84 c10 won't idle
You could have a dirty or bad needle & seat, causing the float to be too high & flooding the engine. You're probably washing cylinders if it's rich, better get that float set properly!- mtbadbob

What have you done to your square lately??
I seriously don't know how a person could miss a filter gasket still on the block. I always wipe the block clean before I screw on a new filter. Stevie Wonder wouldn't even do that... -

I have a brand-new set of 1 piece seals, I opened the drivers side before I realized that I had the 2 piece versions! Lmk if you want them -
Routing of blower switch wiring to firewall grommet?
Yes, they should be over the top. There are factory wire retainers up under the dash that should retain them and keep them supported. -
Show us your “Square Interior Pimpin”
Those seats look like they're out of a '90's GM Van. Looks like a stock GM pattern, they look super-plush! -
87 v-1500 wheels
What year of Burb are you thinking of? I put the '99-2010 GM Alloys on my V20 & they fit fine, just a little snug around the rear hubs but no spacers were needed of any sort.- mtbadbob

For Sale: 1973-74 Chevrolet C/K Grille
Thanks for the info! I thought I had read something about that, but I wasn't 100% sure. I just knew that 77 & up didn't have the engine displacement in them anymore. -
For Sale: 1973-74 Chevrolet C/K Grille
My buddy has a '73-'74 grille with a few small cracks, and the bowtie foil is delaminated on one end. Looks like mounting tabs are intact & in good condition. See pics for details. $300 OBO delivered & insured from Montana. -
3 inch rake after tuff country 4 inch lift.
It looks to me like something is amiss in the right rear, it's too high causing the inconsistent measurements on the other corners. Everything seated right over there???- mtbadbob

Parking Brake Light Not Coming On
12v stab tester to parking brake switch, should be 2 wires. Once switch is depress, it should open the circuit to send 12v power to light on dash. Test both wires in both the released position, and set position.- mtbadbob

Old77's 1989 S10 tinkering project
No, 1157 is dual element, I was thinking you possibly installed the single element 1156 and it wasn't allowed to do both functions.- mtbadbob

How much oil pressure is to much for a stock 350
I don't think my gauge is 100% accurate either. It acts like there's an electronic glitch as it'll jump up and almost peg out at 60 psi, and it looks like something is causing the jump. Maybe I'll get it figured out!- mtbadbob

Dash lights not working
They make kits so you never have to cut/alter a factory harness, all your splicing occurs on the radio side of the plug. It's way better than Okie-rigging your factory wiring, you're just asking for trouble.- mtbadbob
