    How to R&R P7100

    95 Dodge 3500 with 12v engine. Needs fuel injection pump removed to access tappet cover. I'm having a disagreement over how to reinstall. I know the most proper way is with the Miller special tool. I'm not trying to start any flame wars.... Can I just pin time the pump and engine? If I do...

    Oil filter for 2018 3.5 Ecoboost?

    I recently bought my wife a 2018 Ford Expedition with the 3.5 Ecoboost engine. I'm looking for opinions on what oil filter to use. I own a heavy diesel repair shop and primarily use Fleetgaurd filters at work. I used a Fleetgaurd LF17531 for the first oil change along with Castrol Edge full...

    4g w/rear a/c?

    I'm starting to consider selling my '03 and upgrading to a '13+ and I want to know which models have a/c vents for the back seats? I already know how to quickly ID an Aisin truck. Anything else I should be aware of? I'm mostly looking for "can't live without" options. I'm pretty savvy on...

    Trans sluggish in 1st after "tune up"

    I had a truck come in my shop that I have been working on for the last couple hundred thousand miles. It had a stutter on the one – two shift and it had nearly 100,000 miles on the last service. I had one of my guys replace the governor pressure sensor and solenoid, install a new sump filter...

    2 Mic FF or H2O Sep?

    https://www.turbodieselregister.com/threads/249721-Raptor-died-Options In the above post, I settled my lift pump issues for the time being. Now I'm trying to decide whether I would be better off running a water separator before the stock fuel filter or running a secondary filter such as the...

    Raptor died. Options?

    I bought my '03 about 3 years ago with the in-tank conversion already installed. I bought and installed a kit with a Raptor 100 pump that included modding the fuel pickup assembly. Here I am with around 2 years and less than 20K on the pump and it has quit. At this point I am seriously kicking...

    Forced air "turbo" heater?

    I want to buy a diesel fired forced air heater for my shop and I'd like some feedback. My shop is 2500 square feet with 16' side walls. The insulation is fiberglass batting 4" in the roof and 3" in the side walls. The doors are not insulated. I'm looking for one of the smaller forced air...

    A little more turbo "on the cheap"?

    https://www.turbodieselregister.com/threads/228812-HE341-to-HE351-swap https://www.turbodieselregister.com/threads/248554-Wicked-wheel-2 My '03 305/555 6spd has BSM 50hp injectors, Air Dog 100, South Bend street dual disk, Mopar HD air panel in the stock airbox, and TST Powermax R49. In the...

    Wicked wheel 2?

    Wicked Wheel 2 info? I'm considering installing a "wicked wheel 2" on the truck in my signature. They seem to be extremely popular with the powerstroke crowd, but you don't hear much on the TDR about them. I'm thinking that it's inexpensive enough to try out and might just make a little...

    Fleetgaurd filter App

    While some may already be in the know and others may have no use, I wAs excited to discover that fleetgaurd now has an App. I know it's available for Iphone and I would assume for android as well. I loaded it yesterday and it's faster than the desktop version and very handy.

    Fast guide to Smarty tq & timing?

    A while back there was a discussion that explained Smarty torque managment and timing adjustments in plain English. Now that I'm on my way to owning a J06 and I have aftermarket injectors, I want to make sure I understand how to properly set my timing and rail pressure. I have a NV5600 and...

    Shop Lighting?

    I've just finished building a 50x50 shop for my business. It's a "red iron" freespan building with 16' walls and a 1-12 roof pitch. I used faced fiberglass metal building insulation and did not install any skylites. The next step in the process is to install the lighting. I'm leaning toward T5...

    Stop injector rattle?

    Has anyone found any fixes/cures for injector rattle? I bought my 03 with 240k and put new Bosch Motorsports 50hp inectors in it right away. It seems that over the last 20k, the rattle has gotten worse. It occurs around 2100-2400 RPM. That's right in my interstate cruising speed and loaded...

    A good friend has a 2007 megacab dually 5.9 4x4 48re 4.10 with 235,000 miles. The original complaint was low power and poor mileage. I put brand new bosch injectors in it from tc diesel and a new oem exhaust manifold. It ran smoother and stronger for sure , but the mileage is still way down...

    New Shop Insulation ???

    I'm building a 50x50x16 red iron steel building to run my diesel repair business out of. I've got the concrete poured and steel structure put up. The next step is to put the metal up, but I need to decide on insulation first. The following are some facts that I think are relevant to the advice...

    Experience with Earthquake impacts?

    I'm not trying to start a brand war or a discussion on buying American. I'm just curious for some feedback on Harbor Freight's line of "Earthquake" impact wrenches. I really don't trust the reviews on the HF website. It seems most of the negative reviews come from someone who bought a nail gun...

    Hybrid Tahoe Problem

    P061B is the code my wife's 2008 Chevy Tahoe Hybrid is throwing. It's for the control module torque calibration or something worded like that. It will intermittently stumble between auto stop and start and twice over the last few weeks it has stalled completely. I'm going to try to perform a...

    Looking to buy a new TV.

    In the next month or so I'm going to buy 2 new TVs. I know a few of the details that I'm looking for, but honestly don't understand much about the finer points. I'm running them off ATT U-Verse. All that I really do know is that I want HD and flat screen. I'm leaning toward LED, but not 100%...
