Re: 1978 Chevy K20 longbed with nearly 500,000 miles! LS Swap begins!

Well, here’s the biggest update yet! IT RUNS! I brought my laptop home and temporarily installed the O2 sensor, set a basic profile in the Holley software, and it fired up immediately! I ran into a few initial setup issues, including a fuel leak, but it runs great and holds 45 psi of oil pressure at idle! This video doesn’t do it justice, but it runs!

I also ran into a weird issue before starting the truck, I had an odd smell that seemed like a burnt electrical smell, but I couldn’t pinpoint it. After watching for a while, I finally noticed a faint puff of smoke from the wiper assembly. I popped the cover off and it seems like a coil melted! I’m not sure what would cause this, except maybe just an old part?
