I overlooked it! hahaha! Yes I know we were talking about the bracket. I wonder if edelbrock does one??? I know they make unusaul brakets like a throttle and kick down/tv cable barcket for installing a carb on newer vortec engines (Gasoline). I have a lot of chevy experiance. All the th400 trans...

I figured... I have a junk yard about 35 miles from me full of 80's model chevys. I have been through there 100 times and don't recall seeing any diesel motors. I am planning a trip up there soon and will be on the look out now. I tell ya a junkyard full of chevys is my heaven. I can get lost...

Thanks cliffyp. Yes that is scondary to a vaccum pump test. Got both in mind. I;m going to try to run a pump test tomorrow. Can't wait to title this thing and DRIVE it. Anxiety is killing me. I get a little closer and have another hiccup! I see you have 700r4 listed. Where did you get a detent...

Next step! Thanks again. Going to tm's to see if I can find what it should read. Don't have one on hand. Hoping autozone has a loaner. Just felt it again there is something there just don't know how much. Big help Ryan! Just knowing the vaccum pump can cause my problems. Maybe I can sleep now...

Thanks Ryan! My pump feels weak I think (having nothing to compare it too). Pulled the line off while engine was running and heard no vaccum. Stuck it to my finger but barely. Just starting to run low on funds for this project after motor, batteries, paint, ect., ect., ect.

Thanks cliffy. If the vaccun pump is a problem wouldn't you still be able to manual shift second? I may be dealing with multiple issues here. I am going to wind up with a 30 y/o new truck if I don't slow down!

Not my first rodeo work on old chevy trucks Just got to get used to the 24 volt system and diesel. I run diesiels in a charter boat but they are old 4-53 detriots. No glow plugs. Just forward and reverse trans. Nothing fancy. very old school.

Haha yep no vaccum pump on a hummer motor!!! That is why I used my old one and IP! Since I didn't have the ecm or 4l80e (or whichever the hummer runs). Oh and the oil pan! Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated! Been at the truck non-stop for 2 weeks. Replacing all hoses, cleaning...

So the vaccum pump should be creating alot of vaccum? would that prevent even a 2nd gear start? Or manual upshift?

That is what I was thinking but.... First diesel/first mv. Just dropped a hummer motor in it. Farm fresh with blown motor. Know chevys. Know gas motors just going through a few things for the first time! Enjoying it!!!

I too am struggeling with mine (m1009). No 2nd or 3rd upshifts. Solid in first and reverse, tried manually shifting with no success. Fluid is level good and clean. Vaccum seems pretty week off the pump. Suction barely holds the tube to my finger. Hmmmaua
