Why does truck shut off when warmed up about 10 min?

I would be looking at the coil and ignition module. Check the plugs first for corrosion. Since coils don't come back to life that quick. I would remove the module and have it checked, call first. Some parts stores can still check them.

Turns over but won't start?

how fast it turn over did you check the voltage in the battery? if you did check to see if there is spark at the plugs if there is spark check to see if it getting gas if you are getting gas remove a spark plug and check for compression by using a compression tester if you dont have a com/tester stuff something in the spark plug hole and roll ove the engine and it should blow out with force that will hit the hood hard then after checking all of the cylinders and they all seems to have good compression check your spark plugs if they are wet with gas replace them they may be faul out change them and you should be on your way

Why are brake lights not working?

Check the brake switch (although I don't know exactly where yours is located....start near the pedal). When you find it make sure the pedal actually operates the switch and it hasn't come away from any fixing point and try to manually operate the switch and check your lights. Some switches operate by being pressed by the pedal operation and others by a spring that pulls the switch. If still no lights then short out the wires and see if the brake lights work then. If they do then the switch is faulty. If not then it is a wiring issue.

4.3 V6. Engine stalls while at stop light. Will start and run for a couple of seconds.

Sounds like fuel injection issues. Could be the injectors, could be the clogged filters, or dirt in the tank. Could also be electrical problem, related to the alternator. If the battery is weak, the alternator is probably bad. Check those first.

Stalls when put into drive or reverse

Your idle air controller may be failing. Begin checking for stored codes using a code reader, and progress to standard troubleshooting steps such as checking spark, fuel delivery, and operation of the intake air control circuit.

1994GMC6.3FUELPUMPWILLNOTCOMEOINGUNITN iREPLACEDOILSEND

GMC loves to eat fuel pumps for breakfast. They burn up and short out all the time... Especially with older models like yours... Check fuses and relays... Make sure it's wired right... If that don't work... Take the pump out and install an in-line fuel pump. If that's not for you... You can try a direct 12 volt connection to the in tank pump and put an on/off switch in the cab... But don't forget to turn it off every time you shut off the engine... I did that with my old S15. Good luck.

How do I remove the door assembly on a 1994 gmc Sierra k1500

Hello,

There's in usually two ways to remove a car door. Either the hinges bolt to the frame of the car, OR they bolt to the inside of the door. In some cases they are welded in place, but that's pretty rare. If you can open the door, look in the door jam snd you should see the bolts. If you don't, try removing the interior door panel and look on the inside of the door (towards the front) and you should see them there. I'm sure the window frame will have to be in the "up" position. Good luck.

Replace alternator in 1994 gmc Sierra and now my battery voltage is high. ..why?

It depends what you consider high voltage. It could just seem high because it was too low with a bad alternator. What voltage is it running at?
