    5.3LS won’t rev?

    Does anyone have a tachometer recommendation? I have all working gauges except tach and speedo. I need atleast one of those to work and I figure tachometer will be the easier one. Also with my idle surge, I’ve currently got the throttle cable to fully closed, the idle is really low in my...

    5.3LS won’t rev?

    I do have one vacuum line that I suspect but it’s one of those special end lines that’s rubbery plasticy garbage. I can wrap electrical tape around it in the morning and replace it tomorrow. It’s too late today and that’s my only option to get to work tomorrow

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    Was running that morning, decided to show the truck some love because the injectors or the regulator or was leaking because you could see fuelpooling around the regulator if it idled for a while. Took tb off cleaned it regasketed assembled and it fired right up, jumped a and b ign on 10 sec...

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    It ran fine before I took the tb off and replaced the gaskets and cleaned all the caked up grime off of it

    5.3LS won’t rev?

    Oh I had one code, po507 I believe, IAC rpm higher than expected? Or something along those lines.

    5.3LS won’t rev?

    As far as I know everything was removed for the trans, and I have the vss wired in. I took the teuck on a drive today, first time it’s left the house in almost two months. Other than while sitting stopped the idle surges a little bit and it stalled once the truck ran alright.

    5.3L LS checklist with part numbers

    Fabric on bled my own exhaust with clamps and an Amazon kit. Currently 2.5” straightpipe with 45° turndowns behind the rearend. Obnoxious, yes, will it do for now, also yes. Other than the idle surge and the truck stalled once it ran pretty good.

    As the idle surges the spray pattern fluctuates with rpm. When the engine dies it stops spraying.

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    Yes iac was reconnected. The butterfly’s in the Venturi have a stiff spot. It’s not super noticeable doing it by hand but that’s the reason I originally rebuild the tb other than it was leaking around the regulator? I believe. Where it returns to on its own isn’t stiff but if the throttle snaps...

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    I assumed it had to be set since it had been removed. I’ve replaced the iac before(my first thread) and I never had to remove the screw cap

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    This morning I drove to the gas station got some breakfast went to leave and the truck stalled, started back up drove home. Ate breakfast tried to go to work, stalled going down the driveway then just starts and stalls and won’t stay running, with throttle I can keep it alive, I put it in...

    700r4 problems

    I can do that. Do you have any idea what size hose? I might have a little bit laying around I can use if it isn’t too big.

    700r4 problems

    I saw a little metal tube up top angled towards the rear of the vehicle, whag I could see of it was clean. The trans isn’t all grimy, I mean it’s clean. The pan looks aftermartket or something in my opinion. It’s got sort of a yellowish hint to it and I don’t think it’s steel. It has a crater...

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    The throttle screw is still capped off, if possible I’d like to avoid breaking the cap out. Could I do that procedure and just leave the idle wherever it’s at

    700r4 problems

    What are some things I can do to verify, for sure, this trans is shot. I’ve checked the governor gear it was fine. The TV cable could be too tight, I gave it a couple clicks more than it was when I got it because the cable had some sag in it. I will pull the tcase drain plug and see if fluid is...

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    The iac is new was replaced last year ish, I removed it and the throttle position sensor to clean the throttle body. The iac looked brand new. I haven’t put maybe 1000 miles since install. Edit: nothing was sprayed on, in, around, above, anything to do with the iac or tps. All I did was replace...

    No, engine had not been started yet. I can go start it and see what happens?

    700r4 problems

    After sitting overnight the fluid is at the top of the s bend part of the dipstick tube. This has me currently stumped. Could the TV cable be too tight? It didn’t shift until I let off the throttle then it went into a gear, I don’t think second because it didn’t pull much. The fluid isn’t dark...

    TBI 350 barely runs after tbi rebuild

    So I finally got around to showing my original truck some love, and as always it has fought me every step of the way. I got the throttle body out cleaned up all new gaskets etc. I took the tps and iac out to clean it. Got everything back on and assembled, truck fired instantly and idle I let it...

    700r4 problems

    I can check it but I figured with a “fresh rebuild” it would be clean but who knows. If all else I’ve got this k1500 I can take the 700r4 out of and rebuild mine I just want this thing driving already. Going to put wheel arches and rockers on it when it’s driving

    700r4 problems

    Somewhat similar to a 400, I had a th400 in my c30 that that tube had broken off. I can check it. If that’s clogged would it cause the trans issue? On the th400 previous owner said it would deep fluid out the dipstick tube.

    700r4 problems

    Where about on the bellhousing? I’ll check tomorrow when I put the reducers on and put some side pipes on it for now, I don’t know much about transmissions but this one is thrown me off the edge so far

    700r4 problems

    A 700r4, lol, I bought a 88 k1500 today because it’s got a “good” 700r4 in it but the accessory bracket on the front broke the two bolts at the power steering pump. I wrapped rope around the crank and water pump and drove it around the yard in 4L to see if 4x4 worked, that’s where I got the idea...

    700r4 problems

    Would that be causing my trans issue? I know the seal between the tcase and trans is blue silicone if some sort. It’s newer than older. It’s still clean it hasn’t been there a very long time, thats the only thing I’ve seen so far that backs up the “fresh rebuild”
