    Problem: Heavy shudder upon braking

    Only thing I know can cause that is warped rotor. Jack it up, remove front tire/wheel. Hold a center punch real close to rotor and turn the rotor. See if the punch drags on the rotor. Could maybe also be created from an out of round rear braking drum.

    Get the hed checked out, check pushing rods for straight, new gaskets and run it. It is possible someone may have floated the valves and a couple pushing rods jumped track.

    Haynes book should be good enough. Haynes should tell You if the headbolts should be reusable, and if a sealant is needed on the threads when going back together.

    Get the book. Thats the advice that I give to everyone. An original OE overhaul/repair book is the best, but having a Haynes book setting there can also be mighty helpful as they sometimes shows short cuts that can be done without costing in damage. And, AFAIK, those head bolts are reusable.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    And if you use a bernzomatic torch to solder the leak, wet rags to keep the heat from spreading to other areas and loosening solder that dont need loosed.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Wire brush and sand it ti shiny clean. Solder flux and solder and tin it up real good. Then the solder will bond as long as there is no grease or oil on the tube. A soldering gun can doooh dat.

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

    WW reservoir was leaking. Motor/pump was working just fine. It was the motor grommet that was causing the leak. I replaced the entire assembly plus the motor/pump and the filler neck. If anyone is in need of this pay postage and it’ll be on its way. I even have the new grommets for it too. Just...

    I have had those small return hoses split several times. When one leaks, pull it offt, clipum back then as bad a time as it iz, install them small hose clamps. I’ve not had a one split after squirming the small clamps onnum hose ends.

    Aluma seal or bars leaks ? ? ? ?

    I looked at that copper/brass radiator for the BB enjun. Thought that was mighty impressive and would sure be a good edition, the extra radiator cap would be an added bonus. I also think that the brass and copper might provide better cooling capacity, but, I know I might be wrong on that too...

    Aluma seal or bars leaks ? ? ? ?

    Got the OE radiator installed. Put the aluminum rad in the box that the oriellys unit came in. Sealed it up. Checked all fluid levels then also remembered that the WW reservoir was leaking. Removed it from under the battery. I must have jiggled enough compknents that the pump grommet stopped...

    Tell us more about this truck. Does it have the DB2 injection pump ? ? ? ? If so there is possibly one wire that woukd cause the engine to die if there is a broke wire. That would be the wire that goes to the shut down solenoid on top of the IP(injection pump). Disconnect that wire from the...

    Forget what I posted except for the welcome to the forum. Rereading Your post and Your unit is a 1969. Best to determine which wire is broke and fix that wire.
