Its hard to believe that the starter just up and died just after you got it home. i would try one more thing. crawl under the truck and rap on the starter case with a hammer. try to start. do it again, see what happens. thanks. mark
Dont worry about the glow plug relay voltage. it lookes ok. grab the plug for the starter relay and make sure its seated, try to start again. does it click? if not you should unplug the harness plug , hold it in your hand, check for voltage on the red wire. if it has voltage take a paper click...
You can reach it from under the truck, just move it a little. i dont think its the problem. just from watching your video i think your not getting power past the starter relay. you can remove it from under the dash. (silver square can) , hold it in your hand and turn the key to start. do you...
The only buzz i can think of is the seatbelt buzzer, most people unplug it. its at the top of the fuse panel. you may have blown a fuse, even though that wont keep it from starting or turning over. the glow plug light did come on for a brief moment in the video. i would pay more attention to...
Sounds like the glow plugs are cycling, thats good. i didnt see a current draw when you turned the switch telling me your starter relay may not be working. its under the dash , right under the radio plate, you can bypass it to test if its good. you can also read posts on how to repair it. you...
When i sell a truck i always tell the buyer to call me if there is a problem or a question they have. can you not call the seller for a little help? he could probably get you going again or point you in the right direction. thanks. mark
It was born an 88 3/4 ton suburban 4x4 with a 350 gas engine. thanks. mark
The only engine with a turbo could be a 6.5 diesel from 92 up. when the turbo fails they smoke bad and lose power.
If you could get the vin we could find out what it was born with. looks like the axels were swapped from a cucv truck. even 3/4 ton 4x4 suburbans came with 10 bolt front ends and most had semi float rear ends. i also noticed the radio antenna on the right fender. let us know. thanks
My o9 has some rust in the tailgate and above the rear wheels, and rust repair in the rocker panels. runs good, will pass tx state inspection.i have been asking 2k for it.
How much does he want? does it have good batteries? start and stay running? sounds like the filter base is leaking fuel back to the tank. pictures and the vin would help. thanks. mark
Are you able to rev the engine slightly to see if the glow of #2 light changes? when running what is the output of #1? i checked one of my trucks today and tried to duplicate your issue. if i dont rev my truck slightly my #1 light wont go out.(energize) when it does go out i only have 13.9 on...
Your alternators are working, you must have a dirty connection at the back battery, on the other hand if it turns over to start good that may not be the problem. also check the ground at the back of the motor by the can fuel filter. it has a bolt with a stud to hold the negative cable , it has...
Thanks for clearing that up. i have a pile of those bulbs, and i just replaced one in my white 28. did not see this particular issue. i cant find any marking on the bulb's either.
