    Redoing fuel supply system

    Unfortunately, it doesn't cover dual tank setups, or routing of lines along chassis... But definitely some handy info in there... Still looking... :cheers:

    Redoing fuel supply system

    Ha! Where did you find that? I couldn't find the 77-80 range of docs.. I'll check it out... Probably answer a lot of questions... :cheers:

    Can't decide....

    Okay.. Just pulled the trigger on this... I'll let you know how it all goes... Their website is a freakin' mess... But they're aware of it and working on it.... LOL

    Redoing fuel supply system

    Are there any diagrams that show how all the factory fuel lines are routed on the dual tank system (79 chevy C10 long bed)? I have a fuel leak in the main line up on top of the tank.. Rather than just dropping the tank and fixing it the screwed up hack job way it is now, I want to get a new...

    Can't decide....

    The light choices are red, blue, green, and white.. Not crazy about the white... I'm mostly concerned with whether I'll like the dash lights color.. Red seems kinda 'in your face'... but they might be nice... I dunno.. I've never seen a vehicle with red instrument lights..

    Can't decide....

    I need to order my digital dash today... I've decided to go with the Intellitronix digital dash for the 73-87 chevy trucks But I'm not sure about the color... Trying to think ahead on the entire color scheme of the truck.. An I 'think' this is where I want to go.. I'm looking at an...

    Interior/Audio

    Previous owner already did that for the current stereo... I bet the manual is available on line and I can find out for myself.. maybe (depending on how good the manual is at explaining itself) :cheers:

    Quick (and hopefully easy) question

    Awesome! Love that! :cheers:

    Quick (and hopefully easy) question

    I started receiving the lamp sockets I ordered from rock auto today.. The ones for the turn indicator have three leads, black (ground), yellow (brighter), and brown (less bright)... Nothing to tell me which lead is for the park light, and which for the turn indicator... I 'suspect' that...

    Interior/Audio

    What size is the opening you had to make? I really like that and have been planning into looking into something exactly like this.. I like the ability to have a back up camera.... Someone who owned this truck before me already cut out the bezel to accept a regular sized car stereo, so I'm...

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    I'll keep it in mind when I start budgeting for the AC :cheers:

    What do you get for those?

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    Okay, landed some of this stuff.. But things are not what I thought... The wire labeled "AC Compressor Power" is actually #14, so it can handle 15-18 amps... HOWEVER, it does not appear to be coming from the fuse panel as I thought, but rather is just routed back into the cab area...

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    The current draw of that fan is gonna tell the story... Can't seem to find the info though... I'm gonna go ahead and land it through the existing junction block/fusible link.. It's gonna be a while before I work on getting the AC going, will need a compressor, bracket and hoses at the...

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    That's a good point.. Was searching the web some last night, and I saw others talking about how the compressor clutch (which is evidently what the power to the compressor itself is for) draws about three and a half amps, which would not be an issue for the wire the kit supplies... I think...

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    All of the original AC/Heat wiring harness is still in the truck, seeing as that was a separate harness, and the kit didn't come with one, I left it alone.. I'm mainly just trying to supply power to it from the two leads the kit does include.. I'm kinda concerned about the wire size...

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    Okay, so that explains why there are two wires from the same fuse, one on one side of the firewall, and one on the other... One powers the switch (for the low speeds) and one powers the relay for the high speed... Do you have any idea how much current is drawn through power supply (The big...

    Hooking Up Heat/AC during rewire...

    I have a cab on my truck that appears to be a 79.. I pulled all the wiring harnesses out, except for those having to do with the Heater/AC... I am using an EZ Wire kit for the rewire, have it mostly all done/figured out except for a couple things.. One of them is the Heat/AC system The kit...

    Where is the tank selector valve supposed to be?

    Found this for a 77!

    HELP!!! Ignition Switch Nightmare

    Naw, mine is fine.. In fact, everything feels a little tighter.. less sloppy now... I'm still doing the rewire, so I can't say for sure everything is perfect, but you can feel the switch snap between keep positions nice and precisely...

    Getting ready to order a bunch of stuff but looking for a cheaper source

    Getting ready to order a bunch of stuff but looking for a cheaper source

    Neither of those is a fusible link though.. or maybe the one's on the bottom have a link in between the two main lugs? Can't really see in the picture..

    Getting ready to order a bunch of stuff but looking for a cheaper source

    That looks like the same kit... There should be a small bag (or maybe it wasn't in a bag, now that I think of it) in there with two short wires coiled up together... One is about 3-4' long, a purple wire for the neutral safety switch, and another black one, small gauge (I'm guessing about...

    Somebody check my work please...

    Doing a complete rewire of my supposedly 73 (but probably 79 cab), most of the way done, just nailing down 2 or 3 circuits that I didn't have a road map for.. until now... I have scoured over everything I can find on the web to find the drawings I need, and as best I can figure out, the wiring...
