    Under-pad replacement suggestions?

    When I spilt a 32:1 mix on the rear floor of a WRX, I cleaned it up with baking soda. It did an ok job of cleaning up the stain and got rid of the odor.

    Is there any reason why swapping the working gauge with the "non working" gauge to check if the problem moves with the gauge or stays with the truck? Kinda a run on sentance.

    Traction Aid for 77 K10

    I vote for dedicated winter/snow tires. I bought a set of "Claws" from TreadWright tire for my 2005 Sierra 1500. I never got stuck during "mud season" or plowing the dirt driveway which is steep in parts. On the minus side they took a lot of weights to balance and are noisy on pavement.

    no electrical power

    First disconnect the battery, then with a multi-meter probe each side of the fusible link to check for continuity. There will be hotness to the starter with the battery connected.

    That ladder device might work with some square tubing and welding. I installed one on the outer "C" channel of a small dump body. The ladder slid between the frame and dump body when stored.

    You will need a different converter and governor with a 6.2 diesel to gas swap. Not that rare, I've had several, think CUCV's.
