    Hissing noise at shut down???

    The reason I was given is the A/C compresser is under load. It puts extra strain on the starter.

    Hissing noise at shut down???

    It was the A/C. I rarely turn off or start my truck with the A/C left on, (something my DAD taught me long ago :D ) but today I did and just happened to have the hood up and noticed something different. I just went outside, turned it on and off several times. A/C on - Hiss :( A/C off...

    Hissing noise at shut down???

    Is it normal to have a hissing noise on the turbo side of the engine at shut down? It sounded like a raidator leak, but no dripping.

    Line of Fire LED Light Bar/Spare tire access

    Do these light bars cover up the hole for the spare tire crank? Does anybody have one of these? "Fire & Ice LED Light Bar" Fire & Ice

    VERY strange EGT's

    Well I just got off the phone with the gage Mfg. (Danin - DiPricol) they said I melted the gage and the connector! They are replacing it for free. I guess I need to use the sun shade. Phoenix SUN: 1 Dash gage pod: 0

    I sent the gage, wires and probe back to Danin Inc. in Huntington Beach. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for all the help.

    VERY strange EGT's

    A/C always off on cool down. I sent the gage, wires and probe back to Dipricol. I'll post thier comments. p. s. It's amazing how naked I feel without an EGT gage... ... .

    VERY strange EGT's

    Well I guess I spoke prematurely. It was 88 degrees this morning and I'm idling at '0', but I can still hit 1400 quickly if I'm not paying attention.

    The probe is mounted just before the turbo. But it has always been there.

    Is there ANY way to keep an '05 48RE out of Overdrive?

    tschwab, how can you say there is no problem. Everybodys towing situation is different. When I tow on certian grades the 48RE hunts all over the place. With or without cruise control. IT IS A PROBLEM for some of us.

    VERY strange EGT's

    I have just gone over 11K miles. All of the sudden my EGT's come down as fast as they go up. I live Phoenix. We are at 113 degrees today! Before when I would get anywhere I would sit for 3 or 4 min. and wait for the temp to come down to 300. Now it only takes 10-15 seconds. Whats going on here...

    180 degree transmission temp????

    Is this normal for a 20 min. drive on the Fwy, then 10 min. in city traffic? Here in Phoenix it was 105 today. Does that affect the temps? When I tow I only see 220 or so going up a grade. My probe is in the rear facing test port. Does this make a difference?
