Sounds like I just need to bite the bullet and just get it done!

Yeah, I burn about a quart every 600 miles. 196,000 miles and the head has never been touched to my knowledge (nor the injectors). It’s time for a top end rebuild for sure. I concur, once given more throttle, the noise goes away. Makes me think an injector could be spitting as you...

Ever figure this one out? My 93 makes a rattling noise when under very light load/throttle. Higher octane doesn’t help and I’m set at factory spec timing so I hesitate to believe it is pinging… I am beginning to wonder if it’s the timing chain or tensioner that is slightly slack when under very...

I saw this one in person. Didn’t notice any irregularities with the repair work but I did not get paint readings. I was able to procure the parts used for the repair work and it appeared to me that the driver quarter panel was replaced. I looked underneath and the frame/IFS looked untouched...

Just confirmed with seller it is still available. You can contact him through the Facebook link. Great truck, good luck!

Posting for a neighbor of mine who has it listed on FB Marketplace, where you can find his contact info and more pictures. The big selling points of this truck are definitely 1) he is the original owner with receipts for mechanical work and 2) the body/frame/paint. Paint is original and in good...

Air filter clean and no known cracks. Regarding IAC and TPS, would those cause issue only when not warm? My uninformed logic would make me think those would cause consistent issues despite operating temp?

Hey Folks, ‘93 with 183k Over the last several thousand miles, I have noticed my truck will stumble when accelerating for the first time after starting the engine (only the first press of the throttle when engine not warm). It will hang up for 3-4 seconds with the throttle pressed and just not...

Speaking for myself, I don’t feel any play in the driveshaft, I did recently grease the u-joints, however a shop did grease the slips and I noticed the sound shortly after. They may have overdressed despite my suggestion of just two pumps.I should probably remove the zerk and just start afresh...

I’m right there with you. I can actually play with the noise a bit by just feathering the throttle when coasting above 40mph or so. It’s that slight pressing/releasing of the throttle at speed that causes the noise (might I add that it’s not overly loud, but I can hear it. I don’t think my wife...

Hi Y’all- I know this thread is old but I’m trying to chase down a red wire that was spliced into my park/neutral position switch coming off the transmission. I am wondering if it is the red wire y’all have referenced that goes down the steering column. Any reason TVSS would have an electrical...

to add to this, it’s a 93 with a442. No other accessories I am aware of other than alarm, though I am not the original owner. also, some of the wires coming into the connector may be a little loose. I want to shove them in further and ensure they stick. Is there an adhesive glue of sorts suited...

Hi folks - my shift indicator lights on the dash have been intermittent for a while now and as a result, I am unable to hold First gear when L is selected (it shifts as if in drive). now I am pretty positive that the issue lies in the 7-pin connector above the starter. When I wiggle it, I can...

@Tooth Fairy im curious if you were able to resolve this issue? I’m having the same symptoms. Problem seems intermittent by the day. Did the linkage adjustment work?

Issue solved! As you stated, the shop put the washers on in random order. Thanks for the help!
