  1. You might want to look up the codes over here for correct definition and diagnostics. http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/59-obdii-error-codes P1689 http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/59-obdii-error-codes/228-p1689-no-communication-between-ecm-and-vp44 P0336 http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/59-obdii-error-codes/175-p0336-crankshaft-position-sensor-signal As for the lift pump yes its very possible the lift pump is shut down when the RPM's die out because of a failed crank sensor. Also the alternator dies out too.
  2. But make sure you think it out before you randomly poke holes in the basket think about road conditions, slope, braking, acceleration, etc.
  3. CajFlynn's RV275's worked good in his truck but randomly miss on my truck. I cleaned them up and now the miss is back again. I got to get free from the Sheep fire Security Duty to get my repairs done.
  4. I've even consider that myself for the winter time... Just never did it.
  5. Fuel filter is getting dirty on my truck my idle pressure is down to 18 PSi... WOT is slipped down to 16 PSI. Not worried yet.
  6. Fuel sender float in the tank rotting away? Yes. I seen a few report that some fuels and fuel additives can do this.
  7. The only time the adjust on the fly is really needed for me is heading up canyon in the dead of winter. I might start with clear roads and leave the Edge cranked up. Then when I get to the snow line I can adjust the power to keep grip. There is another problem with any flash type modules. After many, many flashes adjusting up and down constantly it will wear out the EPROM module in the ECM. I'm not sure of the count but its rather high. Where wired module doesn't have this issue.
  8. Well I bit south of you and I get the cheap ol' WalMart and mix it 50/50 without a issue all the way down to -25*F and no problems in 10 years of ownership. I don't get wrapped up in claims of coolant performance. Oh yeah I'm pretty sure Prestone makes SuperTech Coolant like PennzOil makes SuperTech Engine Oil's.
  9. Air Dog with quick connects are prone to suction air leaks. :rolleyes:Change you plumbing back to old school JIC and Pushloc's and most of the problems go away.
  10. Dripley is right the whole unit has to be removed and bled hanging vertical to remove all air.
  11. One of the few reason I will not buy a Edge Juice or Quadzilla Adrenaline because when the unit dies it takes everything with gauges and all now left blind for critical engine info. I rather always suggest gauges and separate module.
  12. There is a restriction some where for sure. Old School AirDog 150.. Center gauge. As you see it get down to 15 maybe a bit lower but not much. 2-3 PSI fall is typically for mine. Now I'm set for 19 @ Idle and 17 @ WOT. Now on the return trip I suck air bubble pressure will fall out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grl72Up-8T0
  13. You could opt to change to 235/85 R16 and save a few buck on tires. They are the same size tire height wise but about 1.5 smaller in width. The attachment is 265's vs 235's...
  14. 203K miles on my trans and zero problem using solely the Mopar Trans fluid and changing every 100K miles. As for my clutch I broke the hub on my stock clutch at 150K miles. Now the South Bend Con OFE is holding good. As for mountain road travel I've got no issues with that. I can travel up and down just about any Idaho grade without using my service brakes. Like right now driving about 90-110 miles one way for SAR's duty in the middle of nowhere Idaho climbing mountain road. Even hauling firewood I've got no problems. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh7lOJLD948 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDjMzmV4bbw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0yjDv8Slkw
  15. ScanGauge II...But as for you truck I'm going to assume you got a 2001 Dodge if so you'll need a code reader. I tend to like the ScanGauge II...
  16. Well would you believe since I started this adventure I'm up to 687 Miles travelled and holding a even 21.0 MPG.Does it look lived in? I wasn't joking...
  17. $4.299 in Grangeville, ID $4.579 in Whitebird, ID $4.479 in Riggins, ID Another $50 bucks to drive to post tonight...
  18. Yes you would just paste the tag links. As for the site here we've got a attachment system too so you could upload your pics to the site as well. Nothing like vB3 site much better system. Kind of like photobucket.
  19. One problem which filter will not correct is ash content. Black diesel is very high in ash content and will eventually plug up the injectors. As ash is burn it leaves a ash crusty deposits on the piston tops and injector tips. Same applies to running ATF too... Engine oil are not like previous years. Even Cummins would only allow up to a MAX of 5%.
  20. Welcome to the family. That was one of my pet peeves with larger sites is way to much advertising. So while building this site I did everything yo keep HTTP request down and download size down as much as possible.
  21. No one caught on to the fact that the oil pressure gauge is not actual pressure right? Being you can modify the gauge reading by fooling the ECT sensor is not a true reading. More or less a dummy gauge or dummy light.I actually tested my oil pressure with a mechanical gauge it doesn't vary when the ECT is flip.
  22. In 3 days of working on the SAR's group I've travelled 480 some odd miles and so far holding about 21 MPG and that's with driving 60 MPH on the highway to and from the SAR's post plus climbing mountain and driving mountain roads at 25-35 MPH.
  23. I kept my stock filter housing with zero loss of fuel pressure performance.
  24. Ummm... Watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUYO-lJe36w
  25. :lmao2:I was the same way... It was a Mopar or No Car man for long time even drove older Dodge Trucks for ever. But always though diesel is slow, stinky, etc. Well now I hate to fire up the 96 Dodge Ram Gasser because is much weaker in power compared to the 02 Dodge Cummins. Now I tend to drive the Cummins more for the towing, hauling, and wonderful fuel mileage over the gasser...
