    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    @Craig 85 so I'm having a hard time finding where this efe is supposed to plug into. I've got a random hose not hooked up to anything off that brown port on the air cleaner. Is that where it goes? There isn't any other ports near the thermostat. And the broken brown one, what plugs into the...

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    Thanks everyone. It's a really nice truck and emission/smog testing or not you've all helped me decide to keep it original.

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    Ok, so the EFE canister plugs into where? What plugs into the broken port on the vacuum port?

    I'll do that. It needs quote a few gaskets. Its leaking a little oil too. Smells super rich when I punch it too.

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    I'll check the thermostat vacuum. Once the truck warms up its tits. I'm beginning to think restoring any nonfunctional/ missing factory components is the way to go. It runs very well, I'm just a power whore, lol. I guess I can drive my '13 Ram sport if I want to go fast. I definitely want to...

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    And when put it drive and give it gas it wants to die at just idle to about 1/4 throttle it just died on me. Starts right back up. Then you have to push passed the dead spot in the throttle and it bogs for a second then shoots forward. It didn't do it with the timing advanced.

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    When I got it, it was pinging so bad. It was at 40 deg advanced. The sticker on the air cleaner says 4 deg, I put it at 6-8 deg. It runs better but has trouble starting when cold. Usually takes 3 cranks and 5 pumps on the accelerator. Maybe it's that heat riser....

    I think I'll keep it factory and just tighten it up. I love the fact that it's all original. I saw it and freaked out.

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    Is the heat riser valve the one that doesn't have a hose on it? It looks like it is supposed to attach to the brown/tan port coming off the air cleaner but it's broken. I dont know if that's actually where it goes or not. It runs good. Really smooth. It likes to die at just off idle as you...

    HELP! Keep it stock or go a little aftermarket

    I picked up this 1982 K20 and it runs pretty good. It's almost all original under the hood. Air pump, air injection on the manifolds. It starts and runs well, but I'm debating headers. I've never had one like this, so original. But it doesn't have much power. The original air cleaner is still on...

    Frame identification

    Not sure where to post this, but my k20 has a stamp on the frame. I've never seen one stamped.

    Dual battery setup questions

    My dual battery setup has parts inline on the positive side of my auxiliary battery. Does anyone know what they are? This is on the passenger side just off the isolator. There is also one about a foot away from the battery and accessories are attached to a post going that way. I'm thinking...

    Wipers turn on after random components are shut off.

    $1,500. It's a 1982 k20 Silverado. Low miles and almost completely original. 4" lift. Truck is in amazing condition. It sat for a long time and needs a little work.

    My wipers have the knob you twist. I've never seen one like this. It seems to be a LO speed.

    Wipers turn on after random components are shut off.

    I just picked up another square. It's an 82 k20 Silverado. I turn off the ac or the lights and the wipers come on for one sweep then stop. Anyone have any thoughts why?

    power window relay mod

    So is your relay kit plug and play? What all do I need to do to install it? Is the auto down an option for a stock power window setup? I lubed everything up and it's still slow. If your setup is plug and play I need one lol.

    Dana 3/4 vs 1 ton?

    It will have one or the other style hub. In 71' I believe they were the big hub, but that was a long time ago. Until you put eyes on it this is all speculation. I've seen 10 bolts with big hubs. I bought a 72' d44 and it had little hubs. Get your hands on it and we'll identify it for you.

    Dana 3/4 vs 1 ton?

    Actually the spindles are the same and you can get bearings at rockauto or lmc. The inner race that rides on the spindle is the same diameter. I have a set of each kind of hub and have switched back and forth without issue. Swapping the spindle won't change anything. If you have a set of newer...
