    Looks like a decent old truck. I have always liked those old square body chevys. The ones I have are 6.2 Diesels. Look forward to you getting back in shape. Thanks for the Video.

    the torque converter holds at least 11 quarts of fluid & the trans holds the rest. the carb should already be preadjusted from the manufacture. keep the clips coming

    And please replace that freeze plug if it's leaking check all the hoses and put a little RTV gasket sealer on the hoses so they don't leak

    you check the trans fluid with it running, and you put gas in the front two barrels not the back!

    Hopefully he did replace the freeze plug if that's where it's leaking from but if not he'll learn his lesson

    You don't have a lot in that truck, should be a good work truck. For now from rural Iowa.

    You need to smell the transmission pan bolts up just a little bit because the transmission gasket leaks a little bit

    The trans fluid is low right ? How about putting some in it ? No hydraulic pressure .

    • @WesFarms
      @WesFarms  Před rokem

      I have since topped it off the CORRECT way with it running, it still doesn’t shift. I’m guessing there’s an issue with the vacuum modulator/vacuum line. I have not had time to diagnose. But thank you for your advice.

      @@WesFarms you can do it ! My dad had an 1980 Cheyenne 3/4 ton with a 350 and no converter in those days if was over 8,600 gvw. Thats how GM got away with it in the 80's. Great trucks the square bodies.
