    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    I believe the unit you posted is for a gasser with TBI fuel injection. they all used an in-tank electric fuel pump. this I believe is what you need. this specifies a rear 31 gallon tank https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=14029525&cc=1061569&pt=4436&jsn=698

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Took the 95 out for a drive today. AC did as expected. blows around 60 from the vents sitting at idle but as soon as you start moving it drops down to around 48 degrees. not too shabby for a junkyard compressor and a quick n dirty flush. Oh yeah I almost forgot.. I was talking to my...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    since the pyrometer is an addon, depending on how it was installed, the ground might have been spliced into a wire and created a break at the splice. lots of folks use T taps which can cause loads of issues. could be a ground or power issue. also verify your getting power out of all the...

    the heat shield on mine is east to remove! it's an old 24oz tall boy can folded in half long ways and curved to fit LOL I only used one screw to affix it on the top of that bracket. ended up cutting off the lower section of that bracket off and left the upper part that has the screw holes.

    @MrMarty51 if you can get the heat shield removed, you should be able to get at the return lines without pulling the turbo. I managed to get at them with a pair of bent needle nose pliers from the top. pull the CDR and anything else in the way to gain access from the top side. it might even...

    hey everyone my name is is marc first time here

    Be sure you drop the pan and clean out any debris, fresh fluid and filter. a failed torque converter can destroy a trans in a hurry! the main issue swapping them from a gasser is the low RPM stall a diesel torque converter will have over a gasser. if the gasser is a 454 you should be find...

    Just for info, I did find out that other countries like Europe are moving to using R152A phasing out 134a. there is a decent amount of info on it online and here in the US you find it in cans of office keyboard duster. Harbor Freight sells them at $6 a can (10oz) and wally world sells 134a...

    Started working on the 95 today. I've been wanting to get the AC working for a while now, the black truck is getting really tired. ventured out to the pick a part yard to gather some interior parts for the wife's trailblazer and look for a decent compressor for my truck. found a compressor...

    Identify this tool please.

    That looks a lot like a stamping tool for leather making. could be to snaps or ring punch for leather.

    It's been a little while since I posted anything. It's been HOT and HUMID lately! it's time I get my brown truck driving again. been sitting for the last three or so months and haven't wanted to drive it due to the AC being out. I'm not quite ready to drop the 2 bills yet for a replacement...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Your us shift kit should be using some sort of TPS to know when to shift. SES light is on because the factory TCM/PCM is still connected. I would just pull the fuse to it since you have the aftermarket trans controller. on my truck, it uses a EZ-TCI controller. it has it's own TPS...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    are you still running the factory trans and trans controller? running a DB2 IP all the TPS does is send signal to the trans controller to tell it when and how to shift. you may or may not need to fix or replace the TPS. if you are running an aftermarket trans or have a older 700R4 that is...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    for a tach there should be a sensor atop of the engine behind the intake in the valley where on a gasser a distributor would go. that cam sensor provides an RPM signal to the PCM for the trans to shift. that is if you still have the factory trans. if you get a schematic for your truck it...

    Hey guys, I've been off for a little bit, but still around. just filled up the black truck with fuel this afternoon. Been driving it just about every day even with the worn out engine. funny thing is that my oil consumption has slowed to a crawl now. I really haven't opened the hood in...

    Here is the factory style kit off the jungle site. you won't need the gaskets but the hose and plugs are all pre-cut to length. https://www.amazon.com/Delphi-7135-274-Fuel-Injector-Installation/dp/B002M1D4PI

    WOW! I haven't been on here in a few days and look at all the excitement I missed!! in a pinch, go to home depot and get the small orangish color clear tubing I forget what size it is but it's in the plumbing section. it will push on without clamps and work for a while. iirc that much flow...
