Swollen and broken glow plug. Oh man. Its the a.c. delco 60g that everyone here seems to like. All the others came out fine. Had 3 different brands in there.
Trying the trick to pull out the end through the injector hole but ran out of daylight.

Can you show pics when you're done?
Previous owner for mine was a police department, they put a hitch on there which I haven't used at all and your idea sounds amazingly simple. :jumpin:
My rear diff did that for a bit after I put a new Detroit locker in there. Then one day there was a big big clunk and its worked normally ever since.
I atributted it to getting stuck on burrs left from manufacturing, until they wore/broke off.

Washers from the wipers completed:
You do have to drill 1 hole next to the passenger wiper to feed the hose through. Make sure you get all the burrs off. Also male sure you get official vatozone washer tube not random from the house tube so that it doesnt leak all over...
Going to require fiddling. The connector to the pump is different. I got the whole assembly from a junk yard was able to get the new connector to the pump just strip the wires.
The washer tank is different too.
Also have the wipers from an 88 model where the fluid shoots out from each wiper...
my fuel filter with water separator was spitting rust colored goo after 2 years... i can only imagine what the fuel tank looks like.
as soon as im living in a place thats my own I will take your advice ;P
I had issues with my washer being unreliable. The rebuild kit from rock auto did the trick.

spraypaint case of 12 was enough to do a whole m1009 if youre wondering how much it covers
google some closeups of the unit markings should give you some idea if you want to do a specific one
i found a guide...
Is that one of those rain gutter extenders that you used for the intake tube?
Do you happen to know what model year Chevy stopped doing the round filter housing with your larger opening? 50 mile drive to pick a part I want to be sure they have it.

Having moved to a colder climate I am thinking of adding a glow plug to my spin-on fuel filter mod. I have the napa 4770 base with 2 free ports aside from the inlet/outlet.
1. I'm seeing 'normal start' glow plugs and 'fast start' glow plugs. What's the difference?
2. Can I splice in the glow...
Pulled apart the connection behind the fuse box that goes into the engine bay. Someone suggested to clean it with wd40 and brake cleaner. Did that, applied new dielectric grease, put it back together.
Wow everything now works
High idle, fuel gauge, parking brake light [emoji192]
