Like the title says, the rear defrost only works on the P/S barn door. I cleaned the door pins on both sides thinking it may have a bad connection, but still only one side works. What can I check to figure this out? 1997 Sub barn doors.

Coming home from a camping trip through rolling hills that had the Burb working hard on the way there, and got into a 20-30mph headwind. It was all she would do towing that sail to maintain 50-55 mph on the hills, sustaining 215*F ECT, 220* spikes (reported via ScanGauge), sustained EGTs of...

I want/need to swap radios in my 97 Suburban. For some reason the clock resets to 1:00 each time I turn the ignition on, and it's missing knobs. I have access to stock radios at the tow yard I work at, but we don't have any GM truck radios on hand. So on to my question - Will any factory GM...

My 96 sold Tuesday, so I was finally able to go pick up the 97 6.5 Burb my buddy has had on the back burner for me. He used it to commute until his job changed, and then it sat for a couple years as an extra vehicle, being driven once or twice a month. Finally got tired of seeing it sit and...

My pickup is probably going to sell tomorrow, so I'll be picking up my new to me 6.5 Sub as soon as I can. (Check this thread on DP for info: http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=433407&highlight=) I have the original set of injectors from the 96 somewhere (152k on them), so I...

My 96 started a random fishbite kind of thing this week on decel when I push in the clutch to shift. It seems to happen more if I'm revving high (2500-3000) and then clutch. It is acting like the TPS is sticking if it had one, but does it randomly. I replaced the FSD (bumper mounted) with a...

Pulled home a 'new' travel trailer for the family last week. It's a 87 Coachmen Coventry 25' bunkhouse. We have 3 small kids and immediately loved the floorplan in this trailer. They each have their own bed and we still have plenty of living space. I'll post interior pics later tonight, the...

I installed my new Walking J/KOJO tuned ECM this afternoon, and the truck performance is outstanding! I am having an issue with DTCs though. I did the KOKO procedure as advised by Patrick, no problems there. I am getting a P1643 code, which on my scanner is a Fuel Pump Control Circuit fault...

I did the 98+ water pump upgrade recently on my 96, reused the single t'stat crossover with a AC Delco 195* thermostat. I also removed the radiator and flushed 14 years of farm dirt out. Since I did this, the operating temp seems to fluctuate between 185-195 on the gauge. I can watch the...

I posted this over on the other "place" but I figured I should post it here as well to get some other opinions. 96 K2500 "F" code NV4500. Clutch replaced ~5k ago by PO. The other day as I was turning a corner and letting the clutch out, the transfer case popped into neutral. I didn't think...

Finally completed several projects I've been slowly working on the last few weeks. 1) My oil cooler lines were leaking from the crimp, and I had band-aid fixed them with compression fittings and new flex hose, but one of the !@#$% ferrules started leaking again. I decided heck with it and...

96 K2500 NV4500. The PO of my truck replaced the clutch, but either forgot or didn't want to put the boot gasket back in. As a result, I get a lot of road and engine noise coming up from the boot. It is just a matter of pulling it up from the floor, or is it fastened down somehow? Just...

I've been doing some heavy reading on here and the other "place" for a while now, figured I better post up some info and pics of the truck. I picked it up on eBay before Christmas, and love it so far. It's a bit tight for our family of 5, but finding a crew cab 4x4 SRW in my price range...
