    Storage box bolt size

    The later model trucks have a bracket that goes from the core support to the inner fender which also serves as a support for the storage box. The charcoal canister is closer to the engine, mounted to that bracket. Like 454cid mentioned, the later canisters are rectangular instead of round. Since...

    2000 C2500 Project

    I've been driving this but haven't done much to it lately. Seemed to run ok but wondered how much better it would be with a tune. Got a mail order PCM from Black Bear a couple weeks ago. After installing, it started spark knocking a lot under load. Checked a few things, nothing obvious. Replaced...

    Storage box bolt size

    The storage box bolt is identical to the bolts that hold the computer and washer fluid reservoir to the inner fender

    gear shift indicator light

    The black part you are looking at is the shift interlock solenoid. All it does is prevent the gearshift from being moved out of park unless the brake pedal is depressed. It may have been unhooked due to it not working correctly (probably bad solenoid or brake light switch). Won't prevent...

    Crank relearn and cam retard offset question

    Yes absolutely. I don't think the crank signal just changed all of a sudden. When I got it tuned I also got a new computer. So I just wanted to calibrate it to get it used to my engine

    Crank relearn and cam retard offset question

    I was able to borrow a scan tool from a shop and did the crank variation learn. Checked the CMP and still within spec. Engine is spark knocking a lot though when put under load. Wasn't doing that before the computer swap and I haven't messed with anything else. Guess I'm going to get in touch...

    Crank relearn and cam retard offset question

    I can read the CMP with my scan tool, it just can't do crank relearn. I guess I will get that done first and then check CMP when I get home just to be sure

    Crank relearn and cam retard offset question

    Working on my 2000 C2500 5.7 (now 383). Ordered a tuned PCM and installed it today. It runs, no check engine light, but I understand doing a crankshaft position relearn is recommended. I set the distributor offset to 0 (+/- 2) degrees @ 1000 rpm on the old PCM. Do I need to readjust this for...

    Chrome front bumper guards

    Those aren't a direct fit though. I wonder what would be involved in modifying them

    Chrome front bumper guards

    I can't seem to find them. Do you remember what section they were in or part number?

    2000 C2500 Project

    My new exhaust has been noisy since I first installed it. Found one of the clamps before the muffler was not sealing well. The muffler itself was leaking between the body and pipe entrance. And the intermediate flange had blown the gasket out. The clamped-on tailpipe did not want to come off the...
