well the truck has been in the shop gettin the tranny fixed, so ill be pickin it up saturday around noon, i cant wait...Well theres alot of work that needs to be done. I need to replace the plenum gasket and i need to figure out why when im driving the truck likes to bog down, but anways and ill be changing out my diff's fluid. And i want to chance my wires...any other things i should do??

 

cap and rotor along with those wires your replacing

 

cap and rotor...awsome..thanks man

 

if i were you i'd do them while you got the plenum out, much easier

 

any faves on what plenum gasket...i was thinking hunghes

 

hughes. aps makes the same product. pretty much same price. i haven't heard any reports lately, but some time back there were reports of slow shipping from aps.

 

good too hear you getting it back , maybe some 1.7 RR and youl be good to go

 

Felpro gaskets for the plenum and the intake. While the plenum is off, remove the TB, give it a good scrubbing. Check the DYI threads for cleaning it. Also chase the threads for the bolts for the t-stat,and grind the tab off the housing. Check and torque the Valve cover gaskets, or replace them since you have alot of open area. I could continue.

 

please do continue....i want the advice

 

Well, since you asked. Lets backtrack a little. Make sure you have all the gaskets you will need for the plenum, including a new TB gasket. Also a good time to check/replace the sensors on the plenum. Follow the DYI thread on doing a Kegger Mod for some good pics and descriptions. Also, oil change? Your gonna be tied up a bit doing the plenum, so why not? i have no idea what cash you have available, but check everything over, and replace where you can. Clean the AIC, and the TPS.

In short, the DYI Threads are your best resource. Look for topics related to what your working on.
