- Hello from NY
Wow! Nice projects... Welcome to the group... Hopefully you'll be able to share some your knowledge with the group!- need wiring help!
Try going over to the Dodge FSM and that shows the connectors... But I know there is nothing on the 97 for books as of yet...- MPG fooler - Design phase
Hey Prowelder... I did some thinking on the design and the bugs and think I got it fixed... At least with this design there is no way to have high idle and MPG fooler running together... I knew there was a way to logically seperate the to system I just need a good night sleep and a strong cup of coffee...- need wiring help!
Here is the basic wiring of the 02 wiring under the hood... 01 should be really close... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/2ndgen24v/wiring/wiring.htm Then here is the full 02 wiring diagrams. http://forum.mopar1973man.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=128 Then here is the full 97 wiring diagrams. http://forum.mopar1973man.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=129 From all this it should help ya...- What type of engine is this?
Yeah it would help to see the injection pump side a bit more but it does look kind of like a small Kubota...- Otis / evic info
Yeah it was defective... Sorry... It should hold setting plugged in or unplugged forever...- switching from stock steel to stock aluminum wheels
That's the only right way to do it!- Otis / evic info
The SGII does have a few flaws... Like the MAP sensor value is suppose to be PSIa (atompheric) so at rest with the engine not running the reading should be 14.3 PSI (normal atompheric pressure) but it been know that all 98.5 to 2002 Dodhe mis-report this value and 2003 and up report correctly so this is not a SGII problem its a ECM programming issue. Now as for checking it against my 1996 Dodge Ram the MAP sensor display correctly. Now which value is reseting to ZERO? (Instant, Current MPG, Today MPG, Prev MPG, and/or Total MPG)- Bhaf :)
Bill your thread over on TDR is locked out to non-members...- Engine Rewiring
I understand when you get into a large project like this and it takes longer than you planed and then not having the time or the money to finish it your timeline tends to make these comments come forward... But I got faith in you ISX keep going!- Bhaf :)
Why don't you test the filter minder? http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2jd7XsYrKI- camp trip
- Engine Rewiring
Come man... I want to see it run soon...- Otis / evic info
Something to be aware of that if you plan on modifing the truck at all for power (injectors, power enhancers, etc) the Ovewrhead display will be worthless. Once you modify the truck the calibration of the display will off anf there is no way to re-calibrate it to you new power... Or worse yet you got to return to stock. If you looking for a module that is calibrateable with change power and additions to you truck I would look into getting a ScanGauge II or a UltraGauge... Both can be recalibrated to modification of the engine and display much more information.- Foul smell from engine oil
Another thing... You could build my crankcase vent to aid in keeping the smell down... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/personal/2002/crankcase-vent/crankcase-vent.htm Yea like CajFlynn I tend to stay away from Rosmella... (Chevron Delo or Mobile One are good)- Otis / evic info
Well to help out here is the overhead wiring to look for...- Suggestions on OIL
Between Dorkweed running Walmart oil and going 84K miles on a single oil change with Blackstone lab testing. Then with CajFlynn with nearly 1 million miles on his truck running Chevron Delo 15W-40. I'd say most all oils out there will meet the requirements of the engine just fine.- Otis / evic info
I in line with the rest of ya...- camp trip
- Heat Shield for the BHAF
It might be a Redneck setup but it works... The bungee I added to keep the filter from banging around under the hood. Washboard roads really do make it hop... Funny you should mention that. Just for testing and fun I had a short 3-4 mile grade at 6% to climb over with the TT cruise set at 60 MPH and it would hold 1,100*F EGT's at about 32 PSI boost with the Edge Comp wide open (5x5)- lift kit for 2001
Remember all changes away from stock tire sizes, rim offset, lift kit etc. will effect life of parts. (Usually negative) Remember your designing your own geometry for a front end.- thumping sound when going around corners at an idle
That's just wrong...- Heat Shield for the BHAF
