    powersteering lines

    That’s a pressure reduction valve that feeds PS fluid to the rear differential….got nothing to do with a winch. are you attempting to sec old dried out rubber hose? Or have you replaced the old hose with new? Quite common for old dried out hose to not compress enough with hose and used clamps…

    Fan Time Delay Module bypass / Manual Fording Switch

    Huh? I’ve literally had US military trucks with an adapter that eliminated the TDM…the Cadillac valve is a 24v solenoid, everything electrical is 24v… 24v is present at all time on the engine harness on wire 458 when the key is in the run position

    Fan Time Delay Module bypass / Manual Fording Switch

    You don’t need a TDM as the thermostatic switch allows and denies 24’s anyway to the TDM, the TDM is not what actuates the fan, it’s the thermostatic switch Wired to the Cadillac valve solenoid.

    Serpentine belt keeps destroying forward rib

    Version of serpentine setup determines correct belt…for OEM, that would be 3 different length belts.

    My company pioneered the use and installation of the M11XX condensers with the Red dot AC evaporator…..I still have tons of parts for this application.

    M1165 Rear AC Rattle

    I’ve replaced many rear evaporators…no way to do almost anything without removing the entire unit. There is no parts replacements for the motors and squirrel cages.

    Bringing non-runner M1165A1 REV back to life!

    Well, that doesn’t actually answer the question, was the timing set scribe to scribe as the factory does? And how much is the pump,advanced now? I don’t time my pumps, i set them dead center via the scribes and go from there…a scribe width or 3 to the drivers side advances the pump.
