    GMT400 Turn Signal Housing Trim Ring

    How many of you folks ever experience the signal housings cracking or breaking at the screw holes on these rigs? weather it's due to age or fitment, I have broken my fair share of them! On some of the fancier rigs you sometimes find those have a steel chrome trim ring which helps with this but...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    I may end up doing that later on anyway. decided to go ahead and put the front end back together. tested the horns out mid morning and they sounded the same as before, so I need to replace them. I didn't put them back in their factory location, instead I left them out and routed the wires...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Started toying with my 95 again tonight after work. still have the front grille off and the brush guard just hanging from the frame. I started bolting the trans and engine oil coolers back in place along with the brace for the hood latch. then it hit me... my horns sound pitiful! still has...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    I still feel like those are the short body ones. but tbh I think there is no difference between the two other than length. it's only a 1/4" height difference so you might have to massage the IP lines if anything. chances are your lines will fit just fine due to when it rolled off the...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    I think Will was referring to the GM factory turbos that mainly come on the 6.5's didn't you have a banks turbo kit on yours? preventive measures on checking the health of a turbo: remove the intake boot to access the impeller, with the engine OFF, grab hold of the center nut that holds...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Honestly idk the difference other than the body length. it's the precups in the head that make the difference between turbo and non turbo. Will knows more about that part. iirc the amount of fuel isn't controlled by the injector, it's controlled by the IP so you should be good.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    I think they should work just fine.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    on the 6.2 block I have they both fit just fine. but then again there is a long body one that has coarse threads. @Will L. your a DB2 guru, how can one tell visually which one he has vs what will fit and work best in Jeremy's blazer. I think the best option would be to carefully remove...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Being you have a turbo, I would go with the short ones, they are designed for turbo use. others can chime in on what is best for your setup.

    94 gmc 6.5 turbo deisel sputtering

    Yup, but that's only on the short steel lines coming off the IP going to each injector. that's low pressure compared to the newer diesels that produce upwards around 20k to 30k PSI !

    94 gmc 6.5 turbo deisel sputtering

    the bubble fare I mentioned is simply to give something for the rubber fuel hose grip when you slip it over the line and clamp it. this way it won't push off the steel line under pressure. the LP should only be pushing 8-14 PSI up to the IP.. the steel lines from the IP to the each of the...

    94 gmc 6.5 turbo deisel sputtering

    the vacuum hose should run from the pot on the turbo over to a small solenoid located on top of the drivers side valve cover, then from there direct to the vacuum pump. if you have an EGR then there will be two of those solenoids, one for the turbo and one for the EGR. trace those hoses to...

    94 gmc 6.5 turbo deisel sputtering

    Be sure to get the clear tubing installed on the IP return too. I would do this before trying to pull apart anything fuel related or installing filters. also if you engine is fully electronic, (no real throttle cables to the IP) you will have a vacuum operated waste gate on the turbo, there...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Quench means heat it red hot then quickly submerge in cool water.

    94 gmc 6.5 turbo deisel sputtering

    If your are ok with buying online here are a couple of links. keep in mind with amazon, they do not honor the full warranty period but supposedly you can get that direct from AC Delco by this seller only, I have not confirmed this. Now Summit Racing on the other hand will honor warranties...

    Have your son sign up here on the forum and join in on the fun! if he needs help we can all chime to assist too. Hope the photos help. even better if he's got a mirror on a stick and a good camera with good lighting, he can try looking on the under side of the injectors for a part number...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Here are more pics. these are the short body injectors, take note of my index finger barley under the body nut against the head on the #1. also note the height of the head bolt to the injector body nut. a long body injector would sit about 1/4" higher than these. the top section of the...

    Looks to me like there the short body injectors. I will take some more pics referencing them similar to how your camera is being held.
