Funny how people claim that disconnecting the batteries t oreset the computers. I think what is occuring is the terminals are oxidizing/corroding and the terminal are getting weaker and weaker and them the voltage drop is slight but enough to mess thw the computers. Then you pull the cable ans place them back on the problems gone... Hence the theory of resetting computers fixed it... :rolleyes:As you see there is truely no reset (actually a APPS calibration) you just corrected a poor connection...

Did you try disabling all the limits and alarms on the Ardenaline? Really common for some to set a limit or a alarm too low and now the box has a hard time producing good power.RBurks has a good point to double check the valve lash... (small chance but every little bit helps!)How about errror codes? Is there something else that might be wrong keeping the truck from performing good?

Lighting to me is very important... Hence why I just replace 4 bulbs on 2 trucks... Out here in Idaho there is no street lights and always a hidden stump, rock, hole, etc to back a truck into that might cause serious damage...

Nice to know the HP/TQ doesn't change on 3" to 4" pipe... Hmmm... Doesn't give me to much reason to upgrade being the 3" I got now is very controllable for EGT's...

The the winter cold coming on mine is slipping down again. Idle @ 18 and WOT @ 16... I know its the stupid check ball working its way into the spring again...

Yes... The 2 pin switch on the top of the trans shift tower is the reverse switch. I runs back to the tail lights supplying power for all backup lighting and other options... If I remember right Black/Violet wire is the one your chasing...

I tennd to agree with Russ... Like in my days of the ol' Dodge Jamboree I had. I blown several roof vents. But what made matter worse is the base was plastic to so eventually the whole unit should be replaced. Like my current Jayco has steel baes and plastic lids. So I wouls simply measure one of the other lids and order one to match... Or contact the manufacture of the RV and get the specs of the vents.

You might consider updating to the other spring. (17 PSI)

Nope... Solid frame...

You slipped in under the radar... I didn't relize you called...:banghead:

No... There is some that have found lockup controllers to allow for Exhaust Brake usage on automatic but without the lockup controller its basically worthless... CajFlynn has/had a exhaust brake on his 01 Dodge with a Automatic but I think he wore his out. (1.1 Million miles)

This is all in humor...

So it might be worth it to turn the rotors...

I wonder if the pads have the tappered lead and trailing edges? This tends to help with pad noise...

:cheerleader:Go Russ & Sheila

I've got both styles here... The 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 has the CAD system and the 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 has the solid axles. As for the CAD system if you loose vacuum the axles will not lock. Some convert to a manual pull cable setup so you get 2WD LO range. As for my solid axle Dodge the spinning axle really doesn't effect MPG's too much but I able to reach 21-22 MPG normally and high mark 25.3 MPG...

Might go and do the diagnostic on the box...http://articles.mopar1973man.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=53:high-idle-mod-diagnostic&catid=26&Itemid=107

Yeah I mention that before... P1688 is the one keeping it from firing...

I pull your post to a new thread so we can start fresh... So exactly whats going on? Any lights on the dash (ABS / BRAKE)?

Well just wondering around FASS and AirDog sites the both have fuel pumps for the 1st Gen truck and I was shocked to see the starting pressure set up for 10-13 PSI..Buddy Relentless70 has the old school mechanical pump and it good for 6-7 PSI...

JAG1 PM sent...

That should be very helpful...

Couldn't say any better Dripley...

I'm still running stock 3" pipe without a muffler. EGT's are very controllable even hauling 16,000# GCW with the Edge Comp (set to Max) and RV275 injectors. My Fuel mileage empty stay right at 21-22 MPG typically. As for the filter I'm running a BHAF...
