    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    I am getting a steady 18 mpg. I really am happy with the Hypertech programmer so far. As stated earlier, I am getting the overboost code and the Ecm fueling calibration error code. I have noticed the engine stumble worse when cold but this truck has always kind of done that. I am anxious to try...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) ? about water/meth install

    Matt, Sorry if I sounded upset. I dind't mean for my reply to sound like I took offense. I'm not a corporate man by any means, and truthfully I can't wait for the day I can leave that place and do my own thing. I truly despise the political games the dealerships play. Like warrantying something...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    cyborg, what kind of mileage were you getting before the hypertech was installed? What size tires and gear ratio? I have 285's and a 3. 55 ratio.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) ? about water/meth install

    Matt, I work at the dealer you took your truck to. Just for the record, I was not the tech who worked on your truck. I don't exactly get along with the tech who was performing the repairs so I wasn't really informed as to what was happening. I did know they tried three pumps and had no luck...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    It won't work on my truck (2000). My sensor is a round three pin connection. Thanks though.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) MPG and Bombing..........

    My 2000 has always gotten 15, no matter what. I recently purchased the Hypertech programmer and I am seeing 18 now. I have also put 4'' exhaust and a boost elbow on it. Otherwise stock.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    I'm going to install another pyrometer (pre turbo) and just find out for myself and put an end to the wondering what the temp actually is. This is probably the most controversial subject on this site. I was going to install the thermocouple pre turbo in the first place, but my laziness got the...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    Where can I get just a boost fooler? I am hitting about 26 psi, and egt's have never gone much over 800. The 4 inch cools things off really well, especially without a muffler, etc. I tow with mine on level three and have had no problems keeping egt's low.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    I originally bought the superchip programmer and it didn't work. It wouldn't program for some reason. I would get part way through and it would show "update required... call superchips". Well I took it back and exchanged it and the second one did the same thing. I got my money back and went and...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) truck won't start????

    Possibly an ecm. Try smacking the ecm lightly while someone else cranks on it. I've run into this problem once before and it was a bad ecm. Just make absolutely sure that it is really bled first.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Hypertech programmer

    I purchased the Hypertech programmer about a month or so ago. Truck is a 2000 Quad cab short bed 5speed. Basically stock except for 4in. exhaust, guages, boost elbow, and now the hypertech programming. I have it set at level three and am very impressed with what this thing does. HUGE difference...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fuel Pressure Guage Questions....Strange Readings

    I would suspect a transfer pump going south, or has been intermittently failing for some time.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) changing VP44 need help?!?

    You will also need the updated bolts. The updated bracket is the same which is used on 2000-02 engines. Don't try to weld the old bracket, it will probably just break again. I've done it several times and yes, it is a pain in the a$$.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) 6 Speed Removal ???

    On an NV5600 you cannot remove the bell housing without totally dismantling the transmission anyways.

    Need help on a Powerstroke Fast!

    Thanks for all the info guys. At least I know a little more about a powerstroke now. I think I'll stick to my good ol' Cummins.

    Need help on a Powerstroke Fast!

    Ok, sorry it took so long to get back on this. I was checking the truck out and found that it was very low on oil. Suspected maybe the engine was cutting back fuel due to low oil level. (long shot I know) I went ahead and changed the oil. My friend says he changes all his filters and does...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Dealer says he can't flash my PCM

    Well, sorry to hear that. If it's shifting ok now just drive it till it breaks, then go from there. Have you checked the adjustment on the kickdown cable yet, if it's to tight it may be messing with you.
