had the same thing happen to my boat trailer, but it was also the right side turn signal. Kept thinking it was the trailer and was on the 3rd rewire until I just happened to put my dads round plug adapter from a Toyota Tundra on there and everything magicaly worked. I guess the difference was...

How common are bad fuel gauges? Mine runs out when I have just a little under 1/8 of a tank, now I start sweatin when I see it get below half a tank. What is the fix for it? Thanks

put the new sensor on today and all ok. The socket size is different for the replacement sensor that you get from cummins. I forget the size socket that you need to get the old one off, but the new one from cummins uses a 1 1/16. Wish they would have told you that somewhere. The longest part was...

no mechanical oil pressure guage. I did some searching on this thread and it sounds like it is not an uncommon thing to have happen. I am on the way to the cummins dealer now and hope to have a new one on by 0900 and back on the road. The only question I have is this. I have more experience...

one last thing, is it ok to drive it like this to get it back home into the garage, or should I just leave it there? Thanks

Pulling out of Target tonight got a check engine light and looked up to see oil pressure down at 0. Stopped truck, got out and plenty of Amsoil in the system. Went back and turned the key to where the instruments light up, and pressure came up, but was on the maximum side of the white line...

thanks for the help guys. Sorry for not getting back sooner, I have been out of town and just got back. I took the bulbs out and looked at them to see if they were bad, and they looked fine, so I just swapped both lights out to the other side to see if the problem would jump over there, but both...

was wondering if any one could help out here. Truck info in sig. I was doing some work on my boat trailer lights and when I hooked it up to my truck I could not get the truck to turn over. I had it sitting on the hitch of the truck and the lights plugged in for a while before I tried to start...

For the last couple months my right turn signal no workie. I was rewiring my boat trailer and it was hooked up to my truck, but I did not have the wiring plugged in. When I plugged it into my truck I was having trouble getting all the lights to come on the trailer, so we had it plugged in and...

I dont know if this is the right forum or not to say this, but I wanted to give a big shout out and thanks to Mike at Hod Rod Diesels in Houston. I posted on here a few days ago that I was in need of some help with a lift pump and VP-44 failure that the dealer diagnosed and wanted almost 3,800...

I tell ya, when it rains it pours. Starting a new job, low pay, new kid due in April, buying a new house set to close next week... and the truck breaks. I had a new lift pump put in last Jan, and wouldnt you know it, 17 days after the warrenty goes, so does the pump, along with the injector...

First off, let me say how good it is to be back in the good ol US of A! I just got back from a 7 month deployment on the USS Abraham Lincoln (the ship is stil out, I just had to come back because I am transfering) to the Gulf. Man I love this country. God has surely blessed us here, and you...

thanks for the help guys, I will look into all those options. The biggest problem that I think I might run into is that I was told if I rented a moving truck, you cant put a vehicle transport on them that is big enough to move my truck. I could always have the Navy move me, but then I wont make...

I was wondering if anyone could help me. Right now I am on deployment out in the middle east lookin forward to kickin some Iraqi butt. But in a few months I will be returning home to San Diego and shortly thereafter moving to Texas. I need to get a big trailer to move all my stuff. So far, the...

Well sorry that I havent been able to post lately, but thats how it goes out here. Im on the good ol Abe Lincoln (CVN 72). Havent been down to the engine room, dont think they would let me touch that baby. We have an internet connection on the ship, mostly for getting email, but occasionally...
