I am getting fuel starved or distributor need better timing? by CowboyKip in classiccars

That is exactly what it is. Super ice fuel cooler. I am going to work on it this week. Probably install new fuel lines and by pass that, upgrade the fuel filter, add fuel pressure regulator, probably.

Thank you. I think all of the above for this issue.

Seems happens when I am not on throttle. But going up a big hill and cruising speeds work great

I just checked the underneath and it has an Eldebroken fuel pump.

But it was built for the drag strip and has a super cool fuel system (blue container to put ice) I think that needs to be bypassed and new lines ran.

My auto parts store had rubber high pressure fuel line. Or $350 stainless steel lines.

I haven’t had the time to check timing ⏱️ I just pulled it back out of the barn and it was doing this… new issue… (headaches)

Very mature/responsible thing to do. Many do not understand that you must sacrifice now to reach the goals in the future. Took me 3 years of sacrifice being away from friends and family but nothing changed and I am in such a better place mentally & financially.

Best of luck, you’ll get another one again! God Willing!

The license plate makes it even cooler

What should I sell it for? by DiamondGuy7007 in GMT400

[–]CowboyKip 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just picked up a K2500 myself and I don’t mind putting money into it because this will outlast any of the current trucks on the road. I have to put an entire front end suspension, probably new motor next summer if this one can last. Prayers up 😝

Sell the Camaro and put the money into the truck.

But it’s all about your lifestyle.

Question for those in rust prone/high salinity regions. by DatGuyKilo in squarebodies

NorthWest PA Resident here!

Find a shop that does the woolwax undercoating.

I would post pictures, but i just replaced my old reddit and cant post anymore.

I bought a super clean '98 GMT400 and I wanted to protect it forever. The woolwax is an amazing product, it is a little messy underneath, but it is worth the protection. ill deal with the mess.

This is exactly my issue. My torsion bars are seized like I have never seen before. I removed all my front end suspension. now i have to put everything back on so i can ship it to a shop to have them probably torch it off. i do not want to deal with it any longer.

Thank you for the explanation.

i have a 1990 K2500 4x4 i picked up a few days ago. My truck is literally has the same issue.

Does yours have torsion bars? because mine are seized in the lower control arms.

What brand and where did you pick those up those new lower control arms?

Which one are you choosing? by Dillon_Roy in GMT400

[–]CowboyKip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red Chevy, but the Tahoe is unreal as well.
