Cracked fuse will drop voltage randomly. Change with a fresh fuse t Poor man's test it will work just remember you moved the possibly damaged fuse and/or relay so be careful of the systems you might affect. If you problem moves then the relay or fuse will need to be replaced.

@Mace I'd need to chat with you on the phone to verify other things to make sure a tune work work.

Double check your fuse for the VP44 and the fuel pump relay in the PDC. Fuse might appear good and be cracked which will give random drops of voltage. The relay connects might be bad too. If you have the W-T ground wire mod. Then the ground for the VP44 is at the gear case otherwise the ground is the passenger battery terminal. Use the wiring diagram and test the wires from end to end should have 5 ohms or less to pass. https://mopar1973man.com/cummins/articles.html/24-valve-2nd-generation/engine/electrical/2000-engine-wiring-map-r391/

Ahhh. Fear not! Quadzilla tuner is interception tuner. Basically the 2 pin CanBus connector allows access to live data. Quadzilla only changes the datastream and none of the ECM or PCM is altered or programmed. If you need stock just turn to level ZERO and all tuning stops but continues to display live data. This in not like Smarty which flashes the ECM EPROM and alters the physical ECM software. Quadzilla is safe.

You confirmed the 2-cycle oil theory is solid if you have an OEM pump still going. I'm at a +150 HP injector (7 x 0.010, popped at 320 bar (4,641 PSI). Then Quadzilla custom tune which I'm re doing for this coming winter on the day I use my truck. Trick on my end, DO NOT just ramp up power. I don't reach above 100% stock till 20 PSI of boost. So technically, I'm just running my +150 HP injectors and no additional fuel, less stress on the pump for a daily driver. Running about 23 to 25 degrees of timing at 2,000 RPM. Partially to make up for the lateness of the injectors which are popped higher. Just figured I'd share my ideas with yours...

Do tell...

I might suggest looking up the torque amount for those bolts and maybe add addition 5 ft/lbs more. Just a crazy idea?

BOLT, Hex Flange Head, M14x2.00x80.00, Shock Mounting,

Here is a trick for next time I found the bolt part number and also the bolt size... BOLT, Hex Flange Head, M14x2.00x80.00, Shock Mounting, Then go back to Google to look up the part... Then select a supplier for the part. I see Amazon and a few others...

True, the crank sensor has to show the crank turning to keep the power turned on for the lift pump and injection pump. If there is any loss of tach signal, it will drop the fuel pumps. Any error codes?

I'm still experimenting with makeup artistry. Been more focused on the dirt work in the yard, but there are a few days I was messing around. @Tweety Bird wanted to see a few new colors of hair for me. How about fire red? Then I've even been to a funeral for one of my friends, I was dressed in full black and black makeup. The fire red hair, I really enjoy wearing when you get comments about being seen all the way across the store, like Walmart. I love to dress up and interact with the public. The black was a way for me to dress up for a funeral for my friend Dan Catherman. Just after the landslide, he was down helping me hike up the mountain to look at the landslide from top down. Rest in Peace, my friend.

Yeah I'm finally getting this cleaned up and can focus on getting my driveway back. As of right now the driveway is rough but accessible for vehicles to the front door. After I clean up the trash pile we will have parking area for all the vehicles here on the property. I'm racing against winter time to make sure I can keep my driveway cleared and open. The videos are while I was digging for the shop stuff and Mark personal stuff, if I got lucky but most everything in the house and shop was crushed by heavy slabs of concrete. Finally, I got my driveway cleared in a rough method. It has been long days and a lot of diesel fuel for digging like this. I've had to double-stack all my dirt and debris pile against the mountainside. This is only a temporary place for just the wintertime. I've still got to rebuild a shop at some point so I can even maintain my own vehicles. The driveway is clear but I've got a huge trash pile to sort out, hopefully before the snow comes. Take the wood and move it to the lower yard to be burned this late fall.

@Mace could you build an article for the electric vacuum set up?
