I have been ussing Howes for the last 20k in my truck and havent noticed any change in the engine bucking problem. Just returned from ND yesterday, about 2k round trip, engine bucks in the 1400 to 1900 rpm range. Mileage was good at 19 for the trip. I still think this is some kind of an...

engine bucking Awhile back I posted regarding this problem with my truck. At the time I thought it was my EZ box so I sent it in to have it checked out. Been driving without the box for about a month and still have the same bucking just not as noticable as with the EZ connected. Its always most...

I unpluged the EZ today and the bucking dissapeared, along with that seat of the pants weeeee. Going to take it in to my 5star and let em check for any codes. I have a feeling it may be a sensor problem. :confused:

Just returned from a 400 mi trip towing 5k load and the engine was bucking all the way. Most noticable between 50 and 65 mph , seemed to stop above 65mph. Thought there might be water in the fuel so I drained the lift pump and didnt notice any water in the discharge. Anybody had a similar...

Thanks for the input guys. Im new to this diesel ownership thing and any time I see grey/blue smoke I think its time to worry (wrong). The trucks got about 5k half towing 5000 lbs. The only complaint Ive had was the first oil change was a real Grunter (oil filter on so tight took alot of grunt...

Anyone know of a reliable trans shop in SE WIS. to install a TC & VB. Installed an EZ last week and can already tell that the stock auto will be short lived without upgrades. Also have read alot on this site about Bill K's upgrades, sounds like this is the way to go. Any suggestions...

Just read the good news. DC will continue to contract with Cummins for the next generation Dodge Ram. Check www.car-truck.com

Took delivery of my truck today after about an eight week wait. This is my first diesel and this thing feels like it will tow my 5000 lb boat and I wont know its back there. Cant wait to tow this week end. I joined TDR last month after reading some of the posts on this site. This is a great...

Thanks for the help guys - time to do a little shopping ------------------

Hi guys - Got a new truck comming in about week. 2500 4x4 auto 3. 55 gears. After some breakin I plan plan to do some mild bombing. From what Ive been reading on this site sounds like the EZ would be the way to go with this truck. Wondering where you guys are buying your PE products. Any input...

Im also a new member with a 2500 turbo diesel on order. The order was sent in 2/28 and was told today by the dealer that it was in "F" status which means it is being built at this time. I hope it doesnt take more than a couple weeks to get it to the dealer cause I can hardly wait!!! Also, Ive...
