  1. There is a few household reodeling jobs I hate... Either drywalling or house painting (interior / exterior). I simply suck at doing either one. But most other jobs around the house I enjoy doing. Mowing the grass, weed wacking, bushing out the hill side, wood hauling, splitting firewood, working on the trucks, irrigation work, fencing, etc.
  2. I use to run stem extenders on the 1976 Dodge motorhome I use to own. I actually drilled a hole and and mounted the stem extenders to the rim instead of the clamp system it came with I found the stem spun off and caught between the tires a few times. Then at the very end before I gave up on the old beast the stem extenders were not holding air any longer and leaking. So if you use these be sure to keep an eye on the inner duals because its possible to not notice the inner dual has gone flat.
  3. Left and right turn signals tap the harness at the left frame rail near the rear end. The parking lamp comes from a splice near the front left fender then to the trailer relay to power all the parking lamps from the same power that constant hot is from. (40A fuse in PDC)
  4. Let's say the ECM is reporting 15.5% off from actual GPH flows (With the RV275's and Edge Comp 5x3). Then ABS computer is off by 1% on MPH.
  5. What's the low side pressure and what the high side pressure? Possible you have a bad low pressure switch that not tripping out proper pressure. Like if you look at the low pressure gauge rthe R134a ring will tell you the output temp of the system.
  6. Not cheating if the gallons consumed and the gallons displayed match...
  7. Nice flat bed. Now we need to see you hauling one ton hay bails on the bed of the truck.
  8. Guys have a point it would be a good idea to drop a set of manifold gauges on and check the pressures of the system and see what happening it might be at 40-50 PSI when you start. Then as the compressor runs a second or 2 then drops below 25 PSI and shuts down.
  9. Because what you ask for with Jason does lots of things all the way up to the grave...
  10. Going to need air bags to level out the truck. Might also take it to a local truck scales and see what everything weighs out at.Hex lets see some inside the RV pictures...Heck I'm hitch up and ready to go. No sag and not even on the helpers...
  11. Yes it will but there is a flip side to this problem. It not the fuel that becomes a issue but the boost pressure. As you add more fuel there is more boost pressure created and so as you start to get towards 20 PSI the wastegate opens but being you got extra fuel the truck will start to pass 20 PSI anyways and ECM will limit the fuel. So the fueling box is to control boost fooling as well as adding extra timing and fuel the stock software.
  12. Up here Idaho its sold in both states either in full rounds or split. Typically a slightly lower price like $140-$160 for red fir in rounds and $160-$180 split and stacked. Then if you hold out till winter time and all the roads are closed then firewood can be as high as $200 to $250.
  13. Just remember when the tuner, computer or display goes you lose all you gauges. But if you go modular then if a single gauge goes you only have to replace 1 gauge. But with the tuner 9 times out of 10 you end up replacing the entire thing maybe under warranty or maybe on your own dime. Something to consider.
  14. Hence why I said...<br> <br> The pile after 3 trips now. Now to relax..
  15. Ahh... The Lilacs!I've got a monster bush next to the front door as tall as the house and another in the hillside near the front door. Another one out near the cherry and apples trees in the front yard. Finally got another bush in the backyard near the generator shed. (That turn out trick panoramic pictures!)Oh... I love the smell of these on a warm morning... Wow!Now get the black berries going...
  16. I'm a manual trans guy so...* Fuel Pressure* Pyrometer* BoostThose are the three gauges I run. What I would in your case is consider doing another 4 gauge pod on the column for the trans temp. I'm considering as a toy is getting a rear diff gauge and mounting it on the column and then add a toggle switch so I have a sensor in the diff and one in the trans so I can check either temp on the fly. 2 in 1 combo deal and cover my tail.
  17. Definition of a cord: 4x4x8 feet. (128 cubic feet)Trailer rough measure 8x8x3 to 8x8x4 feet (192-256 cubic feet) Or to make a cord on the trailer: 8x8x2 (128 cubic feet)Needless to say when I started down the mountain the roads where wet and muddy and the first time the exhaust brake hit the trailer was pushing so hard that its started to jack knife the truck at a mere 15-20 MPH. I instantly grabbed the throttle to cancel and pull it out straight again. To fix this problem I had to run 4WD to keep the exhaust brake from jack knifing. Trailer axle was pinned to the trailer frame. My soft Load Range C's where aired up to 50 PSI max and they where looking a bit well soft.
  18. Out and got another load... Closer to 2 cords...
  19. You should be ok. Typically the needle valve is skipped and the isolator takes a beating usually kill it. Maybe this why you isolator is holding up good is you protecting both the isolator and gauge with the needle valve.
  20. I ran PS every other tank roughly guessing at doses. Never saw any gains to performance or MPG but it sure did help kill my OEM VP44 injection pump at 50K miles.Kind of like Dodge and Cummins black listing Fram filters for killing engines by plugging the oil cooler jets. so Power Service is blacklisted (in my book) for help killing my VP44 injection pump.
  21. Love it... I use the saw in all positions that handle allows.
  22. Kind of like this tree you can see my 16" stick on the tree and the chainsaw on the ground...
  23. I'm not exactly a Ford guy but I do understand the fuel system in a basic sense. Cetanefreak is right. The oil thickens up and harder to pump to the injectors. So there is a certain amount of lag till the oil temp comes up. Another part of that is the computer trying to control timing and fighting the cold oil as well. Block heater or a oil pan heater helps a bunch in this problem.
  24. Ain't happening now... I already spent big money getting the last one fixed... http://forum.mopar1973man.com/threads/7143-Destroyed-a-turbo-with-a-hose-clamp?highlight=hose+clamp
