    Wobbly power steering pump pulley

    My burb had a squeaking power steering pulley with a wobble, turned out the pulley was cracked about a third way around. The crack was hard to see in the engine bay but when I took it off I could see the crack.

    1987 Suburban R10 emissions problem due to modified intake

    1991 Suburban 3/4 ton: TBI to Holley Sniper conversion - stupid, or worth it?

    V1500 suspension question

    Rear springs don't seem right, looks like they took out leaf's or put a different leaf spring with less arch. I have 8 or 9 leaf's in my rear spring on my 90 Burb.

    Electric fuel pump

    Never had much luck with those external electric pumps...I think electric pumps need to be in the tank so the gasoline cools it, that's why oem electric in tank pumps work. Is your fuel return line still connected and free flowing back to tank?
