I used duralast part#42995, the hockey puck style

She’s blazin heat! New thermostat did the trick. Like I said I tested stat in a pot on the stove and it still opened and closed even tho defective, so be careful future no heaters!

Just strange because I put it it in a pot on the stove and watched it open and then close in cold water……either way new stat was delivered today, will install tommorow

just drove 30 mins to work. After the drive at idle with my temp gun highest reading I could get off upper hose was 108…looks like thermostat tricked me.

I do have a temp gun. Just not as accurate and a real thermometer. But I can tell you after trucks been running a while I can grab all rad hoses and heater core hoses. They are hot, but I can continually hold them, they aren’t burning hot.

I could run the truck with the cap off for 10 mins or so and then measure with a thermometer. I can no longer see the heater core dump because it’s full of coolant.

As the title says, I am blowing little to no heat. Last winter I recall having decent heat, this year I pretty much have nothing. Here is what I’ve done/checked before posting here: antifreeze level is full. Thermostat is in place, it’s the hockey puck style, and opened and closed in a pot of...

She’s purring like a kitten!!!

Well, I think this could be it… . oh and btw didn’t remove starter to get out. Left it in didn’t wanna deal with shimming , and that thing is huge!!!

Ok fellas and felletes, here’s the mystery. I’ll start from the beginning…. I bought this m1009 roughly 2 years ago. I bought it and pretty much immediately lifted it and put 35” tires on it. (I know, blasphemy). Before lifting I had test driven, driven around block a couple times, and...

UPDATE! After another reman injection pump, reman injectors, new glows, and an exhaust leak repair, she’s running great! Adjusted my vaccu for shift points which keeps it in lower gear longer so not falling on its face all the time. For a 6.2 she’s pretty peppy now! Thank you for all the help...

You know, now that I’m thinking about it…..I did 2 compression trsts, the first one was a fail b/c I didn’t disconnect the pink wire and the truck was spraying fuel and almost firing, which clogged up my gauge check valve so I had to fix and do a second one….. Anyway point is it was spraying...

God I hope so!
