This is not uncommon. Even at a Flying J where you would think they would be experienced I have had to tell them to open the vent before starting the pump. I never fill my tank unless I carefully watch them doing so. I had to get the manager involved once when the filler refused to listen to...

It has been pointed out to me by a very knowledgeable GMC owner that doesn’t post here that I had typed the part number wrong. It should be 394777. I somehow dropped off a 7. He also provided me a diagram that he had made of the bolt and washer many years back. I have posted it to the GMCMH...

Hi Mike I’ll try to be there for your 100th. When will that be? I hope I last that long. I am 75 today( Jan.6) but I find my parts are starting to wear out! Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > > Netters > > I had more than one laugh with Dan . As others have said, a great guy! > > I...

Jim Hupy — You are very positive in your reply but please show me anywhere it says they are different lengths. I have checked the maintenance manual and it doesn’t say anything about the length. It just says to use new bolts and torque them to 75 ft lbs. I checked the parts book 78Z and on...

Hi Karen The crates that we ship with our equipment has never been a factor in selecting a site. By having our own equipment we have found that we can keep the cost of a convention down considerably — much more than the cost of storage and shipping of our equipment. The main reason that we...

It just occurred to me that some of you might not be aware of and one thing that has not been mentioned here is that when GMCMI uses a convention site we tie it up for a lot more than the 6 days of our convention. For example the Tuscon convention will be held from Friday Apr. 6 to Thursday...

That is also known as an Autolite DL7157. It has been sold by various auto parts suppliers including Checker, Schucks, Kragen, and Murrays.. These companies were part of CSK which was acquired by O’reillys in 2008. Some of those names are still being used but are O’Reillys. For example in Ft...

Someone had earlier posted the question as to why more information is not being posted here about various GMC clubs activities such as rallies, schedules, etc. It has been brought to my attention that apparently the administrator of this site had decided some time ago that postings from Kim...

Carl If you read the reply that I sent to Karen you can see that the reason for starting on a Thursday (what you call a schedule shift) was not to accommodate working people who want to attend the weekend portion. If was done to allow us to basically find sites that would accommodate us. Over...

Karen Having managed the GMCM conventions for several years I can tell you that starting on Thursday was NOT an effort to get younger people to come to the conventions. Starting on a Thursday usually makes it possible to even reserve a site. That leaves a Fri, Sat and Sunday at the end of our...

Rob Just about any auto parts store in the US will take used antifreeze just as they will take used motor oil and transmission fluid. There are services that come around to auto parts stores and pump out their tanks of use material. Some even pay the store for it. Bob has already checked that...

The radiator cap should also be tested. Most only last about 2 years. The spring weakens as it opens and closes thousands of times on a trip. And the rubber seals deteriotate over time. I have a Stant pressure gauge that I use. It can also pressurize the radiator cold so it can be checked for...

You might be confusing the definitions of eutetic point and freezing point. Not many people call it the eutetic point as it is commonly referred to as the freezing point. Each mixture of ethylene glycol and water would have different points. A 50% /50% would have a -34 F freezing point and...

I would think it might depend on your definition of damage. You are not likely to crack a block but you might pop out the freeze plugs which can be a bit of a job to replace. Emery Stora > > Emery, > > Thanks for setting us straight. From long ago, I recall that if you are protected to...

YES Emery Stora > > I've never thought about this before. The neighbor that lives across the street is serving in the Middle East now. I got an e-mail from him about his truck that's sitting outside. He thinks the antifreeze is at +5. Our highs for this next week are to be between -2 to -10...

The return air ducts are just as important The original GMC Have. 4” duct from the furnace leading to the rear corner without a grill on the end. Many think this is a disconnected heat duct but it is meant to draw cold air from the rear into the furnace. Emery Stora > > Mine is the wrong...
