    '85 siverado stiff accelerator pedal

    Hey, I've got an '85 silverado K10 with a 350ci with 700r4. Ever since I've had the truck the gas pedal has been stiff. I've pulled accelerator cable off the carburator and it moves pretty freely. I"ve changed return springs as well. I pulled the detent cable from trans by hand and it was very...

    LMC is evil..

    Finally, folks think the same way I do. But, they (LMC) has certain components that others do not. When I need something, the first thing I do is look in my classic industries and brothers catalogues. If they dont' have what I need, then I go get screwed.

    Fuel gauge (dual tanks)

    After diving head 1st into this issue, I don't think it should matter if the wires are cut back on the one side. Once that solenoid is switched to the other side(working side), it should only be measuring resistance on that side.

    Thanks can you me tell exactly where its at on the truck? I've been underneath the truck. I see a black wire bolted to the tank. Did you remove the bed to get to your connections?

    Since my last post, the left side quit working as well. Its sits directly at 3 o'clock. When I shut the truck off, it goes to full. When turn to key, the gauge goes to 3 o'clock.
