    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Code Dump

    I'm in Los Alamos Ca. about 50mi North of Santa Barbara. . I ordered the truck in Feb 98 form Dodge Fleet Sales on the Web. They called and asked if I wanted the 12v or 24v. I went 24v and took delivery in July 98. So, I'm sure it's first run 24v ISB. Completely built in Mo. USA woo hoo !! I...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Code Dump

    I have tried multiple times to get the codes to diplay on my odometer with 3x on -off discribed here on TDR. I know there are codes present, but no joy. Does this procedure work on pre 98. 5 ? and not on on a 98. 5 ?? Should the odometer be on the trip or milage display. Any advise would...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Need help- VP44 mounted fuel pressure gauge

    FASS FP install Dirk, I believe your FASS will come with the all fittings you need for an arrary of different installation senarios. Mine did. After loosing a VP44, I went extremist, I got a dual FP guage setup . Mechanical isolators, mounted on the firewall. I connected the isolators to...

    Hi All, Finally have my truck at the power range that works for me. Now I'm looking into adding an over/under Drive unit. I pull a gooseneck 4 horse w/ living quarters @ 12k Lbs +/- . Short and long haul trips. I'd really like to tach about 1. 8 -2k @ 70+ . I've had a GearVendors O/U Drive...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) adding antifreeze to fp gauge???????????

    I wouldn't worry a lot about the isolator breaking. If it did the positive FP would push fuel into your gauge. If it did back flow it would be so diluted by the fuel it would still burn off. Considering when I did mine there was less that 1cc of antifreeze in the isolator & tubing. When you fill...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Metal in Fuel Filter

    I found metal shavings in my filter also, after my wife was stranded by a no start. I had just replaced the lift pump 10k mi. prior! This was first of many problems ending in a VP44 replacement. I dumped the whole stock fuel system when with a FASS , new fuel lines, and a guage. You may want to...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) huge air filters

    I just installed one . A CarQuest (Fleetguard # AH19037) equiv. bout $45. As per TMWeber, I installed the same way. The inlet Collar fit perfect and was made of strong hard plastic, I tried to crush it but couldn't, I just used the stock clamp. There was a bit more whine from the turbo but worth...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) EGT Sensor Location

    BodyBomber, Thanks. . That's pretty much what I figured. The more I learn here, the more I realize what a looser my local diesel/radiator shop is. . I will plan on relocating the sensor. But, I'm not brave nor talented enough to drill and tap with the turbo installed. Looks like it will...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Still have hard start with new VP44

    While researching the same problem I had, hard start when warm, I came across a couple of other low $$ solutions, One was the camshaft posistion sensor $50. Also the Crankshaft posistion sensor $50. I swapped both neither fixed my problem. A terrible thought is maybe you have a bad rebuilt...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Wastegates, PSI's, and codes

    I have normally had 18-20 pulling hard with stock turbo. I put a BHAF on and BAM 22psi. . You may have a restriction caused by your air filter plugged up. If you can't suck the air in you won't get the boost. Same senario if you have a restriction in the exhaust also. As I've read here, wriiten...
