The GMC was added to POCI when GM mated Pontiac with GMC from a divisional marketing arm perspective. This was back in the early 2000s. GMC is not as huge as  I'd like to see it in POCI for sure. Hopefully that can change over time. However, the current editor of Smoke Signals has done several articles on GMC as well. At our speciality chapter, that's all we try to write about in our bi-monthly newsletter - trucks and vans. 

Here is a link to a guy in Canada that machine cuts keychains.

First link comes up dead. No worries about the keychain .. I've not yet begun to look.

That's ironic.

I guess notallthere will have to show you how to do smoky burnouts in a GMC now too.

OK, brain went walkabout on me this morning .... still haven't found the time to play with her, or the cottage roof. Getting on my nerves. Letting the truck run for a couple of minutes to warm up makes the second gear grab much less noticeable. But, getting a fairly loud whine from just behind the driver's compartment.  Not finding any passengers hiding back there, I suspect the fuel pump  isn't long for this world.

 

I wonder what it would take to change the grill to a Pontiac.

SO have you ordered the new fuel pump yet - from Rock Auto?

Nope. Ran into a financial brick wall this month and found one of my beloved children has left me with a $400 hole to fill. Given that it was our anniversary yesterday, the missus is even less pleased than I. I'll be lucky to get the pump for Christmas unless I pull a bunch of overtime.

Side note ... did some more reading on the truck's brakes (4wal kelsey-hayes) and discovered that my problem may well be  in the ABS module. A low soft pedal can happen if fluid is bypassing the dump valve. Found a test method on the Phoenix site that I'll try this week.

Time to sell the kid to the gypsies?

Send me the link on the ABS module test procedure. You have me curious. Let us know how it works out for you.
