Title: Newbie - Charleston, SC 1983 Chevy C-10
Post by: lingberr on June 06, 2014, 10:24:32 am

Hi all,

I am a newbie from Charleston, SC. I am here, mainly, to get a valuation of my 1983 Chevy C10 (53k miles) and to solve some minor issues. I've owned the vehicle for the last 10 years (and my brother and grandfather owned it dating back to original purchase from the dealer). anyways...

I am going to ask for help solving an idling/acceleration problem that has creeped in over the last few years.  I'm guessing EGR valve...but I haven't really dived in to determine.

I'll try to post some pictures of her over the weekend.


Pleasure to meet you all.

-Rob

Oh...I am an IT security guy by trade.

Thanks for the warm welcome. 

Shrimp/Grits in route.  Can't promise that they'll smell as nice after a few days in this heat...  :)

That's okay.  In the deep south we all have do the sniff test before we eat in this heat.  I was in Charleston a few years back and ate at Magnolias downtown.  The shrimp and grits were wonderful.

I'm working on, well don't have the time to do much work, 76 c10.
