Cambo isn't around here anymore. I think he got out of the Rover game a few years back. That motor has been in my truck for the last six-seven years now. I'm having similar issues and just like what was wrong with Cambo's truck, there's a vacuum leak and leaky injectors. He gave up and sold me...

Dammit Cameron! After eight years this idle issue followed your motor into my 95. I'm a two-foot driver now too. Same symptoms, right down to fuel pressure readings, different EMS and engine was completely rebuilt in 2008. I suspect an intake gasket leak, picking up a gauge tonight, but won't...

14cux truck? If so, I need a maf shipped to 95628.

Throttle pot, that is. Has anyone had any luck finding a common TPS that has the same mounting specs as the err2263? Any 110° three wire 5v pot should work, it's just a matter of sitting down with a pile of them and finding one that can be made to fit. The stupid prices asked for these obsolete...

My wife fixed my truck. By fixing my truck, I mean taking the edge off of my stupidity by coming home, pouring me a cocktail and unwinding some of my stress. I'm ashamed to admit but do so for the sake of completeness, that #3 and #6 were swapped. My dizzy is rotated about 25° off the diagram in...

I know right? My helper pretty much just stood around smoking while I got dirty. At least I didn't have to hoof it to the parts store. I found TDC by putting a compression tester on #1, routing it down to where I could see while laying on my back cranking the engine over by hand from...

Got a CEL with code 40 showing on my display the other day during a long climb over Pacheco Pass, never felt the misfire. Reset the CEL and it didn't pop for the rest of the trip. Got home, pulled cap and rotor, wear on the rotor wasn't outrageous and the contacts weren't terribly scored, but I...

Thanks for the leads Robert, having a part name and part number makes all the difference in the world. Trying to look up parts based on a casting number is always frustrating and nearly always futile. I suspected that these would be available, given that they seem to be designed to snap before...

Checking around the wreckers locally was a waste of time. Every dismantler had already sold every keyed door handle that came into the yard. Every single one mentioned that the frequency of broken locks is increasing which is why they're hard to come by. I found one in Kentucky, it's being...

Used the key to lock the truck this morning and something snapped, causing the key to rotate without engage the lock mechanism. The key is stuck in the door and my spare is with my wife, 30 miles away. I haven't torn into it yet, I'm sans tools at the moment, but I know it's the plastic lock...

You really told him. Congratulations! How does it feel to win a fight with a retard?

PO of my truck seized the engine trying this stunt. I don't recommend it.

That worked real well for California. Term limits imposed sense of urgency on freshman and sophomore legislators to push through "landmark" legislation every term since they have such a short time within which to make their mark. We no longer have statesmen in our legislature, just a rotating...

Drop a diesel in it.

Rick, I thought gators had thicker skin than that. Pick up a copy of RAVE. Dweb is for getting answers that can't be found there, like "Why do I hear sloshing water in my dash?" or "What am best oil?", you know, the important ones. In all seriousness, these guys have all the patience in the...

I use the cheapest closed cell version of these I could find in my 95. I also overlaid the foam with sound-deadening mats to hold it all together. My loud exhaust isn't as loud inside anymore. Protip: If you have jump seats, use your old padding as a pattern to cut out the voids where the...

Does your block have a serial number? The block I rebuilt had no stamped numbers anywhere, only a casting number. The original motor had a milled boss near the front that looked like a good spot for a stamp, but didn't have one either.

I think the great clubs all have one thing in common, excellent outreach to new members. The one thing all terrible clubs have in common is insular attitudes and cliquish behavior. Clubs that attempt to cover too large a geographic area usually do poorly as do clubs that only exist in someone's...

I have a kodiak. I like it. Edit: I also forgot how slow this section is and didn't notice the date. Which one did you buy?

2000rds? You need to stock up! I go through that in a weekend and I live in California, the land of limp-wristed gun haters.
