For sight seeing in Iowa you might want to visit the Amana Colonies. Old World setting with crafts, wine and textiles(Amana Woolen Mills). They have a very large campground up there as well. Amana is located about 10 miles north of I80 at,I believe, exit 225.
Exit 220 has a large factory...
FIXED!!!
It was the brake switch. Replaced it, but had to go to the stealer to get a new retainer clip that holds the rod in place that goes through the switch. What a PIA that retainer clip is; I loved to get ahold of the engineer that designed that thing.:mad2:

Yes, this is the oddball LT1 configuration (actually L99, known as the "baby"). It's a newer water pump with(obviously) new gaskets and no weeping present.
Fuel pressure is still around 43 psi and filter was changed with pump replacement. Where is the regulator?
Best guess for how long that they've been out is sometime after June of 2009. I wired in a plug for pulling my new-to-me fifth wheel and everything thing checked out at that time. I did this during my two week leave from a deployment to Iraq, so then the truck pretty much sat until November...

It is standard practice in the trucking industry to teach and test new students on automatics only. Lord help us.
You are supposed to have a licensed driver bring the equipment in. The test center used to turn a blind eye to unlicensed drivers bringing in big trucks and even motorcycles to...
Its been close to twenty years since I got mine, but back then the part of the test that sunk alot of testees was the pre-trip inspection. In Iowa, you have to do a pre-trip walk-around the truck before you go on the road test. Now, though, the testers allow the driver to carry a "cheat" card...
My 95 caprice with 4.3V8 does the above. It was running fine then had a slight delay when you put the accelerator to the floor; almost like a old 4-barrel carb would do. then the stumbling and stuttering started.
The fuel pump was only showing 5 psi so it was replaced...did not fix the...
