So I was driving back from work tonight, and my truck was suddenly possessed. My first thought was "Oh F***!!!! Runaway!" but it didn't happen. Didn't happen again, and I'm still scratching my head. Situation: Engine was warm (just about operating temp); Comp was turned OFF. I don't have...

Here's to all who went before me, my friends back in Iraq again right now, and those who will follow us. Happy 232nd Birthday, Marines! Semper Fi.

I was having some cold weather induced problems with my Comp the other day, and was searching for solutions. One of them was remove the Comp from the switched power source, and another was cycle it a few times to get it to work properly. So tonight I wired it from a secondary (aftermarket)...

Does anyone have a source for the five bolts that secure the electronics cover on the VP? They originally were tamper-proof Torx, but mine got pretty chewed up in the process of removing them to install my BD pump cover. I managed to find some hex head bolts, but had to cut a slot in them...

I can't remember where I came across this, but it looks a little too good to believe. Diesel Secret Energy - Alternative Biofuel Biodiesel I didn't have a long time to look at the site, but it seems like you take filtered WVO, dump in their special sauce, and poof, your truck is running on...

I'm trying to find a BHAF, but not the standard size. I guess it would be more of a SAF (small air filter). I can't find any sort of parts books online, but maybe someone can figure out what it will cross reference to. Used to be a K&N RC-4650 RC-4650 Product Specifications Product...

Hi All- We have a new guy in my unit with an 07 Duramax. It's his first diesel (hey, I didn't pick it for him... . but it still burns the #2), and he says it's due for it's first oil change. Of course, I told him I'd be glad to help him, even though it takes away from my drinking time...

So here's the latest thing... . I drove home this past week (about 1500 miles round trip). Heading home, I noticed that when I would drive for a few hours, then stop, my truck would not idle back down to ~850 rpm... . it would stay right around 1000 rpm. I still haven't tapped my pump wire, so...

I think I fried my horn today. I replaced my clockspring (again), and I think I tightened the bolts on the back of the wheel a little too much (didn't have a torque wrench that could read down to 7 lb/ft). The horn came on as soon as I hooked up the battery, so I loosened them and everything...

The other day I noticed the lights behind the "2" and "3" on the faceplate of my stock head unit (radio, CD and cassette) wouldn't turn on with the rest of them. I assume it to just be a burned out bulb; is there any fix for this, or should I just live with it? Everything works fine, it's...

Some of you who have been in the military may have wondered this same thing... Is there any easy way to turn up the power (whether it be via fuel or whatever) on the GM 6. 5 turbo diesels? I'm a couple of months away from my second tour in Iraq, and our wonderful M1114s, equipped with the...

Hi guys... . I got my Edge Comp in the mail today. I got through reading the manual, and I have an extra wire. Well, I know it's supposed to be there, but can't figure out exactly what it does/where it goes. At the end of the harness is the wire that attaches to the VP pump wire (spade...

Can anyone tell me the factory color/s used for the lower half of red two-tone trucks? My rockers/doors are starting to rust some, and I was thinking about Line-xing them instead of repainting (after properly killing the rust, of course). Like I said, I have a red truck, and I don't want red...

Does anyone know off the top of their head what size/type bolts are used to mount the cast exhaust elbow to the downpipe on the 01 HO engines (didn't know if it would make a difference)? I need to take them off to mount my new downpipe, but looking at them, I doubt they'd make it off in one...

I found out my lift pump died the other week when I finally hooked up my FP gauge... it would start at 15 psi, then quickly make its way down to 2 psi, and then 0 when I got over 1800 rpm. Knowing there was something wrong, I ordered up a new stock pump (as much as I wanted to, I don't have the...

While driving around the other day, my air bag light came on, along with the aggravating dinger (maybe it's trying to tell me something's wrong?). It went off and on for about 10 minutes, then stopped. Two days went by, now today it's started again, but a little more frequently. It seems as...

Hi guys- I'm supposed to go pick up a truck for a buddy of mine in about two weeks, and had some questions about towing it (I plan on using a flatbed - the truck itself won't exactly handle I-95 and 500 miles right now). It's a W250 4x4 standard cab, long box, gasser :rolleyes: It's going...

Hi Guys- I recently purchased my truck after spending plenty of time researching stuff on the TDR, so thanks a lot for what I found. Anyway, I knew I would need a new exhaust system soon (six winters in upstate NY), but it turns out I need it a little sooner than expected - my tailpipe fell off...
