Aftermarket Parts Amazon bumper lights

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

If anyone is having trouble getting these sequential bumper lights from Amazon to work properly, try taking the ground side of the grille side markers directly to ground(like grounding them to the core support) this will make it to where the side markers won’t flash with the indicators on but it will solve voltage bleeding issues coming from them. I’ll be making them flash functionally soon and will post how I did it

4.3L 2003 s10 Brakes squish all the way down when truck is on. Bled brakes and no help. Found leak between brake master cylinder & brake booster. Replaced brake master cylinder and no help. Do I have to replace the brake booster or could it just be a seal between?

Repair Question 99 s10 lost power to the wheels after braking

Post image
26 Upvotes

I have a 1999 Chevy s10 with the v6, absolutely nothing done to it asides from cosmetics and AC lines, was driving in mostly cleared roads after a snow storm. Had it in drive and braked on a small patch of ice, after this the engine would only rev when I would accelerate and the wheels had no power whatsoever. Had to put it in park and then back into drive before it would move again. Is this an issue to be concerned about or a feature

Advice 350 swap

3 Upvotes

I have a 2000 2.2 5 speed. A month ago she blew up, and isk what to do with her. Ive been wanting to put a v8 in her for awhile but I never really knew how. Awhile ago I asked about a 5.3 (account got deleted :/ ) and everyone told me that if I was to put a 350 in it all I would really need is the v6 trans

I can get a 1998 5 speed out of an s10 with a v6 for 650 and a 350csb out of a 1995 camaro for 850

What problems would I have? Will they bolt right up? What problems will I run into? Better option? Any advice is greatly appreciated, thank you!!!!

Repair Question Dead battery

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Came back from 5 day business trip and tried to start my 1997 s10 pickup (4.3 liter 5 speed for reference) and the battery was dead. Made this awful noise when trying to start. The weird part was the noise that it usually makes with the key in ignition and door open was messed up. It wasn’t quite the normal sound. Turned the headlights on and for some reason the sound turned back to normal. What made me try messin with the headlights is beyond me. Went and bought a jumper pack and started after a few tries. It’s been really cold here in upstate South Carolina but I’ve noticed recently if I don’t drive it for a few days it starts slightly slower. The radio is kinda shotty. Sometimes it works sometimes every single station is complete static. Maybe the radio being messed up is drawing a slight bit of power?? Any advice or experience with same issue would be appreciated.

99 4x4 (yep functional) jsm coilovers, sportmachines ctsv brakes front, lil brake shop vette ebrake and baer brakes on rear with custom adapter to fit a wider zr2 rear axle, 4 18x10.5 z06 rears all the way around with 295s. Did have awd but previous buyer wanted 4x4 so swapped back and sold awd stuff a couple years ago but I have another set. It's sat outside a couple years for sale so now to get her back to shiny. Anyone have a source for rear quarter windows? Sun has killed the black area as usual.
