    Choke plate not closing.

    So your choke closes on its own now overnight now? Mine has never closed back on it’s own, wondering if mine is broke too. Lol Before I attempt to start my K10 I have to pump the throttle once then the primary blades close. Cranks first try.

    15 inches of vacuum

    I’m late to the party too. Lol My stock 350 with around 90k miles pulls around 15.5 right now. I have the idle set to 600 RPMs and my idle screw definitely changes the vacuum. The higher the idle the more vac, but I’m happy with the idle at the moment. I’ve read from some that 15 is low, and...

    Looking for Cruise III linkage

    I honestly don’t even know what it looks like. I just figured it was a very specific type of clip.

    Surging idle in cooler temps

    I honestly didn’t know that the idle goes back down as the choke opens. I thought you had to hit the gas pedal for it to idle down.

    85 C10 Fan help

    The sensor is not touching the pan. It is suspended by the channel locks to be about 2 inches about the pan. Good looking out tho! I’m sure there is still something I could be doing better

    85 C10 Fan help

    How come it wouldn’t work? The gauge is grounded to the frame via alligator clips.

    85 C10 Fan help

    Awesome! Looks like I’ll try to get ahold of one. No, I bought another sending unit for 8$ to see if maybe it was bad. Both are same part numbers. Figured it’d be easier to test one already out of the block instead of getting coolant everywhere.

    85 C10 Fan help

    Thanks guys. I posted some pics ^^ up top and found out my gauge is inaccurate for some reason. Still not sure if it’s a bad gauge or if I have the wrong sending unit..Possible bad ground? I have. I have no idea..

    85 C10 Fan help

    I’ve been doing some research and have ran across that too. Looks like they all run up to 260. I’ve tried 2 different sending units. It would really help if someone out there knew what sending unit they had in their truck! :) thanks

    85 C10 Fan help

    Well, I think I found an issue here. I tested my temp gauge for accuracy just to be sure it wasn’t just the gauge being off before I put money into an electrical fan and new radiator. Has anyone else had issues with an inaccurate gauge? Could something else be making the gauge inaccurate? Thank...

    New Inner Fender suggestions

    I only know of a pull a part around here which doesn’t have older vehicles. I’ll have to check out the cities you mentioned I suppose.

    New Inner Fender suggestions

    Looking for an inner fender replacement. I have an 1985 K10 4x4. I’ve read some reviews that some aftermarket fenders have to be modified a bit to fit correctly. Was curious if there are any exact fit fenders out there or if anyone else has had experience with slight modifications. Thanks guys!

    Temperature Gauge Wire HELP :)

    Truck is a 1985 K10. Just bought the truck and the temp gauge is not working. It has an aftermarket gauge installed which doesn’t work either, but I’m wanting to go back to the original gauge and wire or cable. The problem is I don’t know what that cable/wire looks like. I have found 2 wires in...

    AC Blower motor noise?

    I had the same issue and this fixed it. The male plug on the blower has 2 contact points that ground against the blower frame itself. You can’t see them unless you take apart the motor. Fairly easy, all you need is to take out the blower and use needle nose pliers to separate the connecting...
