    Starting issue

    Well… it’s hard to believe it was that simple! I went out to check my connections again and noticed my ground wire to the battery was loose. It was covered by slime heat shrink before so I didn’t notice. Probably my problem all along. Thank you!

    Starting issue

    My son’s 1996 80 has had intermittent starting issues for a while. Turn the key and it cranks find]e sometime and then others it wouldn’t turn over. Lights were always on the dash if it cranked or not. I previously rebuilt the starter and wondered if something went sideways there but haven’t...

    Replaced O2 sensors and now…

    I’m not getting any codes now. I got codes after I replaced the O2 sensors but before I disconnected the battery. Now I’m not getting the CEL or codes with my reader.

    Brake booster nut size

    Lost one of these bits replacing the brake booster. Do you know the size to replace it?

    Replaced O2 sensors and now…

    Well… I unhooked the battery terminal and then reconnected and now no engine check light. Should I consider the problem solved?

    Replaced O2 sensors and now…

    My sons 96 80 series had the check engine light come on. I got codes PO130 and PO133. So I replaced the O2 sensors with Densos. The old ones were pretty crusty and looked like they never had been replaced. However, I still have those 2 codes and now I’m also getting PO171. Thoughts on what...

    SOLD  Working wiper motor for a 1996 80 series

    My son’s wiper motor is frozen and my attempt to rebuild it didn’t rectify the problem. Hoping to find a used working one here that I can buy. Let me know if you have one to sell. Thanks!

    Much appreciated! I'll start diving into the motor.

    Wipers not moving

    My wife was driving my son's 80 when it was raining. Turned it off to run in a store, came back out and turned it on and the wipers are frozen in place. They don't respond at all to being turned on or off now. I checked the fuse and it is still good. Thoughts on where to turn next? Did a search...

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    So I pulled a 10A fuse from a headlight and plugged it in to the engine slot. Wouldn’t you know it that I got 13.5 V at my battery. That was it! I couldn’t believe it! And my truck run smooth again. Makes total sense now!! Always something simple right in front of me. My wife just happened to...

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    So I did… and I couldn’t believe it when I pulled the engine fuse and got nothing! After visually inspecting it closer I see the break in it too!

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    @OTRAMM’s diagram showed three fuses that are all in the fuse box that need to be checked. I visually checked them and they looked fine. But @OTRAMM strongly encouraged a continuity test on them.

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    In his video he quickly shows the wiring diagram for the 60 that I grabbed and studied.

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    So thinking I had a bad ignition switch I started to do more research on replacing that. I ran across @OTRAMM video on alternators that is worth a watch. Here is is:

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    So here’s the update. It looks like I’m finally going to be able to close the loop on this one! I took @duncanrm advice and studied more about alternators than I thought I could. Did you know that most alternators don’t just start producing power when the belt is running? I didn’t but now I...

    New alternator, 60 won’t stay on at idle

    Yes, my alternator is from a 62. The PO made the change and rewired it.
