    Raising the truck, Looking for input on new rims

    Ahh well now thats interesting. I know they say I will be able to run up to 35" tires so with an 18 that may look good. Now to find some wheels

    Raising the truck, Looking for input on new rims

    Thats what i have heard. 20's are a maybe, sorta like going to a super single... But I do know its gonna cost 19.5's are a thought. Steel rims are easy as teh chev grumman bolt on directly. 18's are still not as common 17's are the best opt for your buck as all the new trucks run them so tires...

    Super "B" turbo install

    Just reading this and admiring the pics/work you have done (looks awsome btw) one thing come to mind though. Having the battery so close to the tank and exhaust is umm a bit riske isnt it?

    Raising the truck, Looking for input on new rims

    Its all stock still. Waiting for the lift kit to arrive and then will be putting it in. 16" on it now but am thinking 19.5's or possibly 20's

    lift kit

    Personally I am not a fan of turning the keys. I too have a 94 K3500 and opted for a 6" Tuff Country lift kit.

    Raising the truck, Looking for input on new rims

    Okay so the old gal has proved herself 110% reaching 1.3m km on her I have decided to take the plunge and start having fun with her. Started out with all new lights (LEDs, HDs, and new tails) working to wards going all smoked lens. Ordered a 6" tuff country lift, waiting on it. Thats...

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    NVW for an Albertan you actually know something...lol ALLLTHOUGH that said most 94's didnt have a strainer or anti-theft in the fuel filler. If you are on good terms with the local gas station or maybe you can get some at the local auto store you can try to get some water paste. Its used...

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    If your plugs are working and you have pressure at the fuel filter then it is between the fuel filter and the engine. Whats the temp like where you are? How much fuel do you have in your tank? Have you tested the fuel for water?

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    I dont know if all of them or at least the 2500's preheat the fuel can as mine does. Its not exactly ideal but leaving the ign on for 5-10 mins on my truck and you can barely touch the fuel filter canister. This I am sure helps withthe starting process especially well in cold weather

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    Okay, I am a fan of trying to test things without spending any money. I hate buying parts to find out the old one worked and the new one really isnt needed but now that I have installed it I cant return it. The truck isnt drivable, so taking the inner wheel fenders off is not really a big...

    Truck won't start, hot or cold.

    Another thiing I have seen happen is also the ign key could be the culprit. When the power dies out on you have you touched the key at all. try to wiggle it around and slightly turn it (not as far as to recycle it to the next/previous stage). I have had a few vehicles where that was the issue.

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    If you read a lil further back he said the previous owner used either to start it fairly often. My bad, its a 1/4 inch line not a 1/3 inch line I meant to say which is gonna cost at most a cpl bucks. again it will demonstate if the IP is at least pushing any fuel through I agree about the...

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    As I sugested, take a 1/3 inch clear line about 6 feet long undo a fuel line at the injector, put the clear line over the fuel line end and run the other end into a container. try cranking the truck a few times and you should have fuel in the bucket/cup if you dont then its you need to do that...

    you posted while I was so okay the lift is working... good stuff Yes the IP do wear out..how many miles? When was it last serviced?

    94 2500 6.5 turbo won't start

    Is it a standard or Automatic? I strongly advise against any starter aids....scarey sh^t Crank the engine several times and then quickly loosen your fuel cap, if you hear a loud hiss (air being sucked in) if you hear it then thats a for sure your lift pump is working and also a potential...

    bleeding brakes help?

    Look for the high spots in the system/lines and then find the nearest downstream fitting. Crack the fitting but not enough to open. Then have pressure applied to the system open slowly till fluid comes out and then quickly close before you loose pressure. Usually very slight opening will work...
