Well I got the fuel plate ground down. I ground it flat and slid it all the way forward. I LOVE the performance and the smoke it puts out. But if I say on it through 5th, the EGTs are wanting to shoot over 1400. THe boost went from 24 to around 30 something. I didnt do anything to the turbo...

When I worked at the International shop, we used this addative called DCA. I dont know who makes it, but we used it to help keep the linings of the motor from getting build up and pitting that would cause pin whole leakes in the cylinder walls. (common problem on older 6. 9s and 7. 3s) I dont...

I've noticed that I have smoke rings poofing out of the tail pipe. I'm running the stock downpipe and I put a 4" right after the hanger for the trans all the way out behind the wheels. It seems like it does it mostly under load, and then when the RPMs increase, it smooths out into a stream of...

This isnt every truck ya'll. I have read tons of people having to have things reflashed because of one reason or another. And the fuel filter, well that is under the 400 brake lines that are in the way of everything... ..... and I can see about 4 GOOD spots to put another filter that could have...

Ok, I like dodge, well maybe not dodge, but the motor I like. Seems like the guys/girls at chrysler corp. Have no idea of whats actually going on past the assembly line. (but I'm no engineer either, so bear with me) The way things are put together! Its like they put the bare motor in and said...

Got the lock washers and regular washers! I don't like sheering things off, especually in a truck that has everything put on top of the motor as an afterthought. But then again, I have short patients so we'll have to see where this leads us! I'm taking everyones comments into thought! THanks for...

I went and purchased new bolts. I started looking at the neat little bolt with no head. This looks to be challanging seeing how there is no real way to get at it without taking the injector lines and intake off. I'm pretty sure I can hammer something into the middle of it, but again, I cant get...

a friend and I are going to take the AFC housing off and do some plate mods, what do you use in place of those screws (or brake off bolts) when you take the housing off? Just some more from a hardware store or something? I've looked at it and it doesnt look hard, i just hate running back and...

I have this "bucking" problem with my 98 also, usually right off the line starting in 2nd gear. Where did you get the info on the TSB and the parts to fix it? And how much was it to fix? I am looking on doing the one for the computer to fix the oil pressure problem right now. That is if anyone...

oh no, I thought you were suppost to re-use those! :-laf :rolleyes: JK everyone... ... ..... thats pretty bad. I change mine every other oil change!

Once again, I have another question for a buddy of mine, he wants to do some mild cheap stuff to his 02 with an auto and 4x4. Right now its totally stock, and he has a warranty on the motor and trans. I saw some higher HP injectors on e-bay and was wondering what those would do as far as...

I have a 5 spd, so I dont think downshifting is a problem. I"m gonna take a little off at a time and see what happends. Probably start off at 1/2 and then flat... . or just do it flat, then pull the star wheel back and tinker with it. We'll see what happends! Thanks for the help everyone! It...

My truck is doing the same thing. I buoght a new sending unit and havnt installed it yet. Kinda sounds like it would be a waste of time to replace it. I think I'll head straight to dodge and see what they say. How did you get it for free? Was there a recall and i didnt get anything? YOUR NOT...

I'm new to all this cummins stuff, so bear with me. I moved the star wheel forward some, that helped alot, what is the AFC housing? And the grind plate thing? Does anyone have pics I can look at for this neat stuff, I learn better that way. I already have had the silencer ring gone. I've seen...

I would like to know also!!!! EW ME EW ME!!

A friend of mine has a 01 or 02 3/4 4x4 with the auto. He is wanting to do a little modifying to the motor. Very mild stuff, his mommy and daddy bought the truck and dont want him to break anything. LOL. I was wondering how well his trans will hold up to say a fleetgaurd air filter and maybe a...

Yea its looking like I'm gonna get a better than stock, but not a high dollar one as of right now. And I have also come to the conclusion, that a 6 spd is also out of the question, unless I find one somewere in the weeds, HAHAHA. I'll just fix the old 5 spd first. ok, next question, who has good...

six speed is coming, no doubt, just a matter of when. I don't pull anything really, just a 30 ft bumper pull travel trailer sometimes, I think the tag said 7Kibs. No sled pulling, but when I pull a trailer, I'm not the guy in the slow lane, I'm in the hammer lane running 5 over the speed limit...

Today I replaced the master and slave cylender on my truck, bled them and still no releasing from the clutch. SO, I guess its new clutch time. My question is, should I replace it with a stock, cheaper and more economical unit, or wait another week without a set of wheels and throw down for a...

I had this happen today, bought the two pieces from napa and now I cant get it to bleed out the air, really frustrating. And since I installed it, I don't think they will take the parts back. I wouldnt mind spending another 200 if I knew it was that easy. Wish i would have looked in this area...
