    Edelbrock electric choke question.

    I have an older EB carb with Electric choke, I think a 1406 but not 100% certain. It's 10 plus years old. My question is, is there an adjustment to control how quickly one can shut the choke off? I know as it is warming/warmed up you can pump the throttle quickly to shut it off. However on...

    I'm sure it's an age old question, K 20 ride quality improvements.

    My truck started as a 77 K 20 (donor body is an 86). When I drug the truck home 15 years ago it was a mess. Had spent it's life as a logging truck for a timber guy. Anyway I remember pulling the shocks off and they would just slide in and out if I turned them upside down. I remember thinking...

    350 dipstick tube

    I've owned my truck for around 20 years and the dipstick tube has always been loose. Being lazy I have always jut put slight pressure on it when pulling the dipstick out so the tube doesn't come out. It's never leaked or caused an issue but after changing the oil today I asked myself why...

    Oil filter part number

    My truck has a 1977 350 in it. I am planning to switch to WIX or NAPA Gold oil filter. Anyone have the part number handy for either of those filters. Last oil change I did, I was in a pinch and Fram was the only option. Never been a fan of those.

    Cab light question

    Must first say I know zero about electrical, I just don't get it. Anyway last year I had my truck painted. I noticed last night only one of the cab lights was working so I assumed the bulbs were bad as they are pretty old. I pulled the covers off today and the bulbs looked good so I swapped a...

    Seatbelt question

    Quick question. It was freezing outside today so I didn't spend much time but I did pull the seat and plastic mat out of my 86 K 10. I got new carpet that I am going to install. Tomorrow I am going to pull it into my pole barn and fire up the wood stove and get everything warm. One thing I...

    Where did you order your carpet from?

    Thinking about going from the rubber mat I currently have to black carpet. Rock Auto has the ACC black with mass backing for just under $200.00, this includes shipping. From what I have read just about everyone sells the ACC brand carpet. Are there any other retailers selling the molded...

    Bondo question

    I am thinking a bout repairing my dash before I drop $400 plus on a new one. If it works great, if not then I'll buy one. Watching a lot of youtube videos I see a lot of people using bondo. Some fill the cracks with it and many people end up putting a skim coat on the dash and basically treat...

    Vent Windows

    I am thumbing my way through all the videos and posts on vent window rebuilds. For those that I have done it I have a couple questions. First off I have a friend who owns an automotive glass company and he is going to do the labor for me so I am just shopping for the parts. From what I have...

    Best aftermarket antenna option

    Slowly making some improvement on my 86 K 20. I added an aftermarket stereo years ago and at the time the aftermarket fenders didn't have hole for a stereo antenna so I have been listening to CD's. I am curious if any of the "hidden" type antennas are worth a crap. I also need a new...

    Dumb down headlight relays for me.

    I'm looking into option on my headlights for my 86 K 20. I don't drive it much at night at all so I can't justify the higher end LED's like Holley's. I should start by saying unfortunately I know nothing about electrical and wiring and just can't seem to figure it out. Am I reading right that...

    Needing some help from a small engine guru.

    I'm not real mechanically inclined.....(Just needed to get that out there). I have a Ferris 61 inch ZTR mower with a 30 horse Briggs engine. Last week I was pulling my sprayer and was only running about half throttle. Right before I parked it the motor started to bog down like it was running on...

    Sandblasting advice needed.

    I am wanting to put a spray in bed liner in my 86 K20. The issue is the donor bed I obtained and have on it had a DIY herculiner type liner put on it before I bought it, years ago. 80 % of it has worn off as the bed floor is basically bare meatal but the bedsides and wheel wells that don't get...
