    No Feet Heat..What door?

    Thank you for the feedback. I had a feeling it was mode 2 when I watched the HT video but wasn't positive. Also hard to find the parts online except from HT. Going to have to get some quotes for cost of shop labor and look to see if I have a weekend to blow. Like I said I did the full airbox...

    No Feet Heat..What door?

    So a few year back I pulled back my dash to replace the recirculation door and air box for the Heating and Cooling system. I do not wish to do this again. 8 hrs of non fun. Now my foot vent will only put out a faint bit of air. I can get 100% vent, 100% defrost but no feet. When I try to mix...

    injector/fass/smarty jr

    Thank you everyone for the feedback. I do believe that low fuel pressure or volume can cause an issue. Since WI does like to use salt and chemicals on the highway's and roads so much that our black top roads tend to be white when snow cleared and dry, that finding a good mounting area or...

    injector/fass/smarty jr

    Just had the #1 and #3 injectors go out and leave me stranded @ 130K. Luckily I found a reputable shop with 30 miles of my house to diagnose and help me out. I decided to go with the Bosh 60HP injectors vs the stock 50HP. They are suggesting I put in a FASS system as dirty fuel and airation...

    MPG reading on display correction

    I am curious if there is a way to do a full reset on the overhead computer. When I first bought my 06 with 48K the overhead was consistantly off by 3mpg. As I put on more miles it went to 5mpg off around 100k but pending on how much town or hwy I did this would fluxuat. Now I can't find any...

    Heater Plug Time?

    Andres, Yep got all that. No issues starting at all with out the block heater, mainly plug it in to be warmer quicker and my commute to work is only 5 miles. I have the CTD for the travel trailer in summer and hauling sleds in the winter, plut it is just cool. I was deployed state side the...

    Heater Plug Time?

    Tried to do a search and could not fine the info. Here is the question? How long does the heater plug need to be plugged in to do its job? Considering the temp outside will change this lets say 10F as the ave temp. I normally just plug my truck it between uses but if I can save...

    New Exhaust...No Smoke???

    Bob4x4 and rjones, Thank you for your feedback. I like to think rjones is 100% but also figure in time there will be enough soot buildup that black smoke will start again. Wanted to make sure I didn't loose too much back pressure or could be risking running lean. EGR's are down so didn't...

    New Exhaust...No Smoke???

    So I put on a turbo back MBRP 4 inch exhaust system, no cat. Truck sounds good and has a nice low rumble at idle and slow speeds. Turbo lags less and I gained 2lbs of boost. Oo. I am currently running the smarty jr econ mode. Rest of truck is stock with 107k miles. One strange thing is...

    Double Muffler Exhaust / Any one do this

    I was talking to a Diesel parts place and going over some exhaust ideas as I want to increase my flow but the wife has limits to the increase of noise. Since we do a lot of family trips pulling the 29ft travel trailer, I have to keep her happy :) They suggested putting on a AeroTurbine...

    Truck Caps help when Towing??

    Thanks for the info. I am pulling a bumper hitch travel trailer. 11ft high. Better Aero is just a side benny I was hopeing to get a bit of. Not for MPG purposes just to help the wind drag a bit. I am going to get a Yakama rack set up for it, so maybe I can make a 'wing' to toss the air...

    Truck Caps help when Towing??

    I did a search in the forum and only found some information on the wind deflectors for untop of the truck for fifth wheelers. My question is when bumber hitch towing a 29ft Travel Trailer that is 11ft tall, would having a cab high truck cap help with wind push? I would think the extra 2...

    exhaust

    Ok, I did a search and didn't get anything back about exhaust to so here is the question. I am thinking of replacing my exhaust from turbo back. I don't want the truck to get louder than stock except for WOT. But when just idling or going through my neighborhood I don't want extra loudness...

    Cold Air Intake Article in TDR Issue 59

    OK searching to figure out if I should get an air intake system as a first mod. Right now I run a stock replacement K&N air filter and from what I hear the home depot intake system seams to be the first place to start and then go with a programmer (thinking Smarty JR) and then the CF+ Air Horn...
