Hello every one.

I'm new to this sit and have a 2000 quad cab 2500 4x4 8ft bed, 24v cummins whit automatic transmission I thing it's 4 shifter (sorry i'm new whit this kind of transmission)** & all stock except lift pump which is last week went out and I change it to DRRP02 FASS 110 GPH,other than that untouched truck, anyway, I've to get the RPM over 2k or 22k till shift to the upper and only on the highway goes to 4th and O/D otherwise just only 2 shift. is it normal? I fell engine is under the presser and need the another gear or shift so. In the city with 1500 or 1800 RPM still stays on 2nd shift at 40 to 45 MPH I think is something wrong with it by the way is there any way we can add the one more shift to transmission or not? is any 5 shifter or more is available in the market so we can replace it with this 4 shifter? how much is cost? I knew it maybe the same topic from the other members but I really need your expertise HELP and I need to know what to do as much as I can by myself cause I'm on the very tight budget.

Appreciate for your help.

PS** I'm a semi tractor trailer driver and use to change gears (18-15-13 speed / straghit 10 or supper 10 speed gear box) even my 2000 Honda Accord is 5 speed manual and auto trans is little bit strange for me sorry I don't want to be selfish just want you know my fillings abut the situation.)

Yes. If you hover your mouse over the dotted underlined acronyms it will display the definition.

 

 

Red probe to touch the BATT terminal.  Black probe touching the metal case of the alternator. If the reading is poor touch the negative battery cable. Optimally you want to measure at the alternator not on other wires or battery terminals.

 

 

Same as doing DC but you select AC on a small scale some where like 2V AC or 200mV AC. Now like I said above red to the BATT terminal and black touching the case of the alternator.

Appreciate 

I bought a rebuilt alternator and installed it. i'm getting 14.19 charge normal - 13.17 under fully load ( AC on max - head light - fog light - 4 way flash - radio on - interior light on - cargo light on ) + grid heaters on and off 12.19. Ripple form BATT's - BATT positive to ALT case - BATT negative to ALT and finally ALT it self like showing on the video unfortunately I'm reading 30.5 AC voltage I don't no is it acceptable or not? should I go ahead and return it an get the other one? what is your suggestion?

Cheap DVM... It doesn't have a AC scale in the 2V or 200mV range. Need at least about $100 DVM like my Fluke.
