Thanks for the explanations! I forgot to charge my camera over the weekend so I dont have any pics today but I dont really need any to eplain todays progress. First thing I did was to pop in the new GPs. 6 are new, one I couldnt get too because I already clamped on the the downpipe and its...

the solenoid is under a cover? I thought it was just right on top, you unscrew it and thats it. Maybe im not following you correctly

Cool, I will remove the solenoid to inspect it. I hope to get lucky and find its just "stuck". the rear brake lines were just replaced. from the MC all the way to the back and along the axle and wheel hydralics. The fronts look fine.

WOW so much info on this site. Looks like I might as well just print all of this thread and take it with me tomorrow. I appreciate the help and cant wait to get working tomorrow. I have not tested the LP flow yet, that will be the first thing I do tomorrow. As fopr testing injectors, who...

So is there a way to test it? Or should I just replace it? Is it the connector thats right on top of the IP with the 2 male space connectors poiting straight up? The 2 wire harness that plugs into looks like it go either way, I was just looking at that the other day.

And cheaper!!!

the engine

BTW, here is the truck that is being worked on. These pics were taken in the spring of 08 when I first bought it. I painted it black with a HVLP gun and a really dark black. I never painted before so its not as good as it could be but it was a fun process. The one pic with the bed up is the way...

I have another question. When I turn the key to turn the engine off, it stays running for about 4-5 seconds before turning off. Im figuring its a ground issue somewhere. Is that correct or is it likely something else?

OHHHHH I see, I will put that on the list to check tomorrow. Thanks for the clarification.

Yeah ill try that, I just dont want to yank on them too hard and damage the GP.

Cool, I will give it a shot. The 3 that I have replaced so far have come out real easy. Hopefully these will follow suit.

Thanks for the welcome, glad to be here. The support is great so far!!!!!!!!! The starter strap is still there but the one that also attaches to that same bolt that goes to the frame was shot. I replaced that one but not the starter strap since it wasnt broken or brittle. Should I just replace...

The wheel fender is out, I couldnt imagine doing this any other way. But the tube nuts.............They are VERY rusted on. Im not sure if Ill be able to get them off. Is that the only way to get to th GPs is to remove the tube?

Awesome, thanks!

ok cool, do you know how much its supposed to pump out? Or the pressure? I think I read about 3psi, is that correct? I have been trying to figure out the process in advancing the timing. I know it need a special timing deal to time it correctly but all I want to do is advance it a slight...

Oh yes, thats right! :mad2: Yeah I kinda want to replace the injectors but dont want to spend the money at the same time, LOL. They look to me like they are the originals only because they look old, ha. The truck had 118,000 miles before the speedo stopped working which is why I think they...

They work but it might be only the 3 new ones that I just replaced, it would smoke for 20 minutes after first starting it and that was during the summer too. The thing I dont get is how I can replace the ones on the passenger side in the middle. The ones with the tubes around them. I cant get...

Thats not the book I have/had. Thats the book that I need though! I think I will just buy that one since it looks to be a pretty valuable tool to keep around. I appreciate your earlier offer!! Sweet! Ill just ty it up and forget about it. Thanks for looking. After a little thought, I...

I havent driven the truck yet. I use it to tow my lawn care trailer so I dont use it during the winter. I will probably rerout the exhaust out the back or side. The wheel is already black since I painted it that color, maybe the exhaust will help keep it black! LOL Also, There is a hole on...
