    Random piece in my oil pan

    So a little while back when I did my timing chain replacement I had to drop the oil pan and replace the gasket while I was at it. While I was in there I found this small plastic piece in the bottom of the pan with some metal "shims" with a slot in them. Seems they stack together and fit over...

    Old truck hates the cold I guess

    Alright I checked the fuel pressure just now sitting in front of O'Reillys. Key on its sitting at 29lbs and started its sitting right at 50lbs. The 50 sounds about right bit I would think it would have more with the key on as thats its way of priming the system correct?

    Is there any real difference between rough country 3" lift and 2.5" leveling kit?

    Its 3" in the front 2" in the back. I've talked to a sales guy cuz I was trying to buy just the stuff that the 3" kit has that the 2.5 doesn't. Shocks are the same, uses the same 2" block in the back. Just has springs instead of spacers and comes with control arms and drop brackets for the sway bar.

    T-body is clean and IAC is new. Just did the plenum kit and change a bunch of stuff while I was at it. Plugs, wires, cap n rotor, and the timing chain. Will post fuel pressure soon as u get a gage. Tomorrow if the old lady is nice to me but maybe Thursday when I get paid

    I have the 2.5 on mine I liked it when I got it but now I wish I would have saved n got the 3 to have the longer control arms and the drop brackets for the sway bar. With the 10plys I got on here it does ride pretty rough, shocks are good but pretty stiff!

    Old truck hates the cold I guess

    Cold engine causing high idle?

    What's the reason to not adjust it? I am thinking that the previous owner may have jacked with it trying to solve some of the problems I have fixed since getting it....or hell I may have done it one drunk night working on it and forgot lol never can tell sometimes. It does run good now tho...

    Cold engine causing high idle?

    No codes being thrown according to my torque app and didn't think the throttle had an adjustment on these trucks? I will look now tho to be sure. Of the two temp sensors one has 1 wire the other has 2. The one with 1 wire is the PCM correct? If so I just changed it (bwd part) i am going to...

    Cold engine causing high idle?

    Hello folks first post here. First I'd like to thank all of you for The wealth of knowledge I've found here as its help me a lot since i bought this truck a couple of years ago.
