    Identify electrical block

    With the ignition key in the run position, there should be power to at least one of the terminals of the harness, or switch when the harness is plugged into it. If possible, get a 12 volt source to the battery terminal of the switch, then activate the switch. If it then functions be looking at...

    1994 K3500 extended cab dually

    If the media quits blowing through the tip while blasting, place the tip firmly against the gloved had and pull the trigger. Than go back to blasting. The DOT had a similar cabinet and thats a mighty fine unit.

    To church and back home. With the couple of miles I put on the truck, then, this morning stepping up the idle to about 1800RPMs for at least a half an hour, then to Rosebud to church and returned. ODO read 72 miles and it took 5.5 gallons of No.1. I think I now have enough No.1 blended in so it...

    New batteries. Battery heater on passenger side. Opened the hood and that blanket is nice and warm. Turned the key to run, WTS lamp extinguished, twisted to start, it fired so fast I could not tell how fast the engine was spinning before it fired. Seems all the money spent is becoming worth...

    IDK if they are 78 month batteries. The tag says 30 month free replacement. Guess I’ll find out when I get to the Chevy dealer. Had the heat going on the batteries until just now. Chargers still going. They have drizzled down to less than 2 amps. I got a battery hydrometer and the multi meter...

    Batteries are in the garage, caps removed, cells are all iced over. Remove the blanket wraps and get some heat going on them. Old hair dryer and heat gun on low and at a distance. Looks like they already are thawing. Five minutes ago almost all the cells was iced over. Now its just one on each...

    New Optimizer Long Block

    I have maybe 300 miles on My engine and it starts and runs real good. Lots more power than the old enjun. But, I was mighty hesitant before installing it, about going with gapless rings and the timing keeper gear set.
