    2005 transfer case problem

    i will bet the transfer case is low on oil, pull the drain plug and see if a little oil and metal come out. the seal will go out and the oil does not drip on the ground to where you can see it. the parts to fix it is $260 and takes no special tools, i have never been in the electric one but...

    P0243 Code

    like ipennock said the 110-150 resistor will stop the code but i do not like to plug the waste gate especially if you are adding fuel, it is easy to cut the hose to the waste gate and add a boost elbow and set it to 32 psi. most people do not understand how the solenoid works so when they...

    Fuel return test

    stay with stock injectors, the smarty jr removes the third injection pulse and places the fueling in the second where it belongs, the jr will get you 435 hp on stock nozzles, you already have the air, the 62-65 is the best

    Lift Pump and Injector Pump Dilemma with a 2004

    matt that truck is a jewel, it has the best of everything when they go to get rid of it you would be a fool not to pick it up, by doing a couple of things you can get over a million miles out of it

    Lift Pump and Injector Pump Dilemma with a 2004

    the cp3 pump is in no way like the vp44 previous pump, it works entirely different and low fuel pressure does not hurt it. nearly every lift pump failed on the 03 - 04 trucks that had the pump by the filter and most failed under warranty, because your truck had so few miles on it is why it...

    '05 5.9L P0088 help

    the fca must rattle when shook, try break cleaner instead. and you are not going to find anything wrong with the fuel

    '05 5.9L P0088 help

    Boost test

    brods that is what i get for trying to do math in my head instead of the calculator

    Boost test

    do not worry about plate or tdc, use a regulator before the valve and we found we needed to modify the the end of the tube to keep the hose from slipping off, we used plastic so it was easy enough to cut groves, you will need to weld a bead around the tube and weld a safety chain to it also, if...

    Intake & Manifold

    the stock intake is better than aftermarket and will not cause your problem, nicsaac brought my attention to the edge juice, it has ruined many engines in trucks that tow, the peak cylinder temp gets so high it crystallizes the piston top and the top ring breaks especially on the #6 piston...

    Misfiring 5.9 engine without any codes yet!?

    the filter should ONLY be changed when the pressure to the cp3 drops to about 2 psi under load, your truck had a bad run of solenoids on the injectors, there is two plugs with 3 injectors on each plug, unplug them and test each injector with a ohmmeter, they should read about 0.5 ohms, if one...

    BD Boost Fooler

    the boost fooler does nothing for your truck, the turbo is undersized, if you upgrade to a 04.5 turbo it will help

    BD Boost Fooler

    the 03 and early 04 engines use a hx35 turbo with a mechanical wastegate the boost fooler does nothing for them, the 04.5 up uses a hx40 with a combination mechanical wastegate set at 20psi and a solenoid that can increase the pressure from a 5 volt width modulated signal from the ecm, the bd...

    P0299 Disaster

    I MADE A COUPLER THAT FITS ON THE Intake of the turbo that i can charge with air, i set the pressure at about 15 psi and can check the entire intake in a few seconds, if nothing shows up remove the turbo and remove the exhaust housing, check the wastegate and the turbine blades, i think the gate...
