Reading through several of the fuel pump threads and seeing the attempts to find a solution brings up a question. Has anybody tried replacing the sending unit/fuel handling module with one from a gasoline injected unit and using TB low pressure (12-15 PSI)in-tank pump. I understand that it will...

If you are trying to remove a tapered stud (i. e. - ball joint, tie rod end, etc. ) from its hole there is a much easier way to do it. Pounding on the threaded end seems to be an exercise in futility and will only occasionally break them free. Take 2 big hammers and place one on the _side_ of...

Eric/Dave - Thanks for the update on how your 6 speeds are doing after a few more miles on them. I'll try to give it a little longer and not get into a full DEFCON 1 panic about the situation. I guess the only thing that concerns me is that if it should never improve, and I'm in a position of...

Mine has clashed upshifting into 3rd since I brought it home, at least when it was cold. Now it will grind going into 4th, too. If I double clutch it won't do it. At first I thought it was me. Since then I've found that if I'm cruising along in 4th and push the clutch to the floor, it will...

Just wanted to say thank you to all who have responded to my questions. I've sent an email to Kevin, so I'm sure that I'll have all sorts of info before long. Isn't this site great? Thanks again - Jason ------------------ 2001. 5 DARK GARNET-QC-SB-ETH-DEE

This has been mentioned, but perhaps I can add a little more. In my experience, I've noticed that the more inexperienced trailer backers let the truck/trailer get too far out of shape before they decide to pull forward to straighten it out. If you spend some time in a place where there are lots...

Hi - A friend has been looking for a used Cummins to tool around in, and finally found a '92 4x2 that he liked the looks of. He eneded up buying it based on its condition, as the previous owners took good care of it, although there was some initial surprise when he found that it had some 326,000...

There is a 1/2 ton Amber Fire sport 4x4 that's been sitting in my dealers lot for several months. The sales manager said that the district rep kinda forced it on him. Evidently nobody likes it and they are still trying to figure out how they are going to sell it. Funny how things work that way...

Hello. I've been quietly watching the website for the last few months to learn more about these trucks. Picked up the new truck Thursday night. Drove it to Maine and back over the weekend putting about 350 miles on it. Checked the mileage - looks like about 16. 7 MPG - including about 20 miles...

If the connectors you're looking for are the Weatherpak/Metripak type produced by Packard Electric, they can purchased through a company called "Waytek" out of Minnesota. I don't have their webpage address handy, but they do have one. I found them most pleasant to deal with and their minimum...
