Glad it was simple fix and not expensive for ya!

roadrunner

Batteries can be fickle things. Your battery can show full charge with a volt meter but under load be far less. I suggest you have a load test done on it. It needs to stay above 10.5 volts under full load for 30 seconds. Less than that you need to replace it.

roadrunner

Been there, done that. I used to get cajoled by my brother for keeping spares of the axles on hand. I told him it was cheaper in the long run because when one went bad it was usually at the most inconvenient time and the truck had to go the next day. Parts houses rarely had them on hand here either.

roadrunner

Good luck! I finally gave mine away!

roadrunner

I've no doubt they were hosing me but that's what ya get at the stealership. I can understand because I know the entire dash has to come out to replace the core which is still hidden in the heater assy after taking out the dash. I say I can understand as I used to do mechanic work in a Ford dealersh...

This was the final straw why I traded mine off. Already had new tires and brakes all around and very low miles on 2nd tranny rebuild. Was told 2500.00 to replace core. Inquired of replacing evap core while in there and told it came out from the other side involving removal of hood and RH fender for ...

I have replaced the RH half shaft by turning the wheel all the way to the right and compressing the shaft after of course removing the shaft nut and wheel. Be very careful not to damage the seal or the needle bearing in the housing end. It's a bitch to replace either one and even harder to get it to...

Weak fuel pump? Fuel filter plugging up? Pre-cat/main cat partially plugged? Collapsed or otherwise plugging exhaust pipe/system?

Make sure you have adequate length on both cables as well because the mfr is pretty stingy with batt cables. The torque and movement of the engine can raise hell with an otherwise good connection particularly if the motor mounts are getting bad. Lengthen them if needed. You won't be sorry for doing ...

roadrunner

Sounds like a ground problem but before digging into that have you verified BOTH of your battery cables are tight and making good contact? Also that they are not only tight but the inserts they screw into on the battery are not loose in the battery even though the cables are tight in them? I've had ...

Here's a partial list on the classifieds here. I have numerous more unlisted such as caliper guide pins and other items too numerous to mention. viewtopic.php?f=10&t=9200

roadrunner

I feel your pain. I'm about ready to trash several hundred bucks worth of brand new parts because I no longer have my CC and nobody on here seems to want any of them.

roadrunner

Wow!

Lucky you!

Not about the failure but certainly about the find.

Sounds like you're having my kind of "luck" on vehicle repairs.

roadrunner

Plugged pre-cat? Mine acted that way till I got rid of that item.

I will take the fuel pump. Do you have Paypal? If so i can send payment through there with my address. I'm not sure you can send your address through PayPal but if you don't want it on the general listings pages send me a message on the index listing. I usually check daily barring unforeseen circum...

roadrunner

Yes I have PayPal. This pump is for the models with the steel tanks only. I think they started with plastic in late 02. Could be mistaken on that one. PayPal is larrysgolfhope@yahoo.com. I will send out the pump as soon as funds hit my account and you give me the address you want it sent to. Thanks ...

roadrunner

Yes, all parts listed in the post are still available. I have updated whenever sold items by deleting them. I also have more brake parts such as guide pins and bolts and others too numerous to mention.

roadrunner

If you should decide to go with 01 steel tank I have a pump (brand new never installed) I'll sell ya. Listed here in the classified section with a number of other parts as well. 1 Delphi fuel pump (FG0070) with wire harness fits 97-02 w/steel tank. $50.00. No charge for shipping.

roadrunner

Just a quick suggestion. Make sure your battery cable to battery connections are tight and unmovable. This is a common problem area on the s-10 series.

roadrunner

Sorry to hear of your troubles and paying so much for a pump. I have one listed here on this site for much less and it's brand new never installed with pigtail kit as well. 1 Delphi fuel pump (FG0070) with wire harness fits 97-02 w/steel tank. $50.00 Not to add insult to injury but my ad also says I...

Hard for me to believe nobody needs/wants any of these parts! :blink: I see over 120 views and no takers? If they don't sell soon I will throw them in the dump and be done with it. They are priced below cost with me paying shipping so I won't lower any further or I'd be paying somebody to take them....

Just a quick word of advice on the custom rad. Make sure the air flow fins that don't carry coolant are not too close together either. Years ago John Deere had trouble with this and took them a couple years to figure out they put too many cross fins in causing the air flow to be restricted enough it...

Not to argue with you but when I got my wait4me computer from Jesse Bubb (who did the programming) he informed me a crank relearn procedure WAS necessary when I installed it or went back to OEM computer.

roadrunner

I'm sure this will sound strange. Have you double checked for exhaust leaks throughout the system (causing air to leak into the exhaust)? Don't forget to check the air injection system if it has one as my 01 did for bad check valves or rotted out tubes. Have you installed a new computer before or si...

My crew is now replaced by a Tacoma crew TRD offroad truck. I have quite a few parts on hand for the s-10 which I will be listing later. Let me know if you need anything as I more than likely have it. I have enjoyed this site and will still be lurking around.

roadrunner

Perhaps I'm wrong but I looked up the lines on rockauto and came up with a FL1062B steel line set which it says fits 96-02 s-10 and sonoma with 122.9" wheelbase which is what our crews are. Might be worth another look? BTW I looked it up for an 01 with steel tank which is what mine is.

roadrunner

You've been lucky indeed! As soon as I installed my W4M mine immediately started throwing P0300 miss-fire code which wouldn't go away when cleared. After relearn no more codes.

roadrunner

I've been following this thread and have a quick question. When you swapped the FC out for the W4M module did you do a crank relearn? Just asking as when Jesse did mine I had SES light issues till (per his instructions) I had a local mechanic with a snap-on tester do the relearn. WARNING: NOTE: DO N...

That clamp is for the front differential vent hose which terminates right above it with a vent cap on the end of the hose. Check below perhaps it has fallen down.

In the end, could very well be the encoder motor. Your right, I've read that before about the sensor in it going bad. I'm just trying to rule out other things while I'm at it.

When my encoder motor failed I had the identical problem of only available to be able to shift from 2hi to 4lo. 4hi would not work at all. Tried all the above mentioned fixes including the owners manual forced shift. What goes bad in the encoder motor (generally) is the position indicator that tells...

roadrunner

The 50psi marking on the side of the tires indicates max COLD inflation pressure.

roadrunner

I have had this sound on a couple vehicles and in both cases it was low coolant level which causes air trapped in the system at the heater core and the resulting sucking or whooshing sound when the engine revs up a bit on takeoff etc.

roadrunner

My sidewalls (BFG 235x75x15 AT tires that measure 29.5x9 I believe) also say 50psi and it has been my experience that running anything much lower than that hurts my fuel economy and my tires are wearing evenly at that pressure as well. Others will argue differently but that is my personal experience.

roadrunner

Before you get too involved you might try a trick that worked for me. Remove battery cable, remove pass side kick panel, unplug T-case control module hidden there for a few seconds, plug back in, put kick panel back, hook battery back up, then try to see if your buttons work correctly. This is the o...

I'm currently waiting time and weather wise to put new rear disc/drums and e-brake shoes on my truck. In my case the culprit was mud accumulating on the e-brake cable causing it to drag till it wore out the shoes.

While I did it for a different reason, take the console out. It would be easy to put some "fanny padding" where the console was.
