1995 Chevrolet Silverado K3500 6.5l Turbo Diesel 4x4 on 2040-cars
Sanford, North Carolina, United States

1995 Chevrolet Silverado K3500 4X4 6.5L Turbo Diesel I listed this the past couple of weeks and I have since
fixed the issue that was wrong with it. AS it turns out, it was the CPS or
Crankshaft Position Sensor. I took it for a long drive today after changing it
and ran like a top again and no SES lights. I was happy wasn’t the IP. Now this truck is for sale with no reserve. I have put about
15 grand into it in the past two years yet it won’t pull my new 5th wheel and I
have already moved on to a larger engine truck. It pulled my 30 foot just fine
but the big rig I got a few months back is just too much for it and I am just
not convinced that putting this turbo, this cooler, and such is the way to go
so here we sit! Some of the repairs that have been done in the past two
years: New long block and all externals 2 years ago to include
turbo, IP, injectors, glow plugs, 130 GPM water pump, harmonic balancer and pulley,
vacuum pump, Upgraded duramax dual t-stat, duramax Fan and clutch, hoses, flex
plate, new fuel system, new lines, hoses, belt, motor mounts, new starter and alternator,
new cooler hose and cooler for oil, and new PMD mounted in front of battery.
Plus I am sure much more small pieces were added I just can’t remember. Long Block is American and was $5500.00 Motor has 70,000
miles on it. I installed a new 4” exhaust system with SS muffler about
a year ago. I installed a new radiator about 6 months ago. I installed new U joints, had new front 4x4 shaft
installed also. I had a shop install new front end parts to include
axles, hubs, ball joints, bushings, upper control arms, tie rod ends,
suspension strut, stabilizers, and all bushings related about 8 months ago. I had rear end gone through about 6 months ago by a shop
and they replaced the yolk, bearings, and seals. I installed new brakes, calipers, rotors, hoses, rear
lines to front, drums, wheel cylinders, shoes, pads, spring kits, new emergency
brake cables, and ect… about 6 months ago. Front rotors are drilled and slotted
type. I found a like new bed in Georgia in my travels so I had
a body shop paint it to truck original color and install it about 6 months ago. I installed new grill, head lights, parking lights, and
led tail lights about a year ago. I put new front fenders on about a year ago. I replaced all the heating and cooling actuators, doors,
and control unit about 1.5 years ago. I installed new glow plug harness and battery cables I
had custom made when I installed the engine. Really nice! I had GM flush fluid in trans and change filter about a
year ago. Had them check tranny and was OK. I replaced the neutral safety switch about 7 months ago. And I just replaced the CPS today! I also added a K&N air intake about a year ago or so. I put on new tires and Rims about 4 months ago. Nice mags
to say the least. I am sure there are other things I have done but just so
much I can’t remember. Oil has been changed every 3 to 4 thousand miles since
new with Rotella 15/40. What I know is wrong with truck: There is one stabilizer that needs changed, looks loose
and I will change that this week when I get it home. There is a small drip and it could be coming from an oil
cooer line connector? I really don’t know but it is very minor. Could be a
valve cover too? Not really sure. Truck other than bed needs to be painted if desired.
Doors are in good shape. Small amount of rust on rocker panels under doors. There are a few minor dents on truck that I haven’t fixed
yet. Was planning on having that done this winter while on lay off. Plans have
changed! Interior is in decent shape. Front driver’s seat shows
wear. Carpet shows some wear but not bad for a truck with 320,000 on it. Antilock brakes don’t work and never have since I have
owned truck. Didn’t bother me at all. Other than that, the truck comes as is with no
warranties. The above is fact and I believe I have spelled it out to you as to
the best of my knowledge. 4x4 works but I don’t use it. Have tried it twice and
was fine. Please ask any questions before bidding. I have a clear
title and it is ready to go. I am taking it back home tomorrow to Jamestown, TN
if you would like to see it please let me know. Comes with 5th wheel hitch and tool box too. Thanks for looking! |

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
