    BJ Herzberger

    For those of you who remember BJ and Glen Herzberger, I just spoke to BJ. Today is her 96th birthday. She sounds fine and says she is feeling well. If anyone wants to call her the phone number is 217-323-5014. She says she doesn’t hear from her old GMC friends much anymore. Emery Stora 77...

    Fan motor

    GMC life on hold

    Reminds me of when I lived in Santa Fe. I had about 300 Piñon trees and 300 Juniper trees on my lot. The beetles killed about 200 Piñon in a year. There were so many dead trees in the area that they were charging $15 each to cut and dispose of the trees. Here in Colorado the Rocky Mountain...

    Door hinges

    Try a Chevy dealer. The hinge was the same as hinges used on older Surburbans which had two hinged doors on the rear. Probably late 70’s or early 80’s. You might find some in junkyards. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick CO > >> Thanks to carelessness shutting the door backing up into the...

    Batteries

    John That is not necessarily true. My 1977 GMC has a much larger cable to the up front boost solenoid and is more than adequate to start my engine. What year do you have? Perhaps a prior owner modified yours. In addition to the large factory installed wire from the rear boost solenoid to the...

    Batteries

    You really only need one engine battery up front. If it goes dead and won’t start your GMC that is what the boost switch is for — to allow you to start the engine from the rear house batteries. Some people put a second 12 volt house battery up front and run it in parallel to the rear house...

    Steering Damper PN

    I ordered one from Jim Kanomata about 3 months ago. I didn’t bother with the part number because I knew he would have the right one in stock. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick CO > > Does anyone have a good part number for the steering damper? > > Moog SSD55 is out of stock everywhere >...

    Middle age spread

    Not only are you pulling in the side but you are also lifting the roof and whatever is on it, such as an air conditioner. I have done a few of these and just pumped the come-a-long until it was in as far as I wanted. I don’t think you can break anything. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick CO...

    Installing a new Macerator

    Russell While you have it out you definitely should put in a valve before the macerator to make it easier to get it out without making a mess.

    Tid Bit. Draining your gas tanks for storage, or service

    Some people have attempted to use a hex wrench to take out the plugs and stripped them. When this happened to me I used a very small pipe wrench on the two or three threads of the plug that were exposed and I was able to turn out the plug. Emery Stora > > Drain plugs get hard to pull out if...
