    1985 gmc brigadier turn signals not working.

    Yes. It's a pull tab that you pull out for the hazards then you can push it in and they shut off.

    Yes, all seem to be fine. Cleaned them and put them back together.

    Nice looking little machine. Sounds like they were good machines. I just wonder how difficult it would be to get parts although if International made the engine it might be easy for that...the pump maybe a little more difficult but maybe not...?

    Hough 930

    Guy has one of these for sale although not sure they made a 930...Never had any experience with them but looks to be in good shape. Has an international turbo diesel. Are these good machines and are they easy to find parts for? Looks identical to a cat, wonder if parts would be similar or...

    Ok, so found it and got that replaced thank you very much! Now my left turn signal is working but when I turn the right turn signal (where the fender is messed up from the blowout) the hazards come on and everything flashes. I took the left side apart (the good side) to check all the wires and...

    Hey, Blinkers aren't working on this truck. The lights work, brake lights etc. There was a front passenger tire that blew out and tore off some of the fender (before I owned it) but all the wiring seems to be good there as the light works. The turn signal handle on the steering column clicks in...

    Doesn't seem to be any in there at the moment and was going to replace the filter on it so figured maybe I'd be ok to put 15w40 in there once I do that. I can't get any to register on the dipstick unfortunately.

    I was told buy an old cat mechanic don't mix coolants and don't ever put water in that isn't distilled...? Said even on a flush when you are going to let it warm up. Only time you could do that is if you were just running the hose to clean something out but the drain was open and it wasn't going...

    Any of you guys run 15w40 for power steering fluid in these? Have an old dozer that runs that for everything. Sure is nice when you go to service that thing as you only need one oil and you're set. Wish they were all like that haha.

    Thank you Sir! Drained the coolant this afternoon and just looks like dirty water. Going to throw some distilled water in it and run for 5 min and drain...do it a couple cycles to see if it clears up before finishing it off. Crazy what a little steam cleaning, washing, elbow grease and armorall...
