    Headlights and dash lights problem

    Either the dimmer switch went out on the column or the headlight switch went out. I'm thinking more of a headlight switch because of the headlights not working.

    Help wiring CS-144 alternator on 88 GMC suburban

    That's where I get confused. My truck I can't find many like it as far as wiring and I can't find a diagram for this. Yeah I took the throttle body off but just pulled the wires back and put them in wire loom behind the engine. I still want all the factory gauges to work. So what do I do with my...

    It bolts up. I just have to notch the upper bracket where it bolts to the intake or just remove and not use that bolt. But the clocking is perfect. I just don't want to plug it in and the wiring being wrong and shorting anything out or burning any thing up. Also my truck has the gauge package...

    Help wiring CS-144 alternator on 88 GMC suburban

    So I am lost on what I need to do. I have a harness but I don't think it's the right one part number 792 duralast. It looks to work for older trucks not mine. I just don't want to burn up a brand new alternator

    What about the pink with black stripe wire? Also it never had a heavy gauge red coming off of this plug. It did however have a heavy black with red stripe on the one lug on the back of alternator to positive terminal on battery. This was an all original truck too. No wiring was ever touched on it.

    Help wiring CS-144 alternator on 88 GMC suburban

    I started to do the CS-144 upgrade on my 1988 GMC Suburban 1500. Originally it was the 350 TBI and I have since converted to carbureted.

    Or this it looks as if it should have two small hoses attached but nothing was there when I got the truck

    What's this?

    1986 Silverado 305/350c saddle tanks. No hoses are attached to it. If anyone can help me it would be much appreciated. And I know about the shorted wire. Still trying to chase that thing down on why it did it. Not sure when though.
