Good afternoon everyone. I'm having some trouble finding mechanical gauges. Lots of websites don't specify, or only carry 1 or 2 of the gauges I need in mechanical form. Anyone know where I can get a matching set of 2-1/16" black face white letter 100% mechanical gauges for fuel pressure...

Good afternoon everyone, and happy friday! Quick question about the Heat/AC blower switch. Here lately, when I have the blower in high, it will sometimes just stop. If I move the switch down slightly, not quite to the next detent, it'll start blowing again. The 3 positions below high all...

Hey all, I usually hang out in the first gen forum, but I've been toying with the idea of getting a 3rd gen instead. Looking at the pre smog 5.9 Cummins trucks. Much more aftermarket support, and it'd be a lot more livable day to day. Any particular things I should look out for when...

Good evening all, When I turn on the parking lights/headlights, the left turn indicator comes on solid green. When I turn the blinker on, it flashes as normal, but stays on when the signal is cancelled. Anyone got an idea what could cause this? Only stays on when the headlights are on...

I just got the FarFromStock 2" leveling kit put on, and now my truck sits up really nice, almost like a stock 4x4 truck. Need some bigger tires! I know the back is sagging, our wonderful postal service lost my blocks. Been missing for 3 weeks, and the shipper can finally file a claim today...

Good afternoon everybody, I'm going to see about getting some more power this weekend. Actually, I was going to do it today, but the boost reference banjo bolt snapped when I went to remove it, so I put the project on hold until I could get a new one. Are there any other fragile parts that are...

Hey everybody, got a question about towing. My friend's truck broke down, and he's got a vacation planned this weekend. His camper weighs around 8,500 lbs give or take fully loaded with all his gear. I know that's right at the limit for these first gens with the automatic. How do they do...

Good evening all, One of the rubber hoses that go from the metal line to the front aux. cooler gave up on me tonight (thankfully it happened 2 feet into my driveway after I'd been driving 100 miles in the boonies). From what I'm reading, these should be 5/8 hoses, but the ones on there now are...

Has anybody used their bumpers for the first gens? Some guy in a cadillac thougth he could fly over from the far left lane doing 90 MPH and pass me on the right, but he didn't realize there was a car 3/4 of a cadillac length ahead of me in that lane. Folded my bumper straight forward when he...

Is the valve just supposed to leak in these trucks? This is the 3rd one I've put on, and they all leak in the exact same place, right at the tip of the plastic tube. Not from where it screws into the filter itself, but from the very tip. Steady drip, just over 1 per second. That adds up to...

Good morning everyone. I am trying to put in my new VSS but it doesn't want to fully insert into the transmission. I can feel that the square shaft has gone into the drive hole inside because I spun the sensor and it sunk farther into the Trans, but it won't go all the way. Is there some...

My overdrive has been acting up the last couple days. Sometimes it won't shift in until later than normal, like 40 mph. Sometimes it won't engage at all for miles and miles, then just start working. Sometimes it'll go in and out. Cruise control does not work until it finally holds overdrive...

While diagnosing a vacuum leak, I tested all of my hoses, but never thought to test my vacuum pump for leaks. When the truck is runing, it's pulling a stead 28 in/hg, only fluctuates when I rev the engine. But when I turned the truck off and hooked my vacuum tester directly to the nipple off...

While diagnosing a vacuum leak, I went to pull this line off whatever this little gizmo is, and the nipple broke off. Anobody know what it is? It's on the driver side inner fender just below the hood hinge. Am I correct to assume that it has been discontinued for 20 years and made from...

Good morning all, Recently, my truck has developed an intermittent problem where the volt gauge will go from 10 to 14 volts. It seems to have a certain pattern, it'll go to 10 and stay for a few seconds, then go to 12 for a few seconds. When this happens, my dash lights will dim, but nothing...

Is this possible to do? I know they redesigned it specifically to clear the intercooler, but can it be modified somehow to fit without looking bad? The more I look at the old style front end, the better I like it. It just looks right for these trucks. What all would I need to get aside from...

Can sombody take a picture of the correct place to install a fuel pressure gauge sensor on the VE pump trucks? There are 2 different banjo bolts after the fuel filter that I can see. I have had nothing but problems with my fuel pressure gauge since I put it on, and I'm thinking that maybe I...

My Brake and ABS lights are staying on after the self test, sometimes. They will usually go out after I drive a little bit. They will also randomly come on while I'm driving. Brake pedal sometimes becomes very firm like there is no power assist, but the truck still stops easily, it's not like...

I'm about to do my KDP using this video tutorial: (This guy and DecentGarage are both excellent sources for video tutorials on these trucks. Very well done videos. Filming is great, and they take the time to explain everything thoroughly. All the other first gen videos out there are just...

Has anyone put on the Cummins HVLP pump? If so, what's your impression of it? The store I got it form claims all kings of things, like more power, lower EGTS, better fuel economy, less smoke and such. I'll be doing a few performance mods in the near future, so I figure that I might as well...
