    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) TPS MOD in Issue 83

    i had the same issue with modding the tps. i got it filed down to the point that i was seeing thin spots on the outside of the tps. i noticed that there was a lot of room between the tps slot and the spade from the side of the injection pump that fits into the slot. i took one of the barrel...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) harmonic damper removal

    im trying to figure out how to remove the stock damper and install a Fluidampr on an automatic transmission. the bolts just spin the motor. the instructions recomend new bolts for the installation but is that really needed? also it didnt have much instruction on the relocation of the crank...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 4 wheel Drive light not working

    in troubleshooting the 4wd light i found all the bulbs to be good by putting them in the "ABS" position and turning the key on and letting the lights do their 10 second check, i also tried the other lights in the 4wd position. i pulled the light out and put the truck in 4wd and turned the truck...

    My 97 3500 when i bought it has the air filter housing removed and a cone air filter open inder the hood. i am looking into a cold air intake and was wondering if i was missing any hardware that might be needed in the installation. the plastic on the edge of the inner finder for the fresh air is...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Pulling to the right

    my '08 grand caravan recently did this and it was a caliper. it got to the extreme, during driving it would heat up to the point of the rotor smoking, pull to the right while breaking and death wobble going down the road.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) TST Torque Plate #8 vs. #6

    i was leaning towards the #6 at 250hp. i rarely drive with hp since i hardly push it over 2000rpm in daily driving. is it torque or horsepower that tears up a trans?

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) TST Torque Plate #8 vs. #6

    my 1997 automatic with no real upgrades needs a little more pep. tst recomends the #8 at 230hp and 605torque. There is also the #6 at 250hp and 635torque and doesnt specify that it will hurt the transmission. Camping season is coming and i would like to cut some time off my travel by being able...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission door wont open 97 club cab

    Its my passenger side that is stuck. Both handles feel like they are working. The door starts to open but only a little and I have to slam against it to make it close all the way.

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission door wont open 97 club cab

    Passenger side will crack just a little but not all the way to the safety catch. The drivers door has a couple inches from closed to the catch but the passenger side moves a half inch to an inch. Any thoughts? Thanks, Justin
