Good thoughts. If I stay with the stock pump I can't deal with the other 2 fuel tanks (100 Gallon Bed Tank + 145 Gallon Trailer Tank) unless I ran two parallel fuel systems with some valving and controls into and through a common filter system then to the engine pump. I do keep noticing comments...

FYI: We are not For Hire. We haul our own machinery. Always totally cover up the load and "Look Like" we are well under 26,000 (for what times we are well over). Make about 1-2-3 runs a month that usually includes a weekend. Our machinery is sophisticated, expensive and needs a smooth, safe...

So far I plan to use the Vulcan plumbing to draw through the OEM pump assembly. I'll connect through valves to the AirDog FP-100 Pump/Filter assembly then off to the engine. There will be a 100 gallon bed tank when needed (Plumbed-In) and connections to the trailer tank. I don't anticipate more...

Since writing the above this morning I "chatted" with Titan (Remember I'm using an S & B tank) They claim no problem because they use the OEM Sender just like S & B and it's correct at 1/2. I pointed out the lost available capacity because the gauge registers "E" yet 10-12 gallons remain out of...

Thanks for the advice. I had already concluded the lengthen the arm but perhaps there were alternatives?? (I can't be alone in this.) I will do some measuring & experimentation before installation to determine a correct arm length. Above Full isn't so important BUT Empty is very important. I...

I'm putting a 60 gallon S & B replacement tank in my 06 3500 Quad Cab Long Bed. S & B allows the use of the factory pump and sender. But there's problem because the original sender float travel is less than the height of the new 60 gallon tank. So they tell me it's only accurate at the mid point...

Well I got into it and discovered the shaft with a ball joint in both ends came off at the forward end. I ordered another ($28) and made a temp. fix. I attached a light spring at right angle to the shaft over to the battery area. This keeps the socket on the ball and it works fine for now...

Well I got into it and quickly found the problem. The throttle linkage has a shaft with a ball joint on both ends. The forward end came off the ball. I ordered another and made a temp. fix by attaching a light spring at right angle to the shaft (pulling the socket onto the ball) over to the...

Driving along this morning and accelerating from a turn then suddenly the engine RPM drops to Idle and No Throttle Response. Stopped beside the road and moved the throttle arm on the pump and no response just continued idling. So I idled down the road 3 miles (walking speed) to my building and...

Wix filter in the standard factory box. It was replaced some time back and quite clean. The filtered side of the box and tube is very clean.(The orginal I took out looked fine.) I do not know what engine oil the previous owner used. I'm using Shell Rotella 15W40 with a Fleetguard Stratapore...

Thanks for the replies, I bought an HX35 Hybrid $730 from PDR (No Freight & No Sales Tax) and will try to get it installed this coming weekend. We'll see...

Thanks for replies. I ordered an HX35 Hybrid and should get it installed this coming weekend. We'll see...

Bought a used 97 2500 12V 3 years ago with 135K miles. Good truck, Daily driver, All Stock now has 180K. Turbo bearings shot and compressor wheel drags the housing. Minor wear/galling to housing. What direction should I go? Rebuild kit plus compressor wheel and housing? What about balance (new...

Here's what I did to my 06. I removed the tank and relocated the breather tube connection to the "Higher" portion of the fuel tank. This will allow a complete fill of the tank all the way to the filler neck. It will also waste no time in delayed filling. I gained 4 gallons of capacity and as you...

Check to see where the unit is made. Dometic Quick Cool units are currently made in China and are not built like the older U. S. made units, therefore they will not withstand the over the road vibration that is experienced on a goose neck stock trailer.

The compressor determines low/high pressure same as the expansion tube/valve. The evaporator is located inside the cab and the condenser is in front of the radiator which is on the high side of the system. The accumulator (round black tank next to fire wall is located in the low pressure side of...

I Moved The Breather Tube To The Top. Added 5+ Gallons And It's The Best Thing I Ever Did. Accurate Fills For Mileage Checks. I Can Drive 80-90 Miles Before The Needle Ever Leaves The Full Pin. Highly Recommend It.

What You Need Is Silicone Grease To Transfer Heat Between Two Surfaces That Do Not Match Perfectly. Just Call Around Or Check Out Radio Shack.

I'm on the same trail for milage increases too. I have moved the fuel tank breather up to the high point in the tank adding 5+ gallons of capacity and now can fill / flood right up to the tip-top for accuracy. I replaced the stock air filter with a Wix, switched to synthetic oil in the engine...

I ran my new 2006 to 25000 miles on Rotella 15W-40 then switched to Rotella 5W-40 Synthetic. 1-2% milage improvement and everything seems fine. I'll do an oil sample at 10k probably change around 20K. I use the Fleetguard Stratopore Filters too. __________________ 2006 Quad, Long Bed, 2 WD...
