Looks good

You can remove the vacuum hose and use a long ziptie as a dipstick through the vacuum hole to see if it comes out wet

But there is a clutch return spring you can purchase from Amazon too fyi

I know what video you talking about lmao cuz I been searching for info on this bracket

I may do this, but seriously, 10 seconds is a bit slow but who cares

That a good quick fix. In the long-term, just buy a new carburetor. They're only about $20. I replaced the carburetor on mine and it runs perfect now. I heard its got something to do with running ethanol treated gasoline. Aka E-10 or E-15. Evidently it's not good for small gasoline engines.

Was that middle seat comfortable to sit in? Was it well padded on the bottom part?

my 2012 just turned off my stable and traction and put the break light on and this was the issue

I use quarter inch aluminum to make plate an never had a problem

My story is one of the head gaskets blew on my '90 K-1500 that the previous owner put a '94 engine in out of a W/T. There was a tick that developed at high RPM before the head gasket went. Ive never done any internal engine stuff and the GMT-400 pages and forums seem to be all about the Vortec swap with a carb for more power. Friends are telling me that carburated would be a step back and kill the reliability. So I figured I would find a way to keep the TBI so that lead me to your video(s). I just purchased a '97 Vortec out of a 4x4 Tahoe, and now im starting to order parts for the full swap, but now I'm wondering if I shouldn't just go to carburated since that may just be the way to go after all (or efi 💰). Unsure about what to do distributor wise, too. I get it. We're all out here just trying to make things work. I'm a middle-aged dude who isn't into all the new technology that new vehicles have. I like crank windows and basic functionality. The less shit that can break, the better. It blew my mind when my head gasket went and I couldn't find a shop that would touch it. All of them said they would put a new engine in for around $6k. I figured that I would figure it out myself before I spent that much. Anyway, I thank you for your content. At least I know I should be able to get my truck back on the road and learn a lot along the way.

Horrable misuse of the english langauage...

looks like azz my boy just buy a dash cover 40 bucks and glue it on top of that one looks new

does it run strange when breaking? someone told me that the brake booster could leak if ur trying to brake and then the rpm suddenly jumps to 500rpm while doing brake

Hei i did the hei distributor swap and now my truck act like the battery is dead after cranking on it a few times, is there any chance the hei needs more power or maybe i hooked something up wrong i did just like you did as far as hooking it up but im a little confused as to what to do next

Nope!

This is a GREAT video, thank you man!

Im actually getting ready to do the hei distributor conversion because the problem im having with mine is that the ecm will not advance the timing whatsoever both before and after i did my vortec swap and i still have the vortec knock sensor too ive checked for breaks in the wire and everything but it all checked out everything in the truck works and all the sensors are working but when i try to start it, it fires runs for a few seconds and dies and i set the timing to zero with a timing light and ive been scratching my head trying to figure it out for the last year i know the engine is good but the ecm hates me😂

Dawg I got a 1990 lifted suburban that needs a gasket replaced it’s a bitch fr need a step stool to get in that fucker and I’m already 6’3 😭 I’m in for a fun time fr

Where you get that thing that sensor that bolts into the 4l60e

Nice set up 👍.

Nice tool setup for school. Good luck in school. Nice to see a young person wanting to learn a skill.

Hope that setup you got there holds up. Looks rather heavy if ya know what I mean. All the best at school.

Good luck and you have to love being a mechanic to stay with it😮

how much schooling do have left school and working trying to make a living takes a toll

Nice tour. Great set for young guy. Congratulations

Great video thanks 👍

not useful at all show how to remove it

I have a 1989 with a vortec that was swapped and i have a few questions about it if have # could call or anything

IM confused . so the small purple and white wire hook to the bigger white tach wire then to distributor tack????

You will need chromes can get decent for cheap though

Can i just replace the MC gasket?

I would highly recommend an adjustable oil filter wrench that works with any size. It functions like a slip joint pliers, all the other ones are a pain to use. You mentioned the another toolbox with some other stuff, maybe you have that not shown. I would like to see a tour of your other box, nice video, thanks.

Great video. In the tech industry we use HF on multimillion dollar equipment. If you're field service and they get lost or stolen it's no big deal. No shame in the HF. It's you not the tool.

Does yours have hesitation issues for example- when I step on mine it will sorta bog out or just cut out for 2 second and the get it but very slowly mostly everything is brand new on it to anything helps thank you

Wish your video came up first on feed! I’m in the process of doing the same thing the forums and other videos arent as informative and your video really helped me have a good idea of what to do thanks!

Thats my reason for wanting to do the swap on mine, same problems can't figure out. Code 42 43 backfire, hesitation, paid a mechanic $500 couldn't figure it out. Im just trying to make the thing run because I can't afford a new one. So with the tbi/hei its running good?

Nice 👍 thanks

You’re my people man, good job.

Why did u buy new head bolts ? Those bolts aren’t stretch bolts and can be reused. That’s the beauty of working on old stuff.

Okay so i wanna do the reverse of this i have buckets im swapping on the 60/40 is it hard?

Thanks for making this video , my truck isn’t throwing a code but I keep losing brake fluid and I can feel the break power dwindling. Sometimes the peddle will sink while I’m at a light.

My vehicle is GMC Yukon slt 2011. Started facing this problem and I am still stuck with this notification. It started with the brake booster, got it changed but the message came back, then after checking it was found that there is a problem with ABS, got it changed and original ABS program was installed. I had to do a procedure of opening the booster and checking the pressure along with bleeding the brakes but, the message came back. Now what? Ground cable was also cleaned. The message appears after couple minutes of driving.

Use the smog pump to pull vacuum on the crank case my friend go NASCAR

I have a 2012 Silverado and couldn’t track down where it was losing brake fluid. Thanks for posting

do you know the thread pitch etc for the washer and nut you put onto the clutch fork. and the name of the retainer clip? id greatly appreciate it

thanks

This is exactly what my truck is doing been trying to figure out where the fluid was going

As soon as I saw the Scotchloks I knew to stop the video and quit watching... nothing to learn here.
