verified by the '79 F-150 guy above. A veritable bargain! :dogpile:

    78 Surburban Revival

    Welcome from Houston- and another Sub owner- part II ! And, I agree - hard to find the older ones. :(

    Lotsa nice squares on CL out here right now!

    I like green, so the color is not an issue. And I know @78C10BigTen will LOVE the OE mirrors. :dogpile:

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got to admit it still seems funny to hear CEL and squarebody in the same sentence. But, my 91 had OBD1 - and a light. Goldie runs OBDnaught.:anitoof:

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Could not get the cruise to engage today, so I broke out the 82 shop manual I have. Mine is an 80 but for most of the stuff the 82 is close. Also dug out the test light and just like the book says, with the test terminal grounded and the probe in the dark blue engage prong of the connector to...

    Shift Indicator

    If it is broken, it looks barely broken. Mine by comparison. Don-Ts idea makes sense. Or, I wonder if you could glue a flat washer on top of the piece circled in red. :think:

    For the Handicapped

    Just a quick thought: A small step stool or wooden box with a piece of rope tied to it. Step up in the truck, grab the rope, pull the box/stool in, and close the door.

    Wheel not centered in. . .

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    Please leave the unmarked bills in a briefcase at the corner of Smith & Elm. No cops - I will know if you are being followed. :dogpile: Da Fock is Dat guy on ?:eek:

    Mysterious wire under the dash

    Looks like the cruise wires to me, but... No idea why they are not attached to the cruise stalk...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Fired her up yesterday and did some basic fluid checks. Had a slight leak from the upper radiator hose so I tightened that clamp. She served me well during the freeze last week so a little PM was a fair return. :)

    LF turn signal wont shut off

    Won't turn off automatically as you turn, or is on all the time? My guess is the turn signal switch broke. You can kind of see how it works here - the 3rd image down on the left shows one upside down. ( Car Parts .com )The black piece side is down when installed and part of the hazard portion...

    305 SBC vs 6.2 Detroit: Which would you rather?

    It's early, and it's a rainy day so I am foggy and sleepy. :birgits_tiredcoffee Are you talking like a turbine engine? Or, electric?:shocked:

    305 SBC vs 6.2 Detroit: Which would you rather?

    I voted 6.2. I drove ( in the mid to late 80s) a mid 80s Blazer that a buddies Dad owned with a 6.2 and enjoyed the mileage, what seemed at the time as reasonable power, and smoking people at idle with neutral revs.:anitoof: Same guys Dad had a mid 80s K10 with a 305 that hauled ass, so maybe...

    Power Brake Booster

    I could never find an anodized one - disappointed that I had to go parts store black.:( Maybe someone here will know of a source. I did keep my old one JIC, and did have to modify the yellow plastic "rain boot" on my OE to fit the new. No boot = leaks into the interior thru the power booster...
