2nd Generation Dodge 24 Valve Powertrain

good day gents. new to site, so far seems pretty informative. thanks for that. 01 2500 4x4, auto. new to me since 2013. heres the list of issues i believe to be having; engine knock delay in shifting to OD tc lock up hunt. trans slips on left turns(sometimes) so.....with engine knock....cant remember when it started, but its been at least 9 months. noise is constant thru rpm range. i list this as a trans issue as i cant/hope not/ see the engine knocking for 6 months without failing completely. oil pressure indicator working and in normal range, 40psi at idle...thereabouts. even after driving around. ive read flex plate failure is common...perhaps…

I was inspecting my intercooler hoses this afternoon and the lower ones have seen better days. So I figured I replace all the hoses regardless of them leaking or not. As far as hose kits go are some better than others or are they pretty much all the same?

Went to adjust my kick down cable and add I was removing it from the housing I forgot to reinstall the clip. So as I was pulling the cable out the plastic cover that holds the cable popped out. Well I got it back together but now it needs adjusted because when I come to almost a stop my trans doesn't shift into first unless I give it some fuel. My concern is which way I need to move the cable. Do I move it back towards the firewall or keep pulling it forward? What started this is the fact that sometimes under wot it wouldn't shift it would max Rev and then defuel and sometimes while passing it would downshift and not upshift. Now while driving normal or …

I am looking for RV275s and both Vulcan and DAP have them on their site with some differences. Can anyone tell me if these are the same and if so, why the price difference. DAP-The price is $345 and a $100 core charge will be added to that. This also lists as "marine", is that not usable on my truck? It comes with an installation kit, (Injector connecting tube removal tool/nut, copper sealing washers and O-rings for the connector tube). Are those O rings for the cross over tube, is that the same thing? http://dieselautopower.com/bosch-new-injector-rv275-marine-300-40hp-432193635/ Vulcan-$424.99 plus $200 core charge will be added. This doesn't show as marine…

I've read Dynamic's posts about not using Alto Red frictions and steels, so what else do I need to know? I'll be doing it myself (with the assistance of a Chrysler master transmission tech) in a nice, clean, air-conditioned garage, and I'll be pressure-washing the underside of the truck and the transmission case once it's out. Problems currently are no 1-2 shift unless I lift completely off the throttle, and a leaky rear seal. The kickdown lever is broken, which allows the 2nd gear band to float free above the drum. 2-3 and 3-4 are essentially normal shifts. I've already got an FTI single-disc converter and a Suncoast billet governor solenoid plate and oversized/…

Got a 1999 24v 3500. So the top of my filter housing is leaking fuel. My question is. If I purchase the fass fuel titanium system with the dual filters. Will this eliminate the factory filter housing?

So I'm picking up my truck, with its new VP44 on Tuesday and will be making a 12 hour drive with in on the following Sunday. As I was looking my truck over before sending it off, I noticed way too much residue in the mouth of my Turbo. Considering that I run a K&N, I was pretty surprised. Then I started reading around here and my Turbo looks pretty much like the one in Mopar73's article about BHAF. What I'm wondering is if I can use the tubin setup and heat shield from my K&N and get a BHAF to fit into the space? If anyone has done this or knows about the size dimentions, I'd really appreciate it. Normally, I'd just go get a filter and give it a go but, …

Got off the phone with Jeff at Goerends transmission today and felt a little light headed. I explained what my intentions for the truck, around 400 horse and more aimed towards towing my car trailer and 31 ford, than hauling ships or mining equipment. But I'm going to over build it so if I ever have to... We came up with a list of parts and I figured I'd ask around here to see what others have to say from experience. My truck just shy of 167k so I'll be rebuilding the whole transmission. not just replacing the torque converter and valve body. Anyway the list of parts are as follows, Master rebuild kit 2.5 quart added capacity transmission pan Billet input shaft …

Howdy All, I have a 2wd 01 2500 5.9 with very few modifications. Primarily an Airdog Raptor FRRP a K&N filter and a 5" turbo back exhaust. I normally run 1oz/gal of Walmart 2 stoke oil in my fuel and my truck as been an absolute workhorse and has run super smooth....until this morning. I filled up with fuel yesterday and ran about 65 miles. This morning, I headed out to the hunting property. As I got onto the highway and accelerated, my truck started "stutering" (for lack of a beter term) as the RPM climbed. I pulled off of the highway, and put the truck in neutral. With the truck in neutral, I slowly reved the motor up to 4500 RPM and it went up nice and sm…

Installed new torque converter and valve body. Everything worked great for first 600 or so miles. Now, truck will immediately stall out when shifting from park to either reverse or drive. Sometimes can blip the throttle and keep it me dying. No other shifting or searching issues that usually plague these trucks once I can get the truck rolling. Wondering if the new converter is locking up in park? Is that even possible?

In the next couple of weeks I'll be pulling the failing transmission out of my truck for a rebuild, and while its out I want to upgrade the injectors. I'm not looking for anything crazy just a nice towing injector, so between the 50 and 75hp rating. I realize that power all revolves around other mods, but take for example 75 horse injectors. Are they in fact good for at least 75 horse?

Have P0122 & P0336. Any suggestions for this combo. Thanks in advance for your help

Guys I've got a small leak on #6 injector line area. It's a small trickle of fuel nothing spraying or pouring out just a steady drip. Has anyone experienced this on their truck and what fixed it? I had the injectors replaced around January and no leaks at the time at all. What are the chances that the fuel line ferrel is cracked and spraying high pressure fuel?

Anyone have any experience with switching to synthetic after a break-in? I'm wondering just how many miles I should wait before I switch.

i had a weird one today. i came down the off ramp and made my stop. went to take off and as i am taking off truck died. rolled to a stop and put it in park and it fired right back up but i got a CIL and the code was PO720 which is output shaft speed sensor could it cause it to die like that . it sucked cause i had on coming traffic as it died .

Guys, I sold my 2002. After our last trip with the camper to Florida, we decided that the truck was just too loud for us. She gave us great service and am sad to hear (haha) her go. Thanks again for your help, time and insight as I tried to make my vehicle the best it could be. I posted in the classifieds some parts I removed before the sale. I have mirrors, and edge ez, shift kit and filter, and a fuel filter for sale. If anyone is interested , let me know.

hey, i am getting the p0122-(pedal position sensor voltage too low) trouble code with check engine light on my 24 valve cummins. i did the diagnostic procedures listed on this website for that trouble code, on steps 4 and 5 of the listed procedures i got an "O.L" reading on my DVOM which means "open line" i guess? can any one tell me what this means or what i need to do to fix my dead pedal issue (always at beginning of the gear if it happens) ? im pretty new to this cummins and this website. any responses would great! thanks. STEPS 4 and 5 4. Ensure APPS connector is still disconnected. Disconnect ECM connector. ECM is located …

Sorry if this is not the place to post this but I have found a chart with the latest fuel HFRR values with the addition of bio fuel. Since most fuel stations will have between 2% and 5% biodiesel I thought this would be great info for us VP44 powered trucks. I am having difficulty posting the chart if someone can help I will get it up asap.

Well today while doing my oil change I finally gave up on my Frantz Filter. I've had enough. Back when I got it was rather easy to just change filters (roll of toilet paper) and go on. Well now toilet paper is so different from brand to brand and now the length is wrong, core size is different, etc. Just a big pain in my to deal with now. So I'm pulling it off and removing it permanently. I'll be looking towards a better solution in time with a remote mount base and a spin on bypass filter some wrote up in the past. The other thing is I'm tired of the leaking lid all the time no matter what I do I've always got oil oozing out of the can. I'm tired of the oily mess and fi…

Hi, new to this forum. I have a 2001 Dodge 2500 cummins HO 6 spd with Air Dog, Edge Juice with Attitude, 100 hp injectors and other intake and exhaust mods, about 367,000 miles. I've had the Edge, Air Dog etc for over 5 years, can't remember when I put it all in, with no problems. Recently I started getting "speed alert" alarms on the Edge display. I gave crazy numbers like 134 mph when I was only going say 40. Sometimes sitting still. After this happened a few times, it would stop sending fuel until the error was gone. sometimes it would go on and off several times, so you're driving along, and fuel is cutting on and off. The speedometor always gave the corre…
