    M211 break system

    I am also have break problems. It seemed to be the least of my worries when I first got the truck. In fact it stopped pretty well up until a few days ago. There is plenty of air pressure. The manual says that if they feel mushy then you need to bleed the system. My question is when I opened...

    GMC 211 engine and auto trans boost and smooth

    No I don't, but it won't be hard to get a few more. I will see if I can get some tonight. The top looks like it was welded in a few places like around the top, back and sides. It was used as a fire brush truck so I think they worked on it a bit. I really want to put a rag top back on but I will...

    GMC 211 engine and auto trans boost and smooth

    Thanks. I will start there. I have learned that shifting properly helps when you know a hill is coming. .I know its not a fast truck but I think it should give me a little more power that it is presently. Also does anyone know what type of muffler I need to get in aftermarket to replace this one...
