Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) caTCHER ecm (Marco's aka MAD)

[Bob Wagner]

what kind of truck does that mean I have?

2001. 5/ 6speed/ Federal emissions

 

[JRagland]

Catcher was good for 32 psi with stock turbo and boost elbow, not too bad.



Tom

Same here. 32 psi max with nothing but a Catcher and a plugged boost port.

Hey I'm right up the road from you in Conway. Have you ever dealt with River City Turbo in Little Rock???

 

[Supermod56]

was that with your stock injectors or with the DD's???







BTW I'm freakin ******. Went by the dealer to get the software version... he was all smug and like ''our system is down''



WTF?





I did find out my truck is on lift pump#4 in 57,300 miles. WTF?

Stock injectors. And what software version are you talking about???

I thought I had to go find out what version of hte software my ECM had, Bob Wagner told me that I didnt need to, and I got him the right info.

 

[Bob Wagner]

FWIW the software version is stamped on the cummins tag on the front of the ecm.



ecm code

 

[Jeepmullet]

Bob, they here yet?

 

[BigEasy]

I'm sure this has been answered, but I don't have time to search 120 pages of this thread... with which years will the Catcher work? I'm still looking for my first Cummins...

 

[fox]

The Catcher will work for 98. 5 thru 02 trucks.

 

[BigEasy]

Thanks, that's what I figured... but I wasn't sure if they worked in the 3G trucks too...

CC fix.

Gentleman,

Lookie here: http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/dev/showthread.php?s=&threadid=76208



One SMART fix for the over reacting vacuum cruise control.

I'll give it a try for sure!



Marco

 

[Marco]

It's a 30second fix!

I just couldn't resist! I HAD to give it a try ASAP! IT WORKS!!!!



Take the vacuum line off of the tee on the firewall ( My truck, it's the one closest to the driver ) Take the rubber fitting off of the vacuum line. Push the spray tube from the aerosol inside the vaccum line. Reconnect the vacuum line.

VOILA'! Takes 30 seconds!



To tell you the truth my CC is a little on the slow side now but I'm sure cutting the red tube a little will fix it.



Kudos to DTR member Mike D!!!!!!

Folks were so far down in the hills they have to pump sunlight in. Sorry about the spelling... . Creek or crook

 

[Todd T]

Maybe his name is Mac Hinest :-laf

 

[rivercat]

Same here. 32 psi max with nothing but a Catcher and a plugged boost port.

Whould a bad MAP cause a high of 28 or would that be a boost leak?

 

[Rebel Ram]

Whats the verdict?

Sunday morning. Curious about this "Catcher" I've seen in truck profiles. Found the thread and started reading. Got to page 12 and like always had to jump to the end. . Jeeze, 116 pages?

From what I see or read, Marco is One smart Cookie.

I am having grief with my ottomind and have pretty much decided to Punt. So is it as good as it sounds and did the core problem get fixed?

 

[MACHINEST]

Oo. Go for the Catcher you will Love It.....
