    Check Off list for new motor

    I can think of a few things off of the top of my head. There items ore optional, in my opinion worth changing while you have the engine apart. Timing Chain-water pump- seen bolts where listed but not items themselves. Also I would recommend buying a fel-pro One peice Oil Pan Gasket...

Now here is a diagram of how your...

    Where to buy walbro fuel pump locally?

    Just as headline says. In need of fuel pump. Have heard good things about walbro here and in many other searches. Dealer is out of the question, I'm also going with the 155 LPH due to slight mods to come this winter. So I would like to have one by Tuesday morning, but don't want to spend an arm...

    No juice to starter?

    :damnit: The name had slipped my mind; thank you. I might want to add not to do this in gear. The vehicle will pop forward on you. If the ignition is turned to the on position the vehicle may even start and take off, not a good scenario. If the starter does engage when you do this, then your...

    Holy crap, that diagram is exactly what I have been searching for. I have book marked their homepage www.veryuseful.com. All I need to do now is crank and see if the voltage on pnk/blk stays at output. At key on engine off, It spikes to max voltage for about .5 seconds then drops to almost nil...

    No juice to starter?

    you should have power to the starter. The wire as you probably already know runs directly from the coil (for lack of better terms, Name has slipped my mind at the moment.) I'm willing to bet it's the neutral safety switch. I'm not sure, I don't have access to a diagram, but it's probably in a...

    Is the FP relay easy to access under the seat? I am not able to pull a schemuatic, but am I correct in assumming the power flow is thru the FP relay, then to the inertia switch? IF this is so, couldn't I kill three birds with one stone? basically, Rather than finding the FP relay to be good...

    radiator hose modifications

    I don't like cutting the radiator in the center and repairing idea. You could go the cheap way out, but it could end up nipping you in the butt later. If you don't want to have to go the speed shop or pricey route then I like Dman's idea of looking at various hoses at the local parts store...

    O shhit!! Wat Did i DO??

    agreed, Pulling your plugs will tell you if anything big got sucked in. (likely a plug would be bent or damaged in some sort of way. If one is damaged take a borescope to look into the cylinder. if it is a mas, simply hook it back up take tape the crack and see if it starts. The engine cranks...

    Antifreeze no longer available?

    Found the green-no blend 100% antifreeze.--no it wasnt prestone or anything. Good ol' valucraft is all I could find. Never really cared for the GM dexcool. Hope the yellow stuff isnt similiar. Seemed when I worked at the oil shop they tend to run around a quart low per around 10,000 miles. Not a...
