If you own a 1999 or newer Chevy silverado truck with the new style engine ie;4.8, 5.3, 6.0L. When my truck had about 75,000 miles on it. It began to crank longer before it would start. It got progresivly worse and I would also have to step on the gas pedal. I replaced the fuel regulator, which had a hole in the diafram and was pulling gas into the intake manifold and flooding it. A quick check is after the engine has set for 20 minutes pull the vacuum line off the regulator and see if gas drips out.

BINGO! we have a winner. One of the coupler's in front of my right foot was not fully connected. It was only out about a 1/8 of an inch. What a load off my mind. I have 62 hours on it and I thought I messed it up. Ijust purchased all my fluids and filters for my 50 hour service.

I have a 00 chevy 3/4 ton with the 6.0L gas,4.11 gears and it pulls my 4310 w/fel,BB and rake with no problem on a 18' trailer. Just have to get the tongue weight right. The chevy's are nice with the tow/haul mode on the trans. Most 1/2 tons aren't geared low enough. If you have to tow don't use overdrive and slow down a little. Make sure the trailer brakes work. I worry more about having to slow down than accel.

I'm building wood skids with casters I bought from TSC at10$ a pop for my impliments. My garage is 32' by 44' with two 9 foot doors in the front and two 9 foot doors in back.i've only built 2. one for my bb and the easy one was for my bh i just used a 2x10 with two casters for under the front and let the rear roll on the tail wheel. Haven't figured out the rake yet. I'm only doing one at a time so the cost is spread out more.
