    Horn button on 1991 suburban

    No, I have just the old two spoke steering wheel with the rectangular horn button with the GMC logo on it. I’m guessing it just pops out but I want to make sure I don’t ruin the catch mechanism. Thanks, Dennis

    R4 to Sanden whith stock ac lines(for serpantine)

    Just did the sanden upgrade last month, I used the longer belt, New accumulator tank, air tube, and hoses. I had to cut a small piece of metal off my throttle body air cleaner mount and shift the air cleaner about 3/4 of an inch so the snorkel would clear the suction side hoes fitting. That R 4...

    Sanden compressor upgrade

    Yes Classic Auto Air is who I used, I guess you could get the sanden from a dealer, get New accumulator tank, hoses, and new air tube, get hoses, fittings and get them crimped. The kit came with two dogleg pieces of metal that bolt to existing pancake compressor mounting bracket.

    Sanden compressor upgrade

    Well I finally got my Sanden Ac compressor in the 91 suburban and it is soo quite! Blows very cold too, I would definitely recommend the upgrade if anyone is considering an upgrade, the classic auto air people were very helpful and got right back to me with answers.

    Hi, Can anyone help me out with the pass window on my 91suburban? The pass manual window jumps out of the front track when I roll it down a third of th way, the further it goes the more it goes out, it all started after I greased the sun gear and nylon rollers. Is it easy to take out that...

    Adding Cruise Control

    In addition, the only whole I had to drill was through the firewall under the steering column for the main harness grommet which contains the vacuum line and wiring loom.

    Adding Cruise Control

    I put an OEM cruise control in my 91 suburban from donor parts I picked up online and at a junkyard, I bought the wiring manual and bought the blinker stalk with the cruise control switch attached for about 39.00 , I believe the main harness that passes through the fire wall contains a vacuum...

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    Yes thanks, it runs perfect, a little better than before, the idle is perfectly even now, boy those twilights look great, I have one cracked lens so I though I would by a pair of them. I like the idea to buy them in a store Dtrain

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    timed it yesterday it was off a little , hard to get at that clamp bolt on the distributor, the advance wire on mine was on the driver side fire wall taped to the wiring harness plastic loom. Does any one know where I should get my taillights from? there are so many companies making repos I...

    84 electrical issue.

    I know this may not be related, but I had a ford escort with a trailer light harness that was spliced into my twilight harness which had the wires cut and was not active, it made my blinkers and twilights do crazy stuff.

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    I wound up buying a new complete distributor complete for 169.00 rather then replacing part after part. I am getting ready to time the engine and have to discount the wire on the pass side of dash, is that wire behind the glove box?

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    Ok, I’m back at the problem, I let the suburban idle and in about twenty minutes she shut down, no spark from plug wire, no spark from coil wire, I switched out coils with one that I know is good, it still did not run, I pulled the cap and the pick up coil looks real rusty on top. I am thinking...

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    Thanks for the ideas, I’m away but I will look for at cap first, just the way it dies leads me to spark or coil, there is no stumble or sputter it cuts off sharp. I thought maybe the pump got hot to. No codes I guess is common with OBD1 cars, not too sophisticated. Thanks again to all, I will...

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    I should have but is really hot out so I walked back and got my other car and when I got back it started right up, I should check electrical because it was such a clean shut off, no stumble or sputtering, I just ran it for 20 minutes and no problem something must be getting tooo hot and failing

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    I put a new coil in about two years ago but it turned out to be bad brand new ignition wires. So I think the ignition may be good unless the ig module is failing

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    No Im not, the engine may have quit first, It just seemed like there was no fuel or spark, an immediate cut off, I immediately looked at my gas gauge to check but I had a half a tank. I guess I will just run it in the driveway until it stops. I wanted to hook up a fuel pressure gauge but it has...

    91 Suburban service engine light came on and engine stopped

    Hi, I left the ignition on without starting the car and it just keeps flashing the 1 2 code, I'm wondering if I should turn the engine on but I guess the ses would not flash. my guess is the computer did not store the code. Dtrain
