Hi, I thought I had a bad fuel pump, because my Burb will start when I pour a little gas in the carb, but then stop when that gas is burned. However, when I...
Carbs are not too hard. Just keep it clean and organized when apart. NAPA should be able to get you a kit with the number from the carb. Clean parts = success...
Thanks Cliff, is there a way to determine if I'm getting enough pressure from the pump? What do I do to find out if the float is stuck and how do I free it?...
You can check the pressure by rigging a gauge between the pump and the carb. You would need a low pressure scale gauge, like 0-10 psi if possible. I'm not too...
Going through the carb isn't as bad as it might look the first time you look at it. The instructions that come with the rebuild kit aren't much help but the...
There is no inline filter, just the little fine mesh cylinder right at the intake. It was so clean, I doubt I have issues with debris. I bought an inline...
If Your getting any gas at all through the fuel pump generally i found it to be enough to keep the truck running funny thing about olf fuel filters is that...
I should also add that the last kit I got came with a float valve that had a little rubber tip on it .I used it and everything worked fine the truck sat...
Hi 6066_chevy_truck, I set up a Facebook profile where I can post my pictures, videos and events and I want to add you as a friend so you can see it. First,...
Hey guys, I have a Chevy Truck C10, 1965, 230 CI, with a 3 speed manual transmission that suddenly started "whining" in first and second gear the other day. I...
Kevin, Try draining the old fluid, yours could be all used up, when you drain the oil check for shavings and or pieces. If the fluid looks funky and you didn't...
My new to me 65 C10 is, as far as I can tell, all origonal. The heater blows luke warm in 20* and 40* weather. Of course it's a little warmer with the warmer...
This is not typical of these trucks. They will roast you, particularly if you are running a 195. Not sure why you want a 195, but that is not the question....
Yes, Boyd is right. On my 63, if anything it blows to hot. If you want a quick fix the cores are available at NAPA and not very expensive. A pretty quick...
Thanks guys Boyd, I just checked to see if there was a thermostat and the 195 is in there so I tested it on the stove and it worked as advirtised. What temp do...
Hey Kevin, It sounds to me like your input shaft bearing may be going out. It takes a lot of side force in 1st and 2nd gear, but in 3rd, it runs straight...
Hello: I wanted to join this group because I'm also in the 6066 GMC group and didn't want to miss anything. Both trucks have a lot in common and both have...

Mike: Besides the '66 GMC, we also have a '65 Suburban, but its in many pieces, in fact you can't take it any further apart without cutting something off. I...
Thanks for the reply Rick, I live in the Sacramento area (95624 ZIP code) How much would we be looking at for the purchase price and delivery? Thanks, Kevin...
Hey Kevin, Have you considered having yours gone through and refurbished? Usually, it only takes putting new bearings in one to eliminate the noises, unless...
I've got one you can have for free, but it's guaranteed to have a bad input shaft bearing, so I don't know if it'd do you any good. I'm near Modesto, so let me...
Thanks so much for the reply. I think that I will not drive it for a few weeks, and then I will hit the local junk yards, in May when I have some vacation...
