    Mirror replacement

    Haven't PM'd anyone on here before, so I think I did it right.

    Mirror replacement

    Right, that’s what I was potentially thinking. Seeing as how this is possibly going through insurance I figured they’d try to find the whole thing. Also I hit a traffic cone with the right one and bent one of the arms. So I was going to try to have a shop order 2 and I pay for one myself.

    Mirror replacement

    1987 2500 suburban. I just had a minor fender bender today. The driver side mirror was messed up pretty bad. The posts for it seem to be fine. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to get it replaced. I looked up replacement mirrors and they all seem to be what’s...

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    They read pretty much spot on. But it doesn’t seem to have the issue when I’m idling. I’ve been working on semis for the past 6 years, if I had a nickel for every part that was bad out of the box or went bad 6 months down the line. I’d just put my truck in a shop.

    Read front of block and intake manifold, temps are reading fine. Do you think it could be the impeller slipping on the water pump?

    Hard to do that since it only does it while driving. You’re more then welcome to hang out the window while I drive.

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    If it did, it was before I got it. And the coolant has been drained countless times and flushed 3 times

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    The suspicion came from it going up to 220-230 then back down about 20 seconds later. After I flushed and reinstalled a thermostat for the winter it would get up to 210(middle of gauge) and not go any high. Roughly 5k miles without issues. This whole thing has worried me since it wasn’t doing...

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    I’m assuming the gauge is fine since it sweeps no issue. The 195 that was in it and the 180 that’s in it now are both Napa brand. It’s all I could get. Sensor for gauge is in head. 195 Tstat would run engine at 210 gauge rock steady before issue developed. 180 Tstat runs ~190, unsure since...

    3ish years ago Is there a way to test the pump? (Edited to ask question)

    1987 suburban tbi 350 overheating.

    ‘87 Suburban with TBI 350. As I drive up the road the temp gauge will climb to ~220-230, then fall back down to thermostat temp. It will do this repeatedly. I had changed the antifreeze and put a 195 thermostat back in it for winter. (About 2 months ago) I had hoped that it was a case of...
