    Cruise Control Linkage Needed for an 87 tbi

    From what I understand they don't make that part anymore so you would have to find a used one, best place is Ebay. Search GM Cruise Control Servo and several will pop up. Corvette, Buick and several other years and makes used the same one. I just got done rebuilding mine to get it to work again...

    18 or 20's

    Nice! thanks for the advice on the size. Definetly going with the 20"s. I Like the look of the roadsters. I looked at your build thread and noticed you went from the Torque Thrusters to the Ralleys to the US Mags. Was there something with each of the previous you disliked? I am trying to find...

    18 or 20's

    The 15's that I have on it now just dont do it justice. and dont want to big. a good compromise. The 20's look good but Im curious what the 17 or 18's look like.

    I got tired of following the troubleshooting guide after going about 3/4's the way thu it and finding nothing wrong... So I just replaced the distributor coil like was told earlier and also swapped the ICM just because I had the extra ones in a box. It Started... I wonder if the new (standard)...

    Ok, issue now. I took the old pigtail and got it spliced to temp work while waiting for the new one to come. Was seeing if I could get it to start. Now what I have is still no fuel thru the injectors. Got power to the red wire on both with key on on the injector harness plug, Test light...

    I sure hope so. I just installed the distributor back in with the new pickup coil and also noticed one of the (two) distributor cap bolts that hold it onto the distributor was stripped... re taped one size larger bolt and got it secured properly. That could of been amother issue as well... Only...

    Just pulled the distributor to replace the pickup trigger coil and noticed the ignition coil connector pig tail (black Connector) had a bad connection on the white wire. It was barely hanging on, I bent it and it came off.. So I think I may have found my issue or another issue that just happened...

    Mine just Cut out and died completly while my son was driving it today...Again.... The LED light connected to the coil stayed on when it happened. Now when I crank the engine the injectors will not spray fuel. Have verified the fuel pump(s) are working and the fuel Pump soleniod is clicking as...

    I drove it today for about an hour total, drove like a champ going to Lowes (30 minute drive). On the trip back it cut off twice, this time it felt like the injectors stopped pumping fuel?? 3/4 tank of gas, once at a stand still awaiting on a light and the other while driving, put it in neutral...

    I just replaced the passenger side tank because it leaked. About $300 to get that fixed, thats the tank, sending unit with pump etc. I replaced the transfer switch at the same time. but not a hard job. I have my son run that new tank just to illiminate the drivers side tank as the issue, which...

    The brake light on the dash does come on when I press the brakes hard then go off. I recently replaced the drum brakes on the rear and the front discs etc. I need to re bleed the brakes, I believe is what is causing this?? But its been braking fine and no leaks. It all happens well after its...

    Gotcha, I got wrong info from a mechanic friend that said 87' tbi had a low oil safety that would shut the fuel pump off. The shut off of the engine while driving only happens when driving, not while idling... This is so random its frustrating... Ive seen other posts of the same issue with the...

    Ricko ~ I will add this & let you know. What would the light going out signal? Also is there a way to bypass all the safety shut off stuff? I know the oil switch controls the fuel pump to shut off if it goes below 3psi or something like that. Id like to bypass that to see if thats the issue. the...

    **Update** - it has been two days since replacing the ignition distributor Pickup as recommended (had to remove distributor & take apart to replace, very easy to do). It has not died while driving. It could have been the pigtail from the coil to the ICM that one of the connections was hanging on...

    Another Speedometer Question I know.. But couldnt find an solution

    Just installed the 40+ gear housing and ended with the 42 tooth gear to adjust the speedo being off by the 10mph. Its now about 1mph faster then what a gps says. Ive determined for my application, that each gear increase corrected the speed by 1.5 mph. So with the 36 tooth it was 10 mph fast...
