Again thank you Blue. I went today to my land out in the country and took pics of my original 1984 c10 that has pretty much all the connections on it. It was a task because it was all stored up and...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, finally got a few hours to get this wiring issue a try. Blue if you don't mind taking a look at my pics of my wiring....

Cffisher,
This helps. If you need my info on my truck. Its a 1985 c10 Silverado. Single cab.

Blue,
I will wait to see if you can get me that diagram. I think having a visual will help alot.

Again, thanks for all your help. you da man.:)bowtier

Blue,

I am attaching the diagrams I used to trouble shoot this issue. As you can see some of the colors are different from what i got in my truck, so I was only able to use it as a general guide.

Man we need the rain where I am from. Seems like we are going to be in a drought pretty soon.

Blue, If your interested just wanted to give you an update since you helped me out quite a bit.

1. I think I got the alternator issue figured out. Yes I will follow your instructions and...

Blue,
Excuse my ignorance, but what is I\P stand for. I know O\P is for Oil pressure switch, but not familiar with I\P. Again, excuse my ignorance on this.

Blue,

I think your right. I miss-typed what I said about the brown wire. I found some alternator sites that states the Brown goes to the indicator light. The second wire (smaller gauge red)is...

Just in case anyone ever needs this. I found this Autozone website and it has the whole 80-87 wiring diagram for free. I don't know how accurate it is or where they got it, but it's worth a shot. ...

One additional question.

Since I have the brown wire there witch I think goes to Terminal #2, Can I get an aftermarket pigtail and connect it like a 3 wire setup and leave the white wire dead? ...

Thanks Blue, I am thinking that, but I guess i will have to get diagrams or get someone who know more about this than I do.

The truck runs good, it's just that I get annoyed when I see cut wire,...

The image with the plugs from what I can tell is for the oil pressure, I grabbed a 2 prong oil pressure switch (factory) from the scrap bin and it matches up.

I do have the batter Big Red lead,...

Well, guess it's my turn to ask a question and see if I can get some help.

I recently tore down my truck, pulled the engine and I started to tidy up the wiring when I noticed that the alternator...

What size are your Boss wheels? I have the same style but I am running 20" in the front and 22" in the rear, I wanted to run all 20" and get rid of the 22".

My want to give Vintage air or LMC a try. I know you can probably find the original A/C parts in a junk yard, but for the time and the headache of putting a used condensors, evap. cooler, orifice...

Thanks guys for your comments. I decided steel was the best. Finally found one that work good with hardly no convincing. I should be good now.

I think most headliners were a cardboard style material. At least every single one I have worked on has been, this includes several single cabs, one extended cab, and 2 or three suburbans ( no...

When you said you replaces everything, did you make sure you connected all the wires to the module? In my 84 c10 I have a black wire to the module, I made that simple mistake because I was working...

Had a few thoughts while surfing the web for engine accessories.

Scenario: weekend driver, car show going truck with about 400 hp. The occasional back up truck when the daily driver is down for...

You might be right.

Really nice work

i got the truck running now. What I ended up doing is taking out the ignition module and getting it tested. It was bad, I ended up getting a replacement and the only one they had was their house...

I did the spark test after I pulled it home, so yeah it probably cooled down, it took me about 30 to pull it home.
