    Wheel bearing replacement.

    Jack front tire off ground, check for lateral play by grasping the tire at the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock position. Any play would indicate either worn or loose bearings Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Wheel bearing replacement.

    K Series Kohler, 2 cylinder - Oil Consumption - Advice?

    Being that the engine runs, I would perform a compression test. Follow up with leak down test. Read up on that. Its an internal combustion engine so no special diagnosis required. Good luck

    No spark problems.

    As you stated HEI would eliminate points and capacitor. I lean towards coil as well. The ignition control module typically are not intermittent, either they work or do not.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    For what it's worth, the late model trucks use dual fans. With a combination of 3 relays, can actually switch the fan speeds depending on demand. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Any such thing as a good Service Manual?

    For years the publisher of the service manuals, unit repair, wiring, and owner manuals was Helms. Try a search, been a while but that's what I did prior to the internet. By the way, nothing better than factory manuals. Haynes, chilton, motor, are meh

    77 K10 LS Swap

    Brother, the pictures you post earlier sure look more like filter debris than fuzz from a rag unless you aren't meticulous with cleaning. Wouldn't expect Fram to admit fault anyway Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
