    Gas pouring out from underneath engine

    Thanks for the advice guys, I was reading it like I needed to do some special kind of start since all the plugs were disconnected.. Didn't see these posts until I started it up to get the gas out of the cylinders, gas did fly everywhere but I think I got it all out, just a side note, I did start...

    Gas pouring out from underneath engine

    I don't think anyone has tampered with my truck, what else could have caused this?.. It wasn't even driven the day this happened. It was just sitting and out of no where happened, I thought it might have something to do with the weather, it's been 100+ for the last couple of weeks..

    Gas pouring out from underneath engine

    So all of a sudden I notice a big pool of gas and an active drip coming from underneath my truck. It looks like it's coming from in between the engine and tranny, under the air cleaner was covered in gas a pooled in all the crevices.. I cleaned it all off and it's not pooling on top of the...

I get timing fixed, i see on the gun its at 16, so I go to a different smog shop and the timing is still coming up as off but all...

    Still leaking after repairs

    What's the cost for repair? Better to just leave as is? What about those additives like BlueDevil Rear Main Sealer? Do those really work?

    Still leaking after repairs

    So I just had my valve cover gaskets and tranny pan gaskets repaired but I'm still leaking, very minimal drip compared to what it was before I got the repairs. See picture attached, still wet but not sure what else is needed just from the visual. What does it look like to you guys? Sorry I'm not...

    Cutting out Cat and replacing with straight pipe

    Wanted to get some opinions on doing this to my truck, the spin tech muffler sounds good but I'd rather just remove the cat completely and bolt back on once smog time comes around. I've never done anything like this before but it seems straight forward, cut pipes, slide on new straight pipe...

    Intake for my 84 W150

    Well I'm not really going for huge hp gains, I'm really just trying to clean it up with new parts, figured a cai would look good in my engine bay, planning on just simple dress up parts mostly, going for new valve covers also since I need to replace the gaskets anyways.. I want the interior to...

    Intake for my 84 W150

    Could I attach one of these to the stock air filter opening or is it best to leave it open or connect a duct to the vent at the front of the truck?

    Intake for my 84 W150

    I'm a newbie with this truck, always liked the looks so I picked one up. It looks like its already set up for some kind of cold air intake as there's supposed to be a duct from the intake housing to a vent in the front. Can I just remove the entire stock housing and replace with an aftermarket...
