"fires right up" LIKE A ROCK!

Great video as always Kyle! My dad years ago had a '88 Chevrolet work truck, had a box on it but no boom or bucket, and it had the 350 V-8 but only a 3/4 speed, and it was built on a recreational vehicle cab/chassis rather than a truck chassis like that truck. He loved that truck, he bought it new in '88 and it was stolen 8 years later, unfortunately.

I think this is the first video i've seen you post in which your hands get greasy just showing us the vehicle lol! I love the variety on your page man, well done!

BOOM! Trax, the streets were all over and I was really excited!

It was actually fairly common for GM to put a 4.3 L V-6 in most of their trucks during that era. My uncle Don had an 86 GMC pick up with a 4.3 in it, and I wish he’d kept it. That was a great little old truck. I am surprised that they only put a V-6 in a truck this size though.

I think it's safe to say this truck has not been pampered. The front end looked in good nick though.

A couple of cracks? Kyle, you crack me up.

Keep them coming dude... and yo if you ever find a Back to the Future Time Machine DeLorean, I will literally find YOU and give you the biggest hug ever.

My dream truck right here

I love videos of not so common vehicles

Wow and I thought I've seem them all. Apparently you just proved me wrong. I wonder whats next lol. A bus or a firetruck lmao. Keep the awesome videos coming Kyle.

I never got up close to see how a boom truck is before!

Nothing like a tour of a service truck to bring the need to wash up and change into fresh clothes, lol. Funny thing we used to have a Ford Super Cab just like the one parked beside this truck. Same exact colors, lol, Thanks Kyle.

After you find a DeLorean (there's one for sale in my area actually...in Bellevue I think...haha) I think it would be super fabulous if you found a Merkur XR4Ti. I had one of those for my first car. Good luck and keep 'em coming :)

nice truck indeed, i think with a new seat and a cover for the dashboard can be sold for a nice price, even with that pretty used engine PS: i laughed when you pumped and the small lever under the radio twisted ahaha

For this year on this car is pretty good engine

That's actually got the old GM carbureted 4.8L l-6 we had one in a old work truck GMC just like that one. Its a tuff engine too

Oh, okay...thanks!

Square body GMC/Chevy are fantastic

Can you do a cold start on a ford bronco

I wish he went up in the boom that would be cool

hey did you do a video on that old ford e van next to it ?

all you have to do is look on the sticker on the air cleaner cover and it tells what motor it is.

Kyle, I believe that would be a 250 in.³ or I can't remember if it is a 4.8 or 4.9 L in-line six in that truck. The 4.3 L V6 was not used in that particular body style because that was the "carryover "version of the GMC truck.

I had a 2 Wheel Dr. 1986 Chevrolet C 10 with the 4.3 V6 and the three speed automatic 2 Wheel Dr. it wasn’t my favorite powertrain combination as I have a 1982 Chevrolet C 10 with a 305 and a three speed with low range manual transmission. The only thing about that pick up is it was converted to propane back in the day and all of the gasoline fuel components have been lost to time long before I ever got the pick up.

Did this come from a power company?

It's kind of funny because this truck is almost in better condition then some of the leate 90's cars around where I live.

a couple cracks in the dash? thats an understatement, lol

Why are both keys square? Usually the square one is for the ignition and the round one is for the doors/trunk...

If you want to talk about the 305 engine in an old square body, I have a 1982 square body with a 305 and a four speed in it. With get this, 95,000 original miles.

@g20s10silveradoman whoops my mistake lol thanks for pointing it out dude hahaha

Yegads man, a little Armor All will fix those cracks on the dash board in no time.

a couple cracks on the dash...

im wondering the new one of these must have the same thing but newer

@celsovera91 It's called a boom truck because the arm that holds the bucket is called a boom.

Thats one hell of an exhaust leak.

Yeah, throttle body only on "89s right?

According to Wikipedia, the only two 6 cyl engines available at that time were the 4.3 v6 or a 4.8 inline 6. Since that is a V shaped engine, it has to be the 4.3.

@deathtrapgarage506

it wouldn't be a six if it's a c30. the C30 only ever had a 350 V8, 454 V8, or 6.2 Diesel.

hey could you do a 1998 pontiac trans sport please thank you

its a v8 there is 4 plug wires on the one side so unless its a seven cylinder then id expect there to be 4 plug wires on the other side as well

@Jakeman2164 Maybe because it was a half ton. 3/4 and full tons still had the old look until 91 or 92.

Are you sure is a V6 and not a V8? The interior needs re doing lol. Engine sounds good

@JakeDaSnakeFilms tes Chevy/GMC restyled teir pick ups in 1988, but cared old body style on heavy duty, duallys, and Suburbans tthru 1991.That old body style first came out in 1973.lol.

the 1973-1991 GMC Sierra was assembled in Atlanta, Georgia Baltimore, Maryland Pontiac, Michigan Flint, Michigan Tarrytown, New York Kansas City, Missouri St. Louis, Missouri Janesville, Wisconsin Norwood, Ohio Fremont, California Oshawa, Ontario Córdoba Argentina Arica, Chile

dude thats a 350.. 8 spark plugs 8 exhaust ports, and curse them if its a 5.0 in a service truck so its definetly a 350

I hate to tell you sir but you said the carburetor is out of a 5.7 because that is a 6.7 engine. You will never see a 4.3 in a truck that size unless it was modified.

Paul Nota the bearings on those pulleys could definitely use a bit of WD-40

there was an overlap between the generations. most of the trucks changed for 1988 but the old generation was kept for the crew cabs, commercial trucks, full size SUVs and i think regular cab duallies till after 1991. think the big kodiak, the real big commercial truck, changed for 1990. GM has been overlapping generations since then i think, running the old ones for 1 to a few years for certain kinds or limited runs. ford did it a couple times too even dodge did it at least once maybe twice too;

damn that ride is older than me .. lol spider confused it self with the engine

the overlap was until 1991 actually, and dont forget the suburbans;

its a bucket truck oka saabkyle01

@saabkyle04 It's funny to see this video after a 2011 aston martin rapide video....

@@deathtrapgarage506 Yeah I think your right there bud. The 6.5 was 93/93 somewhere in there. I''m not from America so I'm not too familiar with them engines. One thing GM should maybe have considered was offering a turbocharged version of the 6.2 just as they did with the 6.5, maybe they did but space, cost or something else in the engine's design meant they couldn't.

that's a 8 cylinder not a 6
