Hey CajFlynn... What's your odometer say these days?

Funny... Most of the gaskets today really don't require any sealant typically... But yeah RTV Black with make it stick and stick for good...

Using any programmers? (Smarty or SuperChips) Try returning to stock...

I don't suggest using a rheostat (pot) for the fooler unless you have a way to monitor the IAT temps. Because it doesn't take much to go either way... But 100-120*F is a good normal starting temperature and work your way up. I think 140*F is going about the high mark of normal.

Be aware there is Wide series and a narrow series now...

Like ISX said you want it to see higher IAT temps. Also you need to use a winter front as much as possible. The actual warm air under the hood actually help the MPG numbers. Where colder air tends to degrade the out come...

Try getting one from NAPA? Or other parts store? That nothing to sneeze at for price...

Seem like the old girls (trucks) are wearing out internally now...

So what would you use for bait? Walnut butter???

Problem is that OBDII standard where suppose to be generic from 0000-0999 then model specific from 1000-9999. But it didn't quite work that way. So without knowing a lot about the truck or vehicle the codes are coming from make it hard for me to look up. Basically did a search on my site for the codes and they popped up in the 3rd Gen (assuming this is the vehicle)

Well I'm not running any kind of heater... No problems with fuel yet...

Well your going to have to look at the trailer plug in back and see what wire is back there for the plug. Then your going to have to trace it forward to the cab. I'm pretty sure its there just stashed. Like I didn't know there is a stub wire in the harness down on the driver side frame for center brake light for toppers... Yeap its there you just got to know it exist... Let me dig for my wiring diagrams... http://forum.mopar1973man.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=129 Just check it shows thre trailer plug and controller plug...

Wow! Another Idahoian... I wondering where there all at...

0628 - low voltage detected at the fuel lift pump 0529 - ? 0541 - low voltage on the no. 1 intake air heater relay 0483 - Fan speed

Actually the ECM is connected to the driver side ground terminal... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/2ndgen24v/wiring/wiring.htm

Nice job so far for head lights... I got to admit he's thinking way outside the box... As a matter of fact I think box is a few miles away... But I got to agree with him why be plain stock time to be different!

Awesome truck... Let me do some digging on my truck and figure out the connections for ya... I'm the same thing a plug and play cotroller... Edit: Ummm... If I'm not mistaken its 12V + GROUND Brake Pedal sense Trailer brake power You might at a peek at the wiring diagram for the 97 wiring... http://forum.mopar1973man.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=129

How much trailer weight (and GCW) are you pulling? Do you have a pyrometer?

Ummm... Save some money... Just do a compression test (not a blow by) and see where your at before ripping apart a perfectly good engine. Most of these trucks will travel a long ways past 500K milestone before needing any kind of work. But the CR engine are known for serious problems with leaking injectors that cause engines to fail as early as 100K miles if not dealt with. So if you pull the injectors have the pop tested and do a compression test you save huge amount of money. You may want to talk these people first... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/milestone/milestones.htm These guys never had a overhaul yet...

You could for testing reasons but I wouldn't for a permanent fix... It should work for just seeing if it will start and run but you might get some weird behavor and error codes.

Links to diagnostics...

Problem is your still baiting with food again bring them in the truck. What you need is some thing to repell them from even getting into the truck like peppermint oil, mothballs, ultrasonic box, etc...

Low miles... Hmmm... MPG loss... 1. Dragging brakes2. underinflated tires3. Aggressive tire tread4. Oversize tires5. TQ Conv holding tight? Not slipping?6. Excessive speed

Just don't mix other products with 2 cycle oil. ISX is running completely without AFC and fuel plate and getting 25-27 MPG... But also running the 2 cycle oil.

I did a 8 foot long (welding cable) negative cable on a fire truck for that price including the terminal and soldier on terminal too...
