Welcome from Western Oklahoma (similar to Canada today)! Nice looking truck!

Sounds like you are getting close to the problem.

He said old sensor was clicking off and on too.

If you disconnect the plug from the sensor does the wait light come on and stay on. Sounds like a loose wire or connection somewhere .

Since both coolant sensors are clicking either they are both bad or I suspect you have a problem with the plug to the sensor or the wiring itself. Do the sensors have resistance on a volt meter when cold?

What brand of glow plugs and temp switch on rear driver side temp sender and glow plug relay did you use? You have changed a lot of parts at once making it a little harder to diagnose. I suspect one of the new parts is defective or not the right one or a wire is in the wrong place or moving...

Try putting in a healthy dose of Power Service , Stanadyne, or any other flavor of diesel additive and see how it sounds.

You can install a helicoil in a damaged hole and it is better than new. Just do not go any deeper with the drill than the hole is already. This can be done without removing the head.

When buying one of these get the larger heavy duty version! Works a lot better on the stubborn break downs!

One of the GM part numbers is 1105500. Another number is 10459234. Original numbers for both sides.

All of the cucv's are made from 1984 parts. The military wanted them all the same. The year they were made is the only difference.

Actually changing the brushes and bushings and a few other items just to get a starter barely working is a "rebuilt" starter. It often has a few days warranty or none. It often works a while then fails. You might get a good one occasionally. A remanufactured starter is completely disassembled...

Frank there is a little envelope to the right of your user name in upper right hand corner of page. Click on envelope then click on show all conversations. Hope you find your address.

I would run some Seafoam added to the diesel thru it and see if it smooths out first. Seafoam or Power Service will clean out a lot of injectors.

Are you certain you have installed the correct diesel lift pump?

The rubber in harmonic balancers deteriorates with age whether they run or not. Just like the rubber in motor mounts and transmission and transfer case mounts. Running down the highway at full throttle and never changing a harmonic balancer do not go together on any vehicle the age of these...

I haven't had very good luck with Borg Warner or Standard electric switches or parts myself.

I have run several 205 transfer cases. Both 4 speeds and 400 automatics. They all shift out of 4 high best by going forward then let off gas and shift to 2 high. To shift out of 4 low stop, put transmission in neutral, then shift to 2 high. If an auto doesn't shift all the way from 4 low to 2...

What starter did the GM dealer install?

Biodiesel does not store well at all. It attracts moisture and breaks down in storage.
