Hey all! I'm the new owner of a '91 GMC Jimmy 4door 4.3 4x4 auto(whew!) with 167+++. I've already done some maintenance to the 'warwagon', here's the rundown:
flush all fluids
plugs(except one, you already know which)
wires
cap
rotor
have EGR and IAC but have not installed yet
battery(optima redtop)

It needs:
starter shimmed(wasn't installed right)
suspension(lift kit)
offroad tires(the allseason radials with >50% tread got to go)

I must say, the offroad abilities of these rigs are outstanding. I purchased this for a camping/winter rig and I think its perfect for that.
I hope to learn alot about this rig through you guys. I plan on keeping this rig for several years(hopefully). Ive attached some pics from my first outing, enjoy!

Thanks everyone! ABN31B, I was in the mountains by detroit lake, just past britenbush hotsprings, it gets snow there pretty quick. I'm not sure of the alt. but I know detroit lake is around 2,000 ft., awseome camping in the summer if you ever make your way up that way!
