    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Generator light on

    The generator light came on, started checking all the the things I thought might cause a problem.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Hot water problems

    Temperature gage has been on 0 all fall, didn't know weather it was the sending unit or the thermostat, Turned up the heat and turned on the heater and no heat, so knew right away it must be the thermostat. Got a new one at NAPA, took the old one out and it was stuck open with a rubber band that...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Coolant temperature problems?

    :confused: The temp rises to 190º then drops immediately to 140º, and jumps quickly back and forth, much faster than the engine would cool down, I put in a new OEM and it didn't change a thing it still does it. Is there anything in between that may have something to do with the quick change in temp?

    Good greif! It's 105 º, I'm motoring along at about 55 and I all of a sudden have no Throttle, engine drops to an idle and I coast to a stop. Pop the hood and see two rods hanging down one at the back side straight down and the front one looks like it broke at some threads. Too hot to do any...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Sometimes no start

    My 96 is acting weird, seems to be in the morning only, or after first startup. I start it drive it out of the garage, backup to the flat bed trailer or just run it a few minutes and shut it off and then it wont start again, it turns over good but no fire. Open hood tap on fuel shutoff valve...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Vacuum Pump oil leak

    Help! My daughter's 96 has developed a oil leak at or near the vacuum pump and says it will take $1000. 00 to fix. She is in KS and I'm in WA. I haven't had any problems with my pump so I wasn't able to help her. Her Machanic says no problem, not to worry, but an oil leak to a girl is 'awfull'...

    Truck didn't start!

    My 96 didn't start the first flip like it has always, so I ground on it a few times in short bursts, added a little fuel with the go peddle, still no fire. Thought it must be the fuel shuttoff valve so wiggled its wires and thumped on it with my knuckle, got in and it started. A'm I going to...
