New brake shoes and wheel cylinders installed..........that wheel cylinder design is the absolute stupidest one I have ever seen., Lucky me they started it in 1979. Using a CLIP not bolts to hold the wheel cylinder in the hole.
GM actually started using that design in 1978. They used the same setup on the older S10 trucks.
I am a man that can take correction and you kind sir have set me straight. Thank you...............👍
well, I thought I'd try to unclog that fuel line that had the old fuel in it. I sprayed brake cleaner in it until it filled up, I kept topping it off
once i awhile letting gravity pull it down. I found a small wire and was able to run that down the tube like cleaning a rifle. The wire stayed
stiff enough to allow me to push but was small enough it bent in the curves. Good news, the fuel line cleared.
Now I only have how many more sections to do until I get to the fuel pump.........hmmmmso I won a battle😎 but the war is still up for grabs. 😆

Well, progress was a bit delayed due to the death of one piece of trim and a severe injury to the other side. I tried to remove the trim from the
tail lights so I could try to assess a way to get the tailights to not look pink. Well, thanks to our Arizona sun it didn't take but a bit of a turn of a phillips and you can see what happened. The one on the driver's side broke into little pieces and the passenger side cracked, I had sprayed these screws over and over, in fact I'm on my 3rd 50 gallon drum of PB Blaster................okay maybe not that much,
So as you can see I am in need of a replacement part and or PARTS. I'd like to replace both..........so if you know of someone or have these please let me know.
