misfire on #4 (p0304).
I didn't let it run long but suspect it would report the random misfire
again.  Its running way too rough to be just the #4 cylinder.

I have an 87 3/4 ton 4x4 Silverado with power steering.  I have to turn
the steering wheel about 1/4 of a complete revolution before the wheels
are affected.  The steering gearbox must have an adjustment but, there
is little to no useful information in my Haynes manual.

I have a 1999 chevy suburban and have replaced the evo on the steering column and the sensor at the ps pump and the valve inside the pump!! I still have almost no resistence when steering HELP!!!!!!!

I have a 1984 K5 with a 6.2L Diesel with starter problems.
I know it is missing the back mounting bracket. I just want to know if

I came across 2001 1500 w/V6 that's been lowered. About 1.5~2" at the
front maybe 1" in the back. I'm looking to use it for just light duty
yardwork and what not around the house. I looked under the truck.
Everything looks stock. I'm guessing the spring might have been cut at

Against very good advice I went up one tire size for my 1998 GMC Z71.  I
went to a 285/75/16.  I have had to buy new rims to accomodate the slightly
wider tire and have a different offset in the front for proper tire
