    Cooling Upgrade Idea, want your thoughts

    I've read lots about higher flow pumps, bigger fans, fan clutches, ......... but I have yet to read where anyone has addressed the rear cylinder heat issue. Coolant enters the front of the block and goes out the front of the heads. How does the coolant ever move through the back of the block...

    GMTDScan Tech / IP Timing HELP!

    When doing Time Set, is it normal for the Actual Injection Timing to quickly jump around a lot? like between 2.5º and 4.5º I'm guessing, yes, if the timing chain is a little wooped

    GMTDScan Tech / IP Timing HELP!

    1st mistake, tried to do it when it's finally freezing here in S.E. Michigan, thinking I needed a new thermostat, and doing so with the engine temp under 170º If I need to move it, I will when I find/make a wrench to get at the passenger side nut. I'm going to see if I can get it started and...

    GMTDScan Tech / IP Timing HELP!

    Newbe here I bought this 94 k1500 w/ 228,000 miles a few weeks ago, it ran fine but started hard when cold, even if the block heater was plugged in. A little easier if I step on the accelerator pedal a little. A previous owner had told me the IP had been replaced along with a bunch of other...

    One more test to run, make a Windows 98 boot CD, beings that's the minimum system requirements for GMTDScan Tech, and see if it works By Monday I will have used my brothers Vista and the womans XP, if they all fail the cable is going back.

    GMTDScan Tech connecting problems.

    Win2k didn't work either, I sent the folks over at aldlcable, which is where I bought the cable from, an email. I've even tried using hyperterminal like their instruction say but I get nothing, I'm beginning to suspect the cable it's self. I've been using computers since the C64 (Commodore) even...

    GMTDScan Tech connecting problems.

    That's, Windows 7 isn't compatible, is what I'm thinking. I've even changed the properties to run the program in compatibility mode for older versions of Windows. I guess I'll dig out the 10 year old laptop running Win2k, install the software, drivers and give that a try. Thanks, Bill
