Rescuing a 1972 GMC from a field
มุมมอง 262หลายเดือนก่อน
I bought an abandoned GMC pickup that had sat in a field for about 15 years. It had been stripped of just about everything. I bought a motor on the cheap, rebuilt the brakes, rewired the truck, bought gauges, wheels/tires, windshield and a seat. Now I'm rolling down the road in it!

Vortec motor acted like it was locking up out the timing was severely off. It missed, sputtered, backfired and died upon acceleration. We replaced the radiator hose to stop the coolant leak, and one other part to fix our problem! Check out this short video to find out how!

    I wanted to do that for some many years. But now I am doing a Ls3/6L80E in a 03' Crown Vic Police Interceptor. It's a project with my grandkids.

    • @fredtalks-diyfortheaverage9298
      @fredtalks-diyfortheaverage9298 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      He bought an edelbrock 2114 manifold and bungs. Drilled out for the bungs and added the external injectors. He also had to make a plate since he kept the factory throttle body. He did say that he might build some of these intake/fuel kits if there was enough interest.

  • @robland6118
    @robland6118 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Dude I believe I can do it and plan to do it. I will more than likely use the marine intake though. I have an awd bravada. I don't know much about the ecm but I will learn. This is almost exactly my plan.

    • @fredtalks-diyfortheaverage9298
      @fredtalks-diyfortheaverage9298 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Good luck. I think he went the edelbrock route because the marine intakes were much more expensive and are heavy cast iron. He is learning on they fly how to tune so it can be done!

    This principle is easy 8th grade science class....yes it will work but you do need a larger recovery tank so you can also do brake flushes with out constantly emptying the tank....a larger tank let's say a 35 gallon plastic barrel can be used to empty a gas tank so you can replace an in tank fuel pump by dropping a empty tank or nearly empty on bigger trucks.... More people should have paid attention in 8th grade science class 😂😂😂

  • @brianob1
    @brianob1 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks! I couldn't quite use your method as my bit got wider for a 1.5 inch hole. But I was able to use a similar thought to clamp a vise grip, then an adjustable wrench to pry it off. Once out I didn't measure a difference in bit width, but seemed just a bit thicker on 2 sides. I filed it a bit and it's smooth. I will also try some lubricant, grease, or penetrant when changing bits. It seems to be the heat and tough work that makes them stick.

It died in a parking lot after my son and I had dinner, waited 4 hrs+ for AAA and being a super bowl Sunday they never found us a tow. Had to Lyft home. I was concerned it would be much more difficult but after seeing this I feel good about working on it myself 🙏🏼

    Once I removed the metal half circle pin above the collar, I could see that the bit cleared the ball bearings and was simply stuck in the barrel. The bit was a cheap item from Amazon, three inch wide but short. Other bits slide in and out of the barrel fine. I learned two lessons, one is to buy good bits, two is to grease the bit.

    I have major vapor lock on my 79 F150 with a 460. I bought the same filter and I’m going to do the same thing with the existing charcoal canister line. Someone removed the canister but left the line, so it should be an easy mod. This truck will stall out, especially on a hill - it’s really bad. Glad to hear it cured your vapor lock. Have a great day and have fun driving that classic gal!

    My 2011 had the seal leak and I think it was caused by the slip bump that I procrastinated on regreasing. If you get the slip bump make sure to clean and grease your drive shaft splines and save yourself time and money.

    Wow! Fred....yours is the only video so far that I have found showing a smidgen of a 'plastic kind of web' thing behind the pinion flange. What in the world is that? I don't see anyone else with one on the vehicle they are filming. And I sure have not seen it when looking at parts to replace the pinion seal. Did you replace that? Do you know what the thing is called? I am so relieved to finally see someone with that on their vehicle. Appreciate your comment or anyone else's regarding that. Thanks a million. Jesus bless.

    Heya boss. I hope you see this and can help. I had to replace the accessory relay again in the passenger kick panel. A week later and it is blown again. Cranking and not starting. Any idead why the relay keeps going bad? It is a 2004 Ford Ranger Edge 4x4 with a 6cyl. 4.0L engine.

    • @curta8016
      @curta8016 ปีที่แล้ว

      Electrical problems can be tricky. I would suggest that you first replace the relay (again) with a good quality relay. I would think if the circuit is getting excessively loaded that it would blow a fuse before taking out the relay. I have purchased a few bad relays in my days.
