    I need opinions on gauges!

    I got my ISSPRO gauges from Scheid Diesel in Effingham and I love them, havn't had any trouble with them. The only thing that I wish would be different would be better consistancy in light between them. I've been very happy with the overall quality of the gauges though. ------------------ '94...

    auto trans cooler lines

    The job is more akward than it is a true pain. My truck is 4x4 and I was putting in a trans temp sender with a "T" fitting so my line wasn't just a direct replacement. Those 2 things along with the temp being around 15 degrees were what made my replacement the toughest but it doesn't take a...

    EXHAUST

    It depends on your options and personal prefrence more than anything. I'm very mildly bombed and I have 4" turbo to tail but I did it more for the sound and the fact that it was available at the time. The whole system was only $396 delivered so I couldn't pass it up. Like Cooker said you really...

    Trans sensor bypass

    I thought about doing that when I put my trans temp gauge in but I don't think it'd work well with our winters. If a resister was put in then it'd lock up the same @ -10 as it would @ 90. Mother Chrystler made it shift in at a certain temp for a reason, that's why I put another sender in the...

    Help! Dodge Cummins in boat

    Only 1 thing left that Adam didn't cover in his post, that's the max RPM. When I was at CMEP last year they said that the B can run at 3K all day long even though it's where the tach turns red on our trucks. When I was at Scheid Diesel getting some work done they found a bent push rod. They...

    WOW AUTOWURKS DIESEL

    Well as far as someone making a good one ???????????. As far as how much you have, well it'll just get worse and the best way to do it is the way you do it on a bike (use your trip for a fuel gauge and fill up when you get to a certain milage). The change really isn't that bad. I just did mine...

    Auto Trans OR TPS?

    Sounds exactly like when all of my TPSs have gone out. They're really easy to change, I'd do it myself if I were you. Even though it's nice and little it's still not cheap so I don't see paying labor on top of parts cost. Just my $. 02 worth.

    Drivers side door speaker for a 98

    Where you'd get a new speaker depends on your sound system. If they're the ones with the attached amp that the Infinity sound system has I'd check all the junk yards in a 50 mi. radius. Those speakers are $200+ from the dealer. Just my $. 02

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Intermittent Starting Problems

    It's not just our starters that do the nifty one contact bad one contact good trick. The same design has been used in other applications and does the exact same thing. The contact that goes to the battery always wears at least 75% quicker. Just the nature of the beast is I guess...

    BAD Idle

    I agree that the screw isn't right especially since you aren't the orig. owner but those symptoms are exactly like when my overflow valve went bad. I hope you find the problem (and soon) ------------------ '94, 2500, 4X4, SLT, 3. 54 gears, Prime Loc, Silencer ring in the tool box, DeeZee bright...

    how to adj. turbo pressure??

    Gauges come first, that's the smart way anyway. As far as turning up the boost, well when you add more fuel you get more boost as the engine compensates for more fuel. I have my stock plate forward and I'm pulling almost 30 psi which is about where the wastegate opens up. Hope this helps. Keep...

    Brake Pedal bump.

    My truck doesn't do it but I've seen this with my parents' truck. Since mine's a '94 and theirs is a '99 I think it must have something to do with the brakes using the power steering pump. Theirs doesn't have any other noise to go with it though . I'll suggest the synthetic fluid to them if...

    Proof that 12V's Rule!!

    Affecting fuel milage is where a boost gauge is really nice. Boost is an inverse correlation with fuel usage so if you keep your boost down your milage will be much better. Now if I could only follow my own advice [This message has been edited by Kunze (edited 12-31-2000). ]

    injection pump timing

    Well, as far as the EPA is concerned, they should be happy for us to adv. the timing. My '94 smokes less with the timing @ *15 than it did with the *11. 7 that it had before (supposedly *12 from the factory). I had mine done @ Scheid Diesel in Effingham Ill and I came from Cedar Rapids Ia. They...

    Fan Clutch removal

    Another thing I'd try would be the new strap wrenches from Sears. I got my dad some for CHRISTmas but havn't been able to "test" them yet
