1 pointI was also wondering about what your hyrdualics look like. If you are still running the stock system, it may not be holding back that big old clutch very well!! If you do have an adjustable aftermarket set up I would try adjusting the pedal "up" a bit. That way it engages the clutch a bit more.1 point

Spent some money on the 05.
1 pointJust got done testing out the new additions to the 05 Cummins. Removed the catalytic converter and installed a 30" resonator in its place, I retained pretty much the entire stock exhaust system. I had previously had removed the muffler and put a muffler delete pipe in its place and today I put the resonator in the exact spot the cat was in as it is mounted directly behind the down pipe. I only had to chop the rear section of pipe off the factory cat in order to have the right length of piping and to get the right angles on the pipe going back from there, it was about a 10 in piece and it worked out very well. Initial test went for a 5 mile drive and it is about 50% quieter than the factory cat straight pipe system and the ear piercing drone seems to be gone inside the cab but you can still make out a good exhaust tone to it, even at idle it is about 75-50% quieter at the end of the pipe than it was which I like a lot better too, seemed to eliminate some of the vibration while driving also that was related to the drone tone. Also installed the 1/2 inch line Vulcan 3 micron fuel filter kit that mounts under the factory intake and it turned out good as well, I got a bit worried as I have a home designed remote bypass engine oil filter I have mounted in front of the intake and the hoses coming off the front of the fuel filter housing clear my bypass filter by about 1/4 inch at best with some adjustments but it worked, no leaks after the test drive all is good and I now have a bit more piece of mind in more ways than one lol.1 point

Airdog quality
1 pointThat's a heck of a groove for only 2 days! just how hard is that ball.. would a fingernail leave a dent? or does it bounce back (LOL< don't destroy it finding out!) That flat portion sure could act like a cork especially when the aluminum chills down for the night.. which would shrink down on the ball.. I'd bet that is what is making the groove in the first place.. The growing and shrinking of the aluminum acting on a static ball. Like cbrew noted, the ball "should be off the seat" during operation. There might be some rattling around of the ball when fluid if flowing past too. Plus any impulses felt from IP. If that ball is really light weight, it'd flutter a lot more than steel.. but would need a stainless seat for it to work against. Sounds like another potential part to offer in a kit for these pumps! Seals, bearings, ball and spring.1 point

Just precious thoughts
1 pointfrom an email: He almost didn't see the old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her. Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her ? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was that chill which only fear can put in you. He said, "I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm ? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson." Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt. As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid. Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, "And think of me." He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight. A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home. It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn't erase. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan. After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she noticed something written on the napkin. There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: "You don't owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you." Under the napkin were four more $100 bills. Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written. How could the lady have known how much she and her husband needed it ? With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard... She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, "Everything's going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson."1 point

1 pointWhen ever you meet someone who likes to stir it up and is lacking in knowledge about which he pontificates, it is better to turn your back on that person and walk away because you just can't fix stupid.1 point
