I was running a timing light on my pickup and found that it's base time was something around 20 degrees of advance, but when i would throttle it, it would pull timing out, and the more and harder i rev the engine the more it would pull to the point that it would have maybe 2 degrees of advance...

Does anyone know at what temperature the coolant temperature switch is activated? If it is not too hot when it switches on, I would like to hook my electric fan relay to it, instead of turning on whenever the truck is on. I made a single relay harness and wiring for an electric fan I put into...

I had an electrical short in the engine bay of my truck, I found at least 2 wires that got totally fried. I was able to disconnect the battery before it burned to the ground or anything got too badly damaged, but I need to go through an fix the wires I found to be burned and any others that...

I got a power steering box, but no pump. Any reason why a pump made for another rig wouldn't work? I got lists of various car parts around and was just wondering what kind of issues there may be other than getting th right pully

The stock cast manifold broke in half while i was replace the exhaust system; I found a steel tube header on a 93', I made a plate from sheet metal to block the smog pump holes that run underneath each of the exhaust ports to the atmosphere; it seemed to work, but now i get the feeling that...

found out that the alternator and voltage regulator were both bad. Since I had a 120amp GM alternator sitting in my collection and I decided a long time ago that one of the things that General Motors got right was their alternator design. Being a 1-wire capable unit i could have just hooked up...

i have a 2wd only toyo kogyo transmission and I was just wondering if there is a transfer case that would bolt onto it, or will i need a new transmission? The transmission as it sits works just fine now, and would like to keep it if possible. thanks Dustin
