    High pressure A/C switch on a 92?

    The high pressure shutoff switches are common . The R4 compressor is in common use. These parts are not unique to just these trucks, a wide variety of models and years use the same parts. Not all parts houses carry parts for every vehicle. Where they out of stock, don't carry that part? Just...

    power steering pump whine issues

    The return side, and the maganafine filter all on the low pressure to pump return. I used the constant tension spring clamps, the higher grip strength, similar to the radiator clamps. It's low pressure so I think screw clamps are overkill, but go with what your comfortable with. The basic...

    Gm didn't give wires a lot of extra length. Where ever it goes it has be within the reach of a circle of it's length. So if it taped to a bundle and has has 5 inches of play it has a home within that 5 inches of reach. Use your eyeballs and a flashlight it will be in that radius of reach. See...

    What is this fuse for? comes off of the positive terminal and has a wire going to the alternator.

    When I installed the 140 amp alternator on my Tahoe, the belt was I inch longer. Any of later models with 140 alternator have that 100 amp fuse installed in the wire to power dist box.

    Should I get a bigger battery?

    Add up all the items running at the time of heaviest draw. As in add the amperage of every item. 15 amps for headlights, 10 for stereo, all items operating. That determines how much you need to supply. The battery is storage and surge provider. Not for constant operation. That's the...

    Electric fan for Condenser?

    My 86 K3500 dually had a heavy duty tow option. And an extra transmission cooler with it's own fan. Later when going through the B&M catalog I think I know where GM sourced the cooler.

    Tensioner and idler recomendations.

    You can always look at the manufacturer website. If you can get here , you should be able to look up your parts on , Gates, Dayco, AC Delco, Imperial, it's not that hard. All the manufacturers have a Web presence, and any service literature, technical notes.

    Headlight flickering

    Alternator output measured from alt feed, should be 14 volts plus. Most LED fir 12 volt systems function from 8 volts to 24. Just use a couple test leads and check your bulb. Not run a separate circuit. Check the voltage at headlight connectors.

    No compression

    If we had low cylinder on differential test, and did well on run up and mag check, all temps in the green. We would " stake " a leaky valve in case some carbon or lead combustion material ( avgas low lead) got caught or flaked off in cool down. Bump the input pressure to 100 psi, then as your...

    Headlight flickering

    It's not a resistance problem as in turn signals hyper flash. I would test on 12 volt circuit to see if they function normally. Some of these chinesuim parts are zero quality control. I installed a set that were supposed to be canbus compatible in wife's 2012 mini Cooper S, they flick once...
