    Engine won't get up to temp

    Remember the first thing I saw when I hitched in 1972 to Fairbanks..A guy and a gal duken it out in a canal close to a tavern, and the fire dept having a water war with there trucks. Think it might have been the sunshine.

    Rear Leaf Load Rating Question

    Killian, grind a radius on each spring where is rides on the next spring so that is rides smoothly and doesn't "dig in the the lower spring. If the lowers have a small groove, grind that out. I use teflon between, made a HUGE difference as my springs were really gouged.

    Rear Brake Options 87

    What rear-end does the R10 have? 73 FF 14. I did drums, because I could get them local ie. fast so went that route. I like the simplicity and weight reduction of discs. HOWEVER, the FF 14 has three different (at least) factory braking setups. Mine is the smallest 11X2., or close. There is a 13...

    First time replacing intake manifold gaskets

    Eric is right on. Finger in #1 cylinder, until you feel air pressure which means the piton is coming up on the power stroke/ TDC. Line the pointer, up with the TDC mark. Pull the cap and marks- a- lot or ink pen cap where rotor is pointing, that is #1. mark the dist with a center punch dot...

    03 Trailblazer Build.

    I have been watching this engine for a while, lots of youtube, I think it is awesome. I ran six cylinders more then any other engine in m y lifetime, cause I was stuck on the 47-54 trucks. I have swapped numerous V8's in them, this would be killer. If you just could use like 1.75 rockers on the...

    To rebuild or not to rebuild (SM 465)

    I have had to rebuild mine a few times, but for an International Loadstar. Pretty simple, nice that the stick comes off so easy so you can drop it out. I have one hooked to a 205 setting out on the back 40...I like the newer transmissions better. That design replaced the 421? which came in the...

    Stripped bolts in hub assembly

    I would drill and tap to the next size, stay with whatever the thread pitch was, coarse or fine. I'm not quite sure what you are talking about specifically, if it is high stress thread it, if low stress, Like Rick said, Helicoil (good), Keen Sert thick series, (better).

    starter rebuilding - advice needed

    Hey rob, I didn't read everything but I have built lots of starters, really easy, mostly cleanup. However on occasion, the armature will need to be turned as it is grooved where the brushes ride, then the grooves will need cleaned no biggie, just a careful scraper job. Also you may consider...

    I'm sure it's an age old question, K 20 ride quality improvements.

    My wife's 2500GMC rides rougher then my K20 with e rated tires. If you are not going to haul much weight, just take a leaf out, have done this with other trucks and it helps, Also if you are ambitious, pull each spring pak and radius the ends so they slide smoother, if the upper spring has wore...

    86 6.2 diesel crank no start

    Also, when you first turn on the key, you will here a click which is the glow plug controller, locater on drivers side rear of engine. I had to replace mine. Also if your block heater is not working, replace it, had to do that to, not a terribly job.

    350 backfiring from carb, stalls under load

    What Eric said...Backfiring through the carb can be caused by several things, but in this instance, probably a lean condition caused by a leak. You said you messed with timing...backfiring through the carb could also mean your intake valve is still open when it fires on the power stroke, blowing...
