Well, I tried playing with it this morn and actually got it open. After removing several parts/components, I figured out wotz wrong. I didnt remove glass or regulator mechanism, and therein lies the problem. Something is causing the window to not go all-the-ways down. I think in the guide tracks...

The tailgate window will not go all the way down, and the tailgate will not open. I know theres linkage to prevent it from opening, (I guess to protect the glass), I cannot get inside the gate to see whats wrong. HELP!! (The glass [at center] stays about 1'' above the rubber seal...

Picked up an old brass radiator for '82 '84 '85 (+ more?) from '85 6.2 suburban. What procedure to go through to test it? Another is available possibly

Turns out I didnt run out of fuel. I Thought that before the replacing filter, I would figger out why it got air in it. In the procedure, (was much easier than expected!) cranking for about 5-6 seconds, I got plenty of fuel, (maybe one cup). closed bleed valve, sucker started right up! Now I...

I ran my '84 Blazer 6.2 out of fuel. I will replace the fuel filter before doing this. Is there an easy way to bleed the system after filter change??? I have the Helms book, have not looked yet. (been years since last change). Since retirement, I drive it prolly about 1,000 mi yearly, same my MB...

I have the brand "Diesel KIKI" nozzles in my '84 Blazer since about 20+ years ago (retired 12 yrs ago). I believe they are licensed from Bosch. I know they're made in Japan, 20 yrs ago anyway, , , , Never any issues, , , ,

I ran across an old brass radiator, it was just laying out on the ground! Whats best, take to radiator shop, test(?) at home? How would I even do that? -c-

I'll look into these suggestions, , , thanks!

GM does not sell these anymore,at least where I live. Cant find one in local wrecking yards either. A few years back I replaced mine with a (GM) aluminium one. It now leaks in the cooling (aluminum) part. Help!

'84 Blazer Diesel (<-shouldnt matter!) Lo-beams ok, toggle blinker/hi-low beams, NO lights! Both hi's out. I cant believe both burned out at once. Do the hi's have a seperate fuse? I'm thinking the switch. I'm too old to try looking at the fuse panel (75 years old yesterday, 23rd) How hard...

Years ago I lucked out, Bought an old Bacharach? tester at a yard sale for 5 bucks. Was a WWII 'Navy Stores' unit, needed the filter & the plastic cup (where fluid goes). What a score! As for the disks, well, there used to be a local 'Ecology' auto salvage yard nearby. This one had LOTS of...

I thought that at some point, they changed radiator design/shape/style. I know 82 83 84 85, maybe 86, are all the same. When did they change exterior body style? Did they change under-hood components also?

Thanks! Even truck junkyards around here are going by the wayside, , , ,

I replaced the radiator in my '84 diesel Blazer. The replacement radiator was an aluminum with plastic top & bottom. It has a leak about 6" below the top. It leaks out quickly to the leak, but stays there. Doesnt run hot at all. I stay on top of it at all times. The shop I got it from went outta...

Couldnt find an 'electrics' area, so here goes. '84 Blazer diesel, but that shouldnt matter. The fuel gauge stopped working. When key is on, gauge goes to 'full', turn off & it creeps towards empty. < Does it need power (un-blown fuse) to do this? How does one troubleshoot this? How does one...
