    What have you done to your square lately??

    Replaced the fuel pump on my '75 Chev K/20 yesterday. It's been a couple of decades since I've done that job before! No leaks, good to go for the rest of my life (I hope).

    Fuel Pump?

    Thanks for the info. I'm headed into town this morning to pick up a Delphi brand one. I didn't see any AC Delco ones for sale.

    Fuel Pump?

    Well, it's time to replace the original fuel pump on my 1975 350, it's leaking. Can anyone suggest the best brand/quality mechanical pump that's available? I haven't had to change a Chevy mechanical pump in decades!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I agree with you! I bought this car from the original owners a few years ago. They kept it garaged and maintained. He never had any issues with the engine and I haven't either. When I mention it has a diesel, everyone says it's a POS, not this one. People don't know how to care for the older...

    Sorry about not answering about he car. It's a '72 Olds, Ninety Eight coupe. It has about 88,000 miles on it.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I just finished up originally flushing, cleaning the radiator (original 1975) replacing upper and lower hoses. The radiator was worn out, I had to purchase a new radiator (Performance Radiator made in China with plastic tanks and aluminum core). The new radiator inlet is a 1/4" smaller in...

    I'm a legend

    Yes, I received mine too. I don't know what I'll do with the umbrella, probably give it as a gift to someone. I do use the tape measure and hat. It seems like I got something else but can't remember. It's nice getting stuff like that once in aa while.

    Dana 60 Death Wobble

    After reading all the above replies, I agree with loose/worn parts. I was thinking loose lugnuts, unbalanced tires and or worn tires, worn wheel bearings.

    350 to 292 swap.

    I did a 292 to 350 swap in a '68 C/10 back in the '70's but don't remember a whole lot about it except the motor mount issue which wasn't hard but the 350 sat back a ways and needed a longer shroud. The 292 was a good engine but was using oil when I bought it. I drove it for a year or two until...

    Questions about '74 All Time 4wd, HELP

    I had my '75 K/20 converted several years ago but wouldn't have if I hadn't had the front driveshaft take out the tranny pan caused by a worn U joint. It's safe to drive on dry pavement. The front driveshaft always turns but is not engaged in 4x4 until you shift into 4x4. I didn't notice an...

    Radiator recore or buy new?

    I just pulled the original radiator in my '75 K/20 with an automatic and took it in to get cleaned as I'm replacing hoses, thermostat and coolant. Cave Radiator in Kingman, AZ is the only one left as well, it's been in the family since 1970. Anyway, he told me I had a few minor leaks (which I...

    core support bolts

    I agree, antiseize is the best solution I've ever seen or, stainless steel. I just remove the thermostat housing bolts on my 1975 350, the threads on the bolts were half gone from rust, I'm replacing with stainless steel bolts. The block threads are good, I chased them with a tap.

    Block Heater install, Removing Plug?

    If you haven't already installed the new block heater, don't. Buy a Kat's tank heater, more wattage, faster heating, better circulation. Follow instructions and you'll be very happy with it. Either put it on a timer or plug it in an hour before starting, 2 hours if it's below -20. I was a heavy...

    Fender Antenna

    My '81 Custom Deluxe had both antennas, one in the glass and one mounted on the fender/cowl. When I bought it, it had an aftermarket AM/FM cassettes player but in rural AK I couldn't get any stations and my 3 year old daughter stuffed the cassette player full of .44 Rem mag rounds and couldn't...
