  1. Very good alternator and starter rebuilder. They are a good shop for getting your alternators and starters rebuilt for all makes of vehicles. There prices are extremely fair and the service is good. I just had the starter for my 2006 Dodge rebuilt in less than one day. Few years back had the alternator for my 2002 rebuilt for less than 50 bucks. Bad set of brushes and retested for AC noise and all was good.
  2. If your missing the second connector you going to have to swap in the highline wiring harness and high line central timer. Being there is security controls your most likely have to flash the entire system to accept the new central timer and its enhanced features. Vehicle security, key fob door locks, steering wheel stereo controls, and the overhead computer. Just a heads up with information.
  3. Most loose the tailgate bushings from tailgate removal. Yeah they are plastic but they do last quite a long time as long as your careful not to loose them when removing the tailgate. The rubber pads might be a bit tougher but check LMC truck they seem to have all the bits and pieces.
  4. Yup its called "limited pedal". It is typically the the PSG and it control of the fuel pin correctly or the PSG is not listening to the CANBus correctly. Double check and see if there is any error code to give any more clues on what is the cause. Might check for excessive AC noise being I'm going to guess this truck doesn't have the W-T ground wire mod. Being excessive AC noise is known to cause PSG failures too. More or less it could be your alternator and the bad ground to the ECM/VP44 that cause the PSG to fail. Sad ot say your most likely going to need to replace the VP44 but make sure to deal with the AC noise before installing the new VP44. So I would do the W-T ground wire mod then have the alternator tested and replaced. Then purchase a rebuilt VP44. This will insure the new pump will have a happy long life.
  5. Warm up timing doesn't really count being the timing offset is controlled by IAT and ECT temperatures. Colder the IAT and ECT the more timing will be given to aid in getting to the fuel to vaporize and go bang.
  6. Back to what I was say have the injectors pulled and pop tested and see. I did an article a while back on how to clean them. The bad part is not being able to measure pop pressure.
  7. No kidding... Stay down and let it heal...
  8. 450 PSI is good. Might check valve lash but even with your numbers sounds good. I would have them replaced if the injectors are plugged up or damage. You could pull the injectors and have them pop tested at a local injector shop.
  9. No. I'd stayed at camp. Too wore out for more hiking steep country. So I gather wood for the night. Enjoyed the peace and quiet. That was Andrew. He's my Hobbit. This little dude can move down a trail in a quick hurry. No joke.
  10. How many miles on the injectors? If there is more than 100k it time to replace the injectors. It could be pop pressure is low and the injector is spraying good causing a random mis or just weak hit.
  11. That's what the website was designed for so anyone can build articles, forum posts, etc. Trust me there is nothing you guys and gals can hurt here. Just ask questions. Addon... Just like I told @Doubletrouble was even if I've got an article for say task "X" and you want to make a new task "X" with the knowledge you know that is fine. This give readers different perspective to the same task. Kind of like W-T did the ground wire mod and I reproduced my own version just to simplify the task of doing said mod. Both have the same out come when done just some people are not electrical types and start reading W-T article and it was too techie for some so drop all that get right ot the task. So as you can see there reasons for remaking the same article.
  12. Well consider at about 2.5 miles in you have to cross French creek. So pull you boots, socks and pants off and walk across the creek in 34 degree water. Then hurry up get you pants, socks and boots on. The way home we tried to cheat and just roll up our pants and just pull or sock and boots. Needless to say my pant legs fell back in the water half across. By the time I got to the truck my pant legs were nearly dry. Yup. Body heat was drying me out quickly. I've got a photo of Andrew crossing in his underwear. Not something I would post here but you get the picture. I'll admit I'm not in great shape but made the trip 3 hours in packing roughly 50 pounds of gear, water and food. Then with cloud cover it was cool for the evening but like I said next morning it was snowing on us. Nicer to come out mostly empty pack other that gear. We ate good up there. I slept good. Today I'm one sore puppy. My hips and lower back are still screaming but I've got a solution for that too. Oh I asked Andrew where the trail goes and it's roughly 24 miles long going to Seasech summit. Yeah it's still covered yet but that is what French creek is all about is snow melt.
  13. Yeah I love turning off my phone and being out in the wood without internet, cell service, roads, or vehicles. Makes you consider how lucky we are. Like I told Andrew this is what Lewis and Clark did years ago.
  14. Yup. Not a problem. Give a call to DAP they could do it too.
  15. Best way to find out is send them in have the pin size the holes and pop test them. The oily fluid could of been pop testing fluid.
  16. Thankfully I've kept mine all lubed up and working. I've got a truck I've got to go get this week and fix the latch and door panel again.
  17. Mine is missing the muffler too. Straight pipe all the way to the tail pipe way less issues with exhaust parts.
  18. Friend of mine (Andrew), got a hold of me Thursday night and mention that he wanted go out horn hunting. I jumped at the chance to get out for the first time in the spring. Hiked in roughly 5 miles into French creek and set up camp. I was bit too wore out by then and opted to hang at the camp. I spent the better part of the day gathering firewood and keeping the home fires going. Had a wonderful time up there that night, rocked out to misuc, food and good company. Then the next morning we woke up at 6:30am MDT. Still dim lit and got a fire started and got breakfast going. Just as we got breakfast and got eating the snow started to fall. We were up around 4,030 ft according to my Garmin GPS. We quickly ate breakfast and got rolling out.
  19. 4 inch is always an upgrade. I ran mine till my muffler broke off the tail pipe. Right around 300k if I recall correctly.
  20. Oh my Gawd. The only one is the passenger battery lead. The rest of those are lights and nothing major. W-T ground wire mod deals with this directly. Again passenger battery negative covers ECM, PCM, and VP44. Being all sensors rely on ECM internal ground this means the W-T ground mod resolves most of this. Again being that ECT is not pegging out and dropping this is the ECT shorting to ground. If you did the W-T ground you would have the loom exposed most of the way to the ECM. Even having @Auto Computer Specialist do the testing too will resolve this.
  21. Just got done fixing a Quad door not latching. The latch rods froze in the release position and door would just bounce.
  22. Mine have been on my truck for years and 100's of thousands of miles. No leaks and withstood up to 53 to 55 PSI. No problem.
  23. Actually does. Android wants the Bluetooth, then Apple wants WiFi.
  24. Now ive got two economy vehicles. Between the Grand Caravan reaching 25 MPG. Then Beast getting 28 MPG the biggest thing is driving style. My last trip with the mini van I cross Boise on Eagle Rd and was able to slow the degrading going light to light. Even making the climb over Horseshoe Bend grade. Most people have a heavy foot and jack rabbit starts going light to light. In Beast I watch the EGTs and engine load. Then in the mini van I watch instant MPG. When you have some feed back make sure to use that info.
