    Temperature sending unit help!

    Yea this is the only part I have had trouble getting. And what the vendor is listing most of the time is incorrect. Hence I ordered two different senders with two separate descriptions and they both were the exact same.

    Temperature sending unit help!

    That’s the location This is the connector Part number through summit racing. This is the sender I purchased. Also ordered another one from summit that was exactly the same threads, which I thought was different but wasn’t. The threads are way to big to fit in that hole in the head.

    Temperature sending unit help!

    Ok I will get the pics uploaded. And yes I meant cylinder head. In-between 1 & 3 cylinder. I don’t have the old sender unfortunately. I bought this engine remanufactured and there wasn’t any sensors to go off of..

    Temperature sending unit help!

    I’m trying to look and see which one I would need but this document is kind of confusing. This sender is for a gage. 1987 v1500 GMC. A buddy of mine told me I needed the nipple style plug...

    TRANS COOLING Question

    Just put a Reman. 700r4 in my truck and noticed the cooling lines do NOT run through the radiator. There is an auxiliary cooler mounted along the frame On the passenger side under the bed of the truck. I don’t think that is efficient enough to cool the tranny. So I bought a new cooler that...

    Reverse lights not working!

    So I have power to the rear harness plug for my running lights, turn signals and brake lights but nothing for reverse! So I traced the wires all the way up to where they plug into the fire wall but from there I’m not sure where they go and what could be causing them not to work. Is it in the...

    Truck shuts down...

    So from the hot post on the battery to the post on the alternator there should be a fuse and that’s it? I’m illiterate when it comes to wiring diagrams. Seems simple but I’m not really familiar with it.. also what gauge wire is recommended?

    Truck shuts down...

    Sorry about the late reply. So I ran all new ground cables and cleaned up the connections. Had my alternator tested. It was good. Battery tested super low. Had it charged. With the truck running you could watch the battery drain on the meter. Ran a jumper from the hot stud on the back of the...

    Truck shuts down...

    not sure if I’m in the right forum but I’m pulling into the chic Fila parking lot and the truck shuts down and battery is dead... won’t start back up without a jump. Any ideas?? I mean the truck could run if battery is dead and I don’t think it would just shut down if the alternator was bad...

    Oil pressure gage help!

    What if I installed an after market oil pressure gage? Copper tubing to the port above the oil filter? And just do away with the sending unit?

    Oil pressure gage help!

    Ok that sounds good only problem is my wire is actually green. I spliced it to make it longer so it wasn’t laying on the headers

    Oil pressure gage help!

    Where both of my fingers are is where the sender bottoms out. Maybe have the wrong sender? Do you have a photo of yours?

    Oil pressure gage help!

    The clearance issue seems to be that the oil sender is too wide and I can only get it on like two threads before it bottoms out. I’ll go outside and see if I can get a picture and point to where it’s having the issues

    What is this??

    Ok got it thanks! I must have misread that. So I thought that had something to do with the computerized advance timing... is there a plug I’m suppose to unplug when I’m setting the initial timing?

    What is this??

    Haven’t been able to find much about this but I seen some one call it the advance timing circuit. I’m trying to get my engine timing set and do not know if this plug has any relevance to do so. Can someone kind of walk me through the correct way to set the timing? I know on the older Sbc’s...

    Oil pressure gage help!

    Yea so the, “oil pressure switch for the fuel pump circuit” on my truck looks similar to that but is screwed in just behind the distributor and is “L” shaped. The one that is supposed to go to my oil pressure gage, (the one on the side of the block driver side) is that in the wrong spot? It...
