I’ve written about this beast before. It’s been abandoned on my property for awhile. Like two years while it works its way thru probate (don’t ask).
Gas is bad I’m sure. But.
Battery was bad but we were able to jump it, start it and move it a like 100 feet to get another abandoned vehicle out...
Little by little I’m fixing things on this beast. It only has 134k on it. The drive train is in great shape but little things are failing.
I know on the trucks odd things can be in the same stream as the ABS module.
So what did I trigger by fixing this? The mode selector for the air needs...
Weather Tech here. They just simply work and look better than others I have tried. I file a “slope” on either end where the window coming up meets the defector For what its worth. I believe it takes some stress off the motor.
So it was the fuel pump. I went the hatch method cutting beyond the spot (drilled them out) welds, a harder way to go but safer in the long run, so I could come back and put short self tapping screw back in for strength-but short so they would not reach anything vital.
I also redid all the...
I’m right there. ACDelco on order. Hatch cut and ready. A bit of a PITA as I chose to cut it outside the spot welds thinking the underlying structure I can screw back into and have a solid closure.
anybody out there?
Okay what we know.
1) fuel filter changed
2) relays ok
3) all grounds cleaned (only lower connection on fuel pump ground)
4) KOEO fuel in rail but to weak to get a reading.
Next step is cut out a hatch and check upper fuel wiring? It’s the only way for me to adequately get...
Ok so the fuel gauge does work. I put it up to my tire stem and it moved freely. That doesn’t mean it is accurate of course. BUT it does mean the fuel pressure is too low to move the needle.
Whatever died, died without warning. Unless you consider the wonky fuel gauge a warning. It had always started flawlessly till then. Because of the wonky fuel gauge, I had not been running the tank low. Pounding the tank doesn’t do anything.
Relays are fine. I will try to check connections at...
I changed fuel filter just in case.
No one rents or loans a fuel pressure gauge here- must be some insurance thing.
There is some pressure there with KOEO. I bought a cheap pressure gauge and it doesn’t move the needle. Fuel pressure too weak? ****** cheap gauge? There is pass thru with the...
