    Clutch problems, advice needed!

    I started noticing that if I sat at a red light in gear with my foot on the clutch for any length of time, the clutch would slowly start to engauge. A week of this and then I noticed the pedal was low and it became increasingly difficult to engauge gears, espcially from neutral. Finally, I...

    COLD start...:)

    Well, it's -20*C right now and I have no block heater cord as of yet so I was a little concerned that the Burb wasn't gonna start. :eek: I just went out and after one failed attempt to stay running, it caught and is chugging merrily away right now. ):h Regardless, I'm buying a cord today when I...

    Temp Gauge not working.

    Ok, after I did my B/L I noticed my temp gauge quit working. I looked around and couldn't see any pinched or broken wires, but I'm pretty sure I damaged it when I lifted the truck. This thing has had the wiring harness in and out more times than I can count by the PO so I usually like to jump...

    Heater hose questions.

    The heater hose/pipe assembly coming from the crossover leaks if it is moved a little bit. I'd like to replace it with a barb fitting and regular heater hose. I see there is threads in the crossover, can I buy a threaded barb fitting to screw in there? What size threads to what size barb do I...

    Temp sensor question

    My temperature gauge isn't working. I am betting it's a wiring problem but want to rule out the sensor first. Can a sensor be tested? Thanks, Bill

    Issues continue...

    Ok, I'm still working on my '95 Burb. When I brought it home I seized the NV4500. It was dry from oil and I didn't know, so it seized up doing 55MPH. I brought it to a friend and he tore it down and replaced everything that was needed and put it back together. I installed it and once...

    Ground Issues?

    My temp gauge isn't working. It worked before I installed the 3" body lift. My voltage gauge reads way too low, but it always did.(10v v.s. 14.2 measured at battery) My fuel gauge sometimes jumps around. My glowplug light does not come on, but never did. I think I have a ground issue but...

    4500 oil????

    I just got my NV4500 back and am installing it in the 'Burb this week. What oil do I need for it? Pretty much the only thing left after that is to get a K&N. After the 3" bodylift, I can't get my stock aircleaner setup to work at all. I tried a bunch of different things to make something...

    My 'Burb

    Well, here it is. It's a '95 and now has a 3" body lift and I put a set of 36X14.5 Ground Hawgs on the passenger's side just to see how it would look. They *almost* fit. With some trimming and cranking they would fit no problem. I'll end up running 33X12.5's when I'm done. The 5 speed is out...

    Fixed a no run problem...kinda

    So, a friend calls me up and says his '99 6.5 won't stay running. I go over and sure enough, it fires and dies right away. We pop the hood and I start to look around. I grab the fuel shutoff solinoid to feel if it is moving with the key. It is, but it feels like it's very loose. We take off...

    New to me...:)

    I finally bought the Burb I have wanted for many years! It was owned by a friend of mine and has been put through a lot, but it runs and drives really good. The problem with it is the interior and some electrical issues. The interior is in pieces. He has been collecting the parts to...

    Door Lock Problems.

    I know this isn't diesel related, but I'll try anyways... I currently have a '99 Burb (Gas:rolleyes5: ) All of a sudden, the door lock fuse blew. I replaced it and it blew again. I disconnected the harness from every door and it still blows. :mad2: Any ideawhere the relay is so I can check...

    5 spd + Cruise control???

    Did GM ever offer the 6.5l with a 5 speed and cruise control? I hope to buy a '95 6.5 2500 'Burb. It is loaded but I don't *think* it has cruise. I have read before that you can put the stalk from a cruise equiped truck in and it will work. Anyone know about this? Thanks! Bill

    PMD replacement, now no fuel...

    a friend of mine recently replaced his PMD after some issues. It didn't come with a resistor. Now it won't start. As soon as I can, I'll fill out the check list asap, but in the mean time, will no resistor cause a nostart? TIA Bill
