    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Need opinion on aftermarket exhaust systems

    Thanks for the replys guys. JHenry yes I did mean MBRP. You mentioned your exhaust systems with no mufflers but how is the cab noise? Edgeman stacks won't work becuse I use a crossover box and need the box space. Dave thanks for the link. I went to xterme diesel performance and read the reviews...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Need opinion on aftermarket exhaust systems

    Here is the situation. My factory exhaust system is rusting out on my 97. I replaced the muffler two years ago with a straight pipe. It has served it's purpose but I'm tired of the cab drone. I'm looking to upgrade to 4" system. I have been reading the old threads but not getting the answer to...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) 12v dies

    It would be worth checking to make sure the fuel shut off solenoid is pulling up all the way when the truck is running. This is rare be a commonly over looked item. When truck is running try to see if plunger will move further into solenoid. If it does, it's a good possibly it's the problem.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) new 12v

    As blacksheepdiesel suggested I would start with and trans shift kit and good strong convertor if it's in the budget. Call a diesel shop and see what it would be for timming adjustment. I'm sure price will very from shop to shop. As far timing adjustment it does change power band and egt's temp...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Another Lift Pump/Fass system or relocate???

    The fass pump is worth the time and money. It has been the best solution I have found for the factory lift pump short falls. The pump is very good not bad to install if you read and follow the directions. Installation takes time to drill holes for bracket and route hoses and wires were they need...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Loss of Power

    If you think power loss happened after service repair. Check all turbo clamps by tightening them with socket. Check them all with socket a visiual will not show a loose clamp. , Check the afc tube out the back of the IP to the intake manifold to see if it is melted. It maybe possible the turbo...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Engine Miss at all RPMs and p0234 code!

    In the time have workied on this trucks I never replaced a ECM for rough running concern. It is 99% the VP44 pump providing everything else is ok. I found the fass transfer pump is best product to replace the OEM one. It is a very good pump. It flows more fuel then to OEM ones which helps keep...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Engine Miss at all RPMs and p0234 code!

    The P0234 will not cause vehicle to run rough. In my experience with this code, on a hand full of vehicles it is a software issue. It causes no vehicle performance or running problem. Verify the turbo wastegate opens and have someone with a diagnostic tool verify it's not boosting over 20psi or...

    Running erratic @ idle

    GSaltzman Lonestar and Tomeygun are on the right track. Injectors will cause rough idle but not idle surge. The fcv is what regulates fuel deliver and inconstant fuel pressure delivery will cause idle surge. If the problem is inconstant it maybe harder to prove but fcv is more like it.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Temp gauge problem

    You could check the wiring by removing the temp sensor connector and see which way the temp needle points. Then jump the the two wires in the connector and the temp guage needle should read fully in the opposite direction. Temp sensor is next to the t-stat housing. This would verify the wiring...

    Archived Fuel Tank Suction Hose Connection!!!!

    DShuart, on your fuel module quick connect, is the fuel nipples on module metal or plastic? If you have a air compressor spray air at quick connects to blow any debris out of connections. If the module has metal nipples coming out of it, spray rust penetrate on quick connection. If you have...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) replacing gear case KDP Q?

    WDaniels I cann't disagree with you on this. It's just that never seen or heard of this problem on the 24 valve engines, but I do know for a fact that new timing cover housings are designed to hold pin from coming out for both 12 valve and the 24 valves.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) replacing gear case KDP Q?

    AMeissner sorry to hear of your problem. How do you know the kdp came out? I have never seen a kdp come out on a 24 valve engine. The timing covers were redesigned as of 98. 5. The covers were machined with a collar to the front of the cover to hold the kdp for coming out. So if you are...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) HELP Please truck no start

    Reno Guy, If you wanted to try to see if you can get the truck running with the thought of a bad battery. You could use two vehicles one on each battery. Try to use 4 guage jumper cables if you have some handy or a big battery charger and a vehicle. This supplies the truck with enough amps to...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) HELP Please truck no start

    Dodge starters contacts can cause this when they go bad. But if you cycle the key several times to heat up the contacts the starter will generally work. Also if the clutch pedal switch is bad vehicle will not crank over. If cycling the key works you'll need a starter.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Ohio Salvage Title

    The only thing that they will probably check is to see the vehicle is road safe. Basically the suspension, all the lights, tires, no huge fluid leaks, are ok on the vehicle. They will check the vehicle over like you're coming to register any other vehicle. They will check it over a little...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) what boost should I be seeing?

    You could very very carefully apply compressed air in the boost line from the engine side. Have someone watch to see if the guage will read psi and also check for leaks at same time. It won't take much psi to move needle.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) what boost should I be seeing?

    What did you set the hp setting on the edge kit? Is your pyrometer sensor in the exhaust manifold? Was 1200 degrees under load? Exhaust temp seems a little high. I have seen about 32psi of boost under full load on the highest hp setting.
