What Jim said about the diluted oil needs to be addressed first. The mechanical fuel pump is easy to change. I got a Carter from Amazon that has worked well for me.

Next, change all the fluids, belts, hoses, etc. That way you have a baseline. Then start to go through all the systems with safety your primary concern, then reliability. You can worry about comfort and aesthetics after that.

This group has a LOT of experience and is THE best place to get all the help you need. The local GMC club will be invaluable as an asset to you as well. Jim K at Applied GMC not only has all the parts you will ever need to repair and upgrade, but will spend all the time you need on the phone helping.
