Evening and thanks for letting me in. Fritz here from North Carolina. I just bought a 62,000 mile 1990 5.7 C2500 Scottsdale with snowplow (why miles were so low,just used on farm & short supplies runs I was told). I have been looking around the internet on rich running 5.7 tpi motors & have seen suggestions of new plugs,wires,cap,rotor(already done by P.O.) next gonna check the temp.sensor,MAF &TPS but thought I’d join the gang here since I have wanted a nice Chevy V-8 4x4 for decades & while I was “wanting “ many of you were driving and might be able to share some wisdom to head me in the right order. Truck hesitates (like flooded) to start so I cleared the flood like on an old Quadrajet by putting the pedal to the floor while starting. That fires it right up but I have to feather the pedal to keep it going,there is a real bad exhaust leak (hopefully just the donut gasket) so hard to hear any clues,great oil pressure, but smokin excess fuel & filling the cab. Can’t even tell you how happy my wife was to see another project out there belching smoke & sounding like a dirt tracker lol. i am very excited about it though & once I tame it, I think she might even kinda like it (that’s optional though because I damn sure will! Lol : ) Thanks in advance for any advice, also gonna be looking for a reasonable source for door panels,headliner & seat (drivers manual window been off the track so lots O mold to compliment the clouds of rank gas! Ha ha). Has good bones though. Thanks for having me. Regards, Fritz

I'm looking for a radio for my 1990 GMC S15 pickup. Salvage guy found one for a '93 vehicle that looks exactly the same. Did GMC use the same radio in '93 as '90? Thanks, Rick
