Ok after many hundreds of dollars I've deduced that I either have a fuel pressure problem, or an injector pump problem. It surges a bit on the low side and it seems like it just runs out of fuel on the high side. I'm hoping its just a dirty or collapsed tank screen. If it is not I'm afraid she...
Thank you. I probably will not wet sand it for a few days due to "my fingers have lost their prints "haha and their sore. from sanding the 3-4 layers of paint off. I am planning on painting it a dark emerald green metalic, I cant remember who makes it but its the pre mixed stuff you can get at...
Ok so I got her sanded and primed. not a great job but I have never painted anything automotive before exept by rattle can, In which I do a much better job oddly enough.
I installed a new Napa "MECHANICAL" fuel pump and WOW I cant believe the difference it made in power and delivery! I can now fish tail with ease, actually have to "try" not to. HAHA I even barked the tired on the asphalt with no brakes! Again wasnt TRYING to do that..
actually I used 2 on each side and It actually rides smoother, theres almost no flex now but the up and down bounce is way less jarring, my shocks are blown and probably have been since the late 80's haha but It actually rides MUCH better, and seems to be a slight amount more stable on the road...
Oh I have almost got my lift done, It doesnt rub under most circumstances, Only minor at full lock with the opposing side in the air. "woo hoo" Many of you may laugh and snicker and such but I used a set of m-818 front springs that I had the 3-4th springs are perfect length and make for aprox...

well I got my fuel pump "napa" cost me $18. I want to get a spin on filter and base but my finances at the moment are not allowing for said modification. I am also contemplating leaving the electric pump on as a back up for the mechanical unit, only I'll run it through a toggle switch so its not...
well I do want to fix the mec pump and I can definatly see your point as to where a electric pump could have some advantages, but both together dosent seem like it is very benefitial especially all the time being on and making the god awfull racket it makes!
Well I think I got very lucky! The truck runs like a champ, I have got the engine oul and filter changed. I have also changed the tranny oil and filter, now fot the t-case and differentials. I have pulled the old seat out and cleaned out the cab "wow" It was terribly dirty under there... Only...
Skinny I have a set of 37's for new shoes and i have a trans pack w filter 4 the tranny already I am under the assumption that the battery's are there and functional, "only cucv i've seen that said in running condition" ever. With lady luck on my side its just a 50 dollar fuel pump n a $9.50...
