Well, let's talk about it. All kinds of big power numbers are out there, regarding the 2025 Cummins. I'm good with that, but still hesitant about emissions on the newer diesels. Also, I don't know how reliable switching to glow plugs will be.

I've been around for a while and have seen old timers, in the 70s and 80s, clean carbon build-up from the cylinders, pistons, and valves. I have seen it on gas engines, and have heard they did this regularly on Diesel engines. Basically, you have a pint to a quart of distilled water, take the...

2006 4x4 After 18 years, it seems it is time for some new shocks. The factory ones are very harsh feeling, and I want something smooth. I don't need anything fancy, or overly complicated. I just want simplicity, and economical. What are you guys running? What would you recommend?

2006, 189,000 miles, with original everything on the engine but the water pump. 1 owner. Now, over the past few years once in a while, I would have a hard start. It wouldn't start on the first try, but easily started the second time . This only happened once every 4 months or so. Now it is...

My 06 steering wheel is looking a little worn. Not torn up, just a lot of the died/painted sections are aged. I've used conditioner on it over the years, but 17 years have taken its toll. I was curious as to what solutions members have used to fix this issue. Ideally, I would love to have...

I noticed, a couple of days ago, that water was dripping from under the truck. I replaced it 6 years and 30,000 miles ago. So, I was hoping it was the pump. I drove it again, the next day, and nothing. It wasn't until it was fully warmed up, that it started spewing from under the truck. i...

Has anyone used a diesel catalyst converter cleaner? I know Dura Lube sells some specific for diesels. I don't have any.issues, other than decreased mpg over the years, and my truck has a little over 186,000 miles on it. Also, I rarely load it down with anything heavy, so the engine is never...

I had the a/c system replaced 7 years ago, and it has had a very slight leak, requiring a couple of pounds of Freon, each summer. I use a gauge, and install Freon myself. Last week I noticed the a/c wasn't working. I thought it was time to add more. I checked, and it showed the pressure well...

My 2006 2500 has always been a noisy engine. But, over the years, the Lifter Clatter has been getting worse. At about 120,000 miles, I had the valves adjusted, at a Cummins Repair site in Houston. It really didn't help much. When I would put fuel additives in, that were lubricity and Cetane...

I decided to use Beamtech H13, LED, fanless bulbs. Plenty of very good feedback with these. Almost all stated there were no issues with flickering. I was hesitant, because in 2006(the year of my truck), they changed the lighting electronics. Sure enough, I got the dreaded flicker. But, for...

So, my 2500 received new headlights, a couple of years ago, when it was pretty much parked all the time. I only used it once every 3-4 months, for about a 4 year period. The original headlights were so faded, and micro cracked, that they couldn't be repaired, and just looked ugly. I put some OEM...

I have issues, every time the weather gets cold. Its the small 2.5-3 inch red hose, that is on the passenger side, connecting to the heater. I believe they call it a lower heater hose. For the life of me, I cannot get to it, and don't see how to replace it, without taking a lot of things...

I have a 2006 4x4 5.9 with 185,000 miles. I have owned it since new. Very few issues. But, I started it in the rain yesterday, and things didn't work. No Windshield Wipers No Turn Signals No Radio No A/C, or Blower Airbag Light On It ran fine, and the headlights worked. I pulled into an auto...
