    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) average mpg?

    I had a period with some bad fuel mileage, only a few MPGs lost, but the truck was stone consistent before. I thought it was fuel or fuel delivery, but it turned out to be my front brakes were dragging, calipers had seized up from all the salt they use on the roads here. New pads and shoes all...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Found motor and have questions

    I don't have what your looking for, but as a suggestion I would head over to the 1st gen forums and search through there for the conversion to P-pump or something similar. From a quick read in there is seems like a few have done this already and the knowledge and ideas should transfer to what...

    Cummins parts dealer

    I bought one at the local NAPA when I needed one for my 03. They had them in stock and from what I remember about $35-$40, Canadian $$ mind you.

    rotella 0W-40 Full Sythetic ok ?

    I was using a Co-op brand 0-40 full synthetic in the winter and a 15-40 synthetic in the summer when I had my 92. It definitely helped on those days where it was in the -30C range and it had sat outside for a few hours at work or where ever. Living here in the boonies and never knowing what...

    Almost out of warranty, what to check out?

    Everyone has caught most everything. One thing I would add would be the front hubs, I caught mine a little too late and it cost a few $$ at the dealer.

    Need Winter Advice

    All good advice on the subject, just adding my two cents worth. I had a D250 5spd, should have kept it. :) - A good winter front. Preferrably one that can cover below the truck too. I made one out of heavy canvas that hooked onto the frame rails and extended from just behind the bumper to...

    Distributor vs. mechanical pumps

    Other may chime in here with more knowledge but here is how I understand it. 1989 - 1993 use the Bosch VE style pump. Mechanical, rotary style pump. 1994 - early 1998 12v use the P7100 pump. Mechanical style pump 1998 - 2002 24V use the VP44 electronic pumps. Of course there are those...

    My wife says I am STUPID...I think I agree...HELP!!

    Work at getting the $1000 back like most here have already mentioned, then immediately call up your favourite Diesel performance dealer and order up $1000 worth of accessories. Guaranteed that will keep you having fun in your Cummins? If he does by the Ford doesn't that mean that he will still...

    Winter Mods?

    I think there was a thread earlier that had more info too, may want to search. I have 82208646 listed as the Mopar part number. Haven't ordered one yet, winter is almost over. :-laf . I've seen a few of them and for the $100 or so looks like a worthwhile investment for those in the colder climates.

    some general newbie and maintenance q's

    Sorry forgot about the exhaust question. When I originally got mine the factory muffler was shot and the tailpipe was all bent up, off to the muffler shop I went. Probably not the cheapest method, but I had the local muffler shop build my exhaust from the downpipe back, they do a lot of diesel...

    some general newbie and maintenance q's

    I've added the Autometer 2 Gauge Pod and accompanied Autometer Sport Comp Boost Gauge and Pyrometer kit. I'd post pics but its too dark out. Your local autoparts store should have some matching interior paint to spray the Gauge pod as they only come in black. The details on Pyrometer installs...
