    In this video I start to work on my new to me 1997 Chevy Suburban. It puts up one heck of a fight trying to get it runnung after sitting broken for years. I also install new quarter window glass and get started cleaning up.

    It's amazing how replacing the broken glass made truck go from looking like a heap of junk to generally decent and presentable.

    I have had a 1998 k1500 sitting in my driveway for 2 and a 1/2 years.
    This video got me to get-up-and-go outside and change the coil and it fired right up. Thank you, sir. Keep up the good.

    Sorry you're feeling so rough Aaron, but you made it on through. The coil may have made it crank, but it sure needed that new injection system and all the other tune up parts you put on it. As good as the oil pressure and compression is, it should run good a long time. I really enjoy the videos and been missing them. You take care of yourself.

    • @HarmonGarage
      @HarmonGarage  Місяць тому

      It sure did need a good tune-up and the injection upgrade. Thank you for your continued support Junior. Have a good one

    Idk how good it would help but iv been told that charcoal will absorb odors open a few bags of charcoal in that thing might help idk I never tried it but a friend once told me that thats what they do in houses where someone had passed away an been there a while an they have that dead body smell that charcoal helps so maybe it’ll work for whatever you have in there as well but I’m sure that thing will have to be steam cleaned like a mother
