Nothing yet. :) back burner project ever since wheat harvest hit, I did get the 95 GMC K2500 back on the road (Genuine Bosch new injectors and AC Delco 60G glow plugs, new valley hoses, FTB, low mile GM8, and new batteries and ALL battery cables with the bolt mod, cranks sooo much better.
Then...
I picked up a GM set for 80 bucks off Amazon, I threw my back out earlier and am still recovering, so no door man-handling for now, hopefully can get them installed before too long.
I would definitely send them back if you have the option to.
Normally I am a big GM/ Delco OE parts fan, but it seems they take the cheap route on suppliers for alot of the 6.5L fuel system. Much better off to get a set of new Bosch from Leroy.
Is the EGR system still intact, even though the vac pump is gone? If so, need to delete that crap, I "think" but dont know, that the EGR valve needs vac to hold shut, so if there is no vac its always sucking exhaust.

Any more input on this? Looking at a 5521S and its was a no-go from the start for the owner. He paid 1200 and is accepting offers. I am debating about offering 200 bucks. I think he will take it if I do...
I dont always use 4wd, but when I do, Its once a year or so, and it usually ends up in me being frame deep with false trust in the abilities of a transfer case equipped vehicle... :)

Got a buddy with a 17 with the manual that loves it, but probably not enough miles to know how it will do long term.
He is a hyper-miling freak that can squeeze some impressive numbers out of it. From Denver back here to KS its flat and downhill, I think one run with a decent tailwind he...
I cant get over the terrible mirrors. put them in front of the window! right now it looks like someone grafted mid 90s ford half ton mirrors onto something...
Hey all,
I drug home another one. :) 95 K3500 CCLB DRW 6.5L 5spd 4wd.
It has about 250K on it, story goes he was just driving along and it just shut off, never to start again. Owner claims to be a good mechanic and has had a few 6.5Ls over the years and claimed it has to be the IP
I cracked...
Yeah, still not a fan. :) The mirror situation is just a raging dumpster fire IMO. They look added on, especially with the black filler right above it.
I think GM got a bunch of rejected Ford engineers when they went broke in 08, and we are now seeing the fruits of their labor.
