1991 chevy c30 all wet

raybob · 10-28-2009, 03:44 PM

I just got a 1991 c30 that had been flooded, 350 engine. I drained the oil no water in gas or trans, Rebuilt the starter new battery, when I turn the key on it sprays gas out of both injectors, a lot of gas anyone know what I will have to replace on this truck. Trying to get it ready for a new bussiness.

By flooded you mean like underwater for a while? Hopefully FRESH water!
If so you will have corrosion setting in on every electrical connection on your engine. Start by popping every single connector & cleaning them up - both male and female sides. Any codes? Also dist, coil, plug wires, plugs - all are probably oxidizing like crazy right now.
You've got some work ahead of you to get to first base. Good luck!
