DIY Bros Bagged C10 Truck Build

2 minute(s) of a 20 minute read

Finally made more progress. The truck is almost too big for the garage, I had to turn it around to get access to under the hood. First I had to make sure nothing leaked so it would stay raised long enough to push the truck around. Got it mostly there. The tank leaks a psi every few minute, which is much faster than the 5psi per 8 hour spec but good enough to roll the truck around.

after A lot of pushing finally got it turned around! Can finally see it’s face and look under the hood.

Super dusty engine bay.

Recharged the battery, looked like we have fuel and spark. Tested the injector with a 9 volt and it worked. Why no start?

Realized I hadn’t checked fuses yet, of course that’s what the problem was. Probably the reason why they tell you to check that first! No powerr to the ECM will be a problem. After a few cranks it works! We are runnin!

pulled the truck out of the garage and gave it its first wash. Still very dirty but a good day.

Now just have to properly wire in the air suspension system and hook up the compressor. Also the starter solenoid is going out so picked up a new one. Excited to do some cruising in this thing.

changed the oil too.
