Aerosal paint for my white 1987 R10

September 25, 2020, 06:38:54 PM by mmanship | Views: 41 | Comments: 2

Dupont indicates their code for the white was 817. The mfg code seems to be 12/5111. Does anyone know of a provider for aerosal paint for our older trucks?

TBI fuel tank:

i know this has probably been asked before, but i don't have time to do a thorough search. Could probably do one tonight though.

Is there an aftermarket equivalent to the TBI fuel tank? i assume you can't buy them new from GM anymore?

What fuel pump (model #) was used in the TBI system?

Wipers not working

September 24, 2020, 07:59:57 PM by Beefcake35 | Views: 70 | Comments: 3

So, 79 K10 with air. Wipers were working but slow. Now they quit completely. Looking at the electric design there should be power to the wiper motor constant with the key on. I tested and I dont get power on the yellow wire circled in the pic (with grounded test light). When I hook up 12v to it and hit it with a test light she shines. I tested fuse and its good. Also tested with a meter. I think it goes without saying I have power at none of the pins at the switch. Looks like power is delivered to the ww motor and back to the switch. Loosing what hair I have left here. Thoughts? Not sure where to trace back here. Should I run a different hot wire to that yellow wire and see if it goes? Thanks in advance!

A/C kicking on and off with defrost

September 24, 2020, 09:54:50 AM by Beefcake35 | Views: 75 | Comments: 4

Hi All! Have a question for you gurus. My defrost wasnt working so I located the problem with vacuum. Now I am noticing when I am in defrost the A/C compressor kicks on and off about every 5 seconds. I dont remember it doing that before. It runs constant when I am ac mode and is off constant on everything else except defrost when it kicks on and off. Thanks in advance!
