It's not easy to remove the rods. you have to remove the entire latch assy from the door. trust me I tried to get at them without pulling the latch LOL
removing an injector you need a special socket, a regular 30mm socket can possibly bend or break the return line connections. I have used a regular socket multiple times without an issue but you have to be very careful. they are torqued into the head at 50ft lbs. I will try and remember to...
This might also be whats going on with mine in the 93. video is disabled on it due to the parking brake wire, but grounding it didn't do anything.
not that I want to be watching any video's while driving LOL
when I replaced the inside door handles on my 95 even after the new handles were installed I noticed that the handle was maxing out on the stop before the door would unlatch. I ended up taking the rods out from the door and tweaking slightly on two of the bends using my bench vice and hammer...
post a pic of one of the injectors on the drivers side (easiest to get a close up of. I will look at my stash and see if I have both types one style is a long body the other is a shorter one. there should also be a number stamped on the outside of the body if you can get at it without...
I love watching those youtube videos of folks stripping these old rigs down and rebuilding from the ground up. One day I want to do this to my 93. on top of possibly converting it to a short bed step side. it would be the only 3500 crew cab short bed step side on this side of the US that...
iirc 2005 began the cylinder cancellation on 5.3's and 6.0's the 01-04 6.0's are a beast coupled to a 4l80 or 6l80 trans. but user be ware... all gm engines if this era have a design flaw. the oil pumps were installed behind the timing covers and driven by the crank snout. they are...
If your just using the under hood harness, you should be fine. I would de-pin the one for the ABS and put that one into the one your using so just in case you ever want the ABS to function. also without it, the light will be on in the dash too. on the 2000 one, some of the connectors that...
R152a is much safer than any of the flammable refrigerants and the molecules are larger than r12 or 134a. hence why you use less, also leaks slower if there is a leak. lower pressures and less drag on the compressor too!
I'm running the GM orange orifice tube which is 0.062 vs the factory...
I ended up re-using a piece of plastic I had originally cut from an old ice cream bucket, reshaping it to fit to cover the open gap on the right side.
recharged it using the R152a I had recovered from the system before I started and had to add a little more from a can I had, about 18 oz in...
Here is the install...
the condenser is a used one I pulled from the pick a part yard last year. had it in the garage all this time only because of the welded line wouldn't fit the threads on the condenser.
what do y'all think I should use to fill the open gaps up top and mainly on the...
Well this evening I started tearing into the 95 to attempt replacing the ac condenser. started with the brush guard, I figured out that I can remove the 4 bolts on the bumper and let it hang since the lower part is bolted to the frame. that gave me enough room to get the grille out. pulled...
buying new injectors nowadays is a crap shoot if you will get genuine Bosch nozzles or something made in china even when getting Bosch branded ones. what you want is the ones made in Germany, but most come from India unless it's a chineseium copy, but that's not saying India made ones are bad...
It also depends on which injectors both the engine and your k5 have. normally a 6.2 in that era used the long body injectors which can work, but iirc the thread connection for the IP lines could be different. also the long body injectors may or may not fit with turbo exhaust manifolds...
