    Fuel selector valve

    You can find wiring diagrams all over the internet showing the tank wiring, just Google it and thank Al Gore for inventing the internet.

    Tbi runs strange

    Check the Idle Air Control motor. Sometimes they'll act up and not set a code. Take it out a clean the plunger and passages and see if that helps.

    TBI Dual tank wiring

    I'm doing the same thing on a 74 K10, and here's what I did. I was going to use a single higher pressure pump mounted on the frame, but then read that it's better to put the pump in the tank so the gas can cool it. I took two new pick up/sender units and spliced a pump onto each one. The way...

    The benefit, in my opinion, is better fuel mileage since the fuel is metered better. Not sure how much better mileage you can expect, as you are still, in essence driving a shoe box. The older pickups are not the slipperiest things on the road. I'm not sure that you well get any better...

    Thx Matt for the info. If I do it again, I'll still build my own harness, as I enjoy doing wiring stuff. AFI Harness has a neat site, though. As for my fuel tank/pump situation, I was able to salvage the original two 16 gallon tanks, and used an Eastwood tank restorer kit on them. I was...

    Help me please

    Have you checked the Idle Air Control Motor. If it's dirty if can cause a high or rough idle. Not sure if being dirty would throw an Idle Air Control Motor code. If there were an electrical system problem with it, then it should throw a code. However, all this ranting may be for naught as...

    Matt, I would like to hear what you would do differently. So far, as mines not running yet, here's what I did. Instead of paying Painless Wiring, or some other harness manufacturer, 3 or 4 hundred bucks of a harness, I built my own. I bought a reconditioned ECU from EBAY, got the connectors...

    Sometimes you just stare in amazement....

    Got to admit, those are real heavy duty switches for a 12 volt system.

    1974 K10 short bed

    I am restoring a 1974 K10 that I bought new in 1974. I gave it to my grandson several years ago, so I need to get it back together and running before he turns 16 in 4 years. It's got a .030 over 350 that I am putting a Throttle Body Injection system on from a 1995 Chevy Pickup. The drive...
