I just picked up a '96 Sierra 3500 with the 6.5TD in it with 130,000 on the clock. I'm new to diesels but I have had a little experience with them through some of my buds who have dodges. Basically I'm going to be using this truck for light hauling, and the occasional trailer with a car, it probably a little over kill for my use, but it was the nicest truck that I could find in my price range.

Welcome to the forum.Post all of your trucks info in the signature section. A question about the 1996 truck. Does it have the dual thermostat cross over & what is the year & month of the production date ? The change over was a running change. Thanks

Welcome to the forum Stolk.............

Spend some time in FAQ's to help familiarize yourself to your 6.5 Diesel.

Go thru the diagnostic steps for a fair idea of the actual condition and requirements for any immediate maintenance.

And, list your truck specifics in your sig.
