Dead fuel gauge
2 pointsMy 2 Cents. The PCM continually monitors the fuel tank sending unit, then sends the proper messages to the instrument cluster thru Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) data bus. Message Failure - If the cluster fails to receive a percent tank full message, it will hold the gauge needle at the last indication until a new message is received, or until the ignition switch is turned to the Off position, whichever occurs first. // (CCD) data ID 37 Fuel Level Sensor. // Tested on 2000 Dodge Durango PCM, 20 ohms - full <-> 240 ohms - empty // Fuel ID 37~[HEX-25] (ID-DATA-CRC) // DATA range 1 ~ 253 + Error handling, P0461, P0462 and P0463 are all related to the fuel level sending unit. // If DATA equals 255: Error open-circuit, P0463 Fuel Level Sensor Circuit High Input // If DATA equals 254: Range/performance, P0461 Fuel level sensor circuit range/performance. // When is the code P0461 detected? // The output signal of the fuel level sensor does not change within the specified range even though the vehicle has been driven a long distance. // If DATA equals 0: Error short-circuit, P0462 Fuel Level Sensor Circuit Low Input. // P0463 Fuel Level Sensor Circuit High Input // @ 1Kohms to ∞ infinite resistance Ohms, (DATA equals 255) = Error open-circuit // DEC: 37 255 36 // HEX: 25 FF 24 // P0461 Fuel level sensor circuit range/performance // DEC: 37 254 35 // HEX: 25 FE 23 // P0462 Fuel Level Sensor Circuit Low Input // @ 10 to 0 Ohms (DATA equals 0), Error short-circuit // DEC: 37 0 37 // HEX: 25 0 25 // @ 240 Ohm empty. // DEC: 37 1 38 // HEX: 25 1 26 // @ 220 Ohm nearly empty. // DEC: 37 8 45 // HEX: 25 8 2D // @ 180 ohm, before the low fuel light. // DEC: 37 54 91 // HEX: 25 36 5B // @ 179 Ohm, Fuel Reserve Light on (Data 53 to 1) // DEC: 37 53 90 // HEX: 25 35 5A // @ 20 ohm full // DEC: 37 253 34 // HEX: 25 FD 222 points

concensus of running EGT's
2 pointsThat took me back too. The first diesel I ever drove was a '52 White w/JT165 but no turbo. It was tandem axle solo rig so not that much weight but still pretty darn gutless. We were only allowed 73,280 when I started w/2,000 lb tolerance before they would cite you. 35 or 40 foot trailers and recently I pulled 40/22 combo @ 105,500 lbs. Interesting how things change including I only made a living for about 4 years driving. I wanted to drive and like doing it very part time which is what I have done for years when I was working my regular work. Not sure this will work to either show a picture or a URL. If it does it is the rig my brother drove since 2001 and put 1.4 million miles on it. It has been restored and headed for the Brooks, OR truck museum. I think they should put him permanently on display in the drivers seat with the rig. =) His last day in a rig will be 8/26.2 points

1 pointI'm sure you're right on the money than not. My take on it is, its already too easy to acquire a regular drivers license whereby anyone is piloting around a 3 - 4 ton missile, why would we ever want to lower the skill level for CDL drivers just so there's more less qualified drivers behind the wheel of a 40 ton missile..... Seems counter productive to me.1 point

Those are ECM related but like ME says dont condemn anything yet. get the codes read. you do have plenty of fuel in the tank dont you?1 point

My first tractor was a MF 699. First vehicle was an old suburban with load of bales, instructed on how to drive it over the walky-talky. haha1 point

1 pointMight give companies a broader employee base First diesel truck I drove was a 67 GMC cab over with, you guessed it, a 318 Detroit, 10 speed, and a hi/lo gearbox, and low was reeeally low. 55mph up hill and down. Was pretty much worn out then. Wiring was a real nightmare.1 point

How are you checking for trouble codes? I would almost bet there is more in there. You could hot wire the new lift pump to see if it works or as mentioned above see if you have voltage going to it from the ECM.1 point

Manual Trans Conversion - Seeking Advice/Tips/Issues/etc
Video is like a ways out, gotta work out the bugs before showing off the truck. My research found that it exists on the auto ECM for shifting between, P N R D. The software is programmed to sense changes in engine load/demand based on throttle %. Added load/demand (tc or clutch) @ 0% throttle creates a similar condition in terms of computer reaction. Research for my swap found that the programming was very similar and only small tweaks were made for each trans setup. Not sure how true this is, but from a cost aspect of producing these truck it only makes sense. I am still running auto PCM & ECM.1 point

1 pointMy start in trucking was with the JT165 cummins in a 1947 Sterling. That is 165 hp pulling 79,000 lb over the grapevine and before most of the freeways in California. We have come a long way since then. That jeep in my avitar, when it was a new 4 cylinder,1947 was our tow vehicle. It was slow but it would drag them home in compound low if they broke.1 point
