MPG fooler - Design phase
Here you go... Now why would I try filling a tank here locally when the local diesel price is $4.089 in New Meadows, ID and $4.109 in McCall? Now in I nickle and dime time I make another trip down to Boise, ID its much less... Right now roughly figuring it would cost me $102.26 to fill up... I just don't have that much in my pockets...

Aftermarket Fuel Lift Pump Question
Marking answer in RED... Hopefully that helped.

who else is down here?
There is a lot of guys/gals in that area... I know CajFlynn comes from that area... There is more but got CRS right now... :banghead:

MPG fooler - Design phase
Can't afford to fill the tank... $20 here... $40 there... I'm still logging the fuel data but waiting for the money to fill up. I know my calibration was good as of the start of winter (Nov-Dec) and the only thing changed on the truck is the IAT... Like I've got to head to town soon in the next few days to put another 20-40 buck in it...

Wanna A Good Laugh???
Thanks... In New Meadows or Riggins... But I don't think you can handle the cold... So far the coldest morning has been -25*F. Thanks again... It might be beautiful country but being trapped in the bottom of the canyon because of snow really does suck after awhile. I've got a itch to hop on the ATV and head for the hills but won't make it far... No one thought my first video was funny?

Still holding good MPG numbers at 21 MPG on a 11*F day... Cruise set at 55 MPH...

Long ways from making the milestone page... 500,000 - 167,750 = 332,250 Miles needed... Get driving...

heat shield or no heat shield?
Sitting and idling in traffic with high IAT temps will not effect the performance because it not rolling anyways... MPG is 0 just sitting at a traffic light. Stop and GO traffic is harsh no matter what the IAT temps are. The other factor is no matter what you want to plumb for cold air intake you got to remember the entire manifold of the 24V has a coolant passage under it not to mention having a coolant pass within 3 inches of the IAT temp sensor now. EDIT: The freeze plug I've been told is intake manifold.

heat shield or no heat shield?
Yeah but if the intercooler is doing its job the IAT temp should follow a +40 offset normally. So what the turbo inhales for air will be cooled back down by the intercooler. So even on a 100*F day I've never seen over 140*F on the IAT while cruising. This is with the A/C going as well. What counts is what the IAT sensor sees not what the turbo is inhaling... But flipping the page again the 24V does do much better with a hot IAT temps for MPG's though... Much better than cold... http://forum.mopar1973man.com/threads/3231-MPG-fooler-Design-phase

Crank seal & timing gear cover gasket install
I did my month inspection and found my front crank seal is starting to leak and I'm down about a pint of oil since my oil change. The bottom of the oil pan is wet in behind the belt pulley and the face of the pan there... Then back at the cross member that goes under the pan is wet... Ok Burks... I'm going to be done front seal off your write up... I need to gather up the parts and get some better weather for working. Just way to cold to work in the shop.

Raptor 100
I'm hooked up to the PDC not the battery... Less acid to corrode the wiring...
-
OK, what did I do?
Switch is on the transfer case... I going to bet there is either a pinched wire or a damaged switch or mount.
-
Can i ask this?
Ok... Do you phyically have spark at the plugs? Good blue spark? How about smell of fuel after being crank for a good period? Tailpipe should be strong smell of fuel. 100 PSI is a bit marginal but should still run. If you used starting fluid that should of got a kick of the plugs are firing... I would back track the ignition and be sure of the plug firing consistantly. Remember if you flood the cylinder the plug will be wet and will not fire. --- Update to the previous post... Went digging...

Brake Caliper
Yeah but like I found out this method doesn't work. Because now you've push the debris between the puck and the bore and it binds up. The only way to get the debris out really you just got to open the caliper and clean them. But when you got 100K miles on the caliper it not a bad idea to open them up and service them rather be safe than sorry... Got me there with the pins...

I need an Alibi
- Brake Caliper
Sorry your NAPA link didn't hold up... (NAPA web site is known for this) Tell you the true if you can get your hand on a exhaust brake you'll get the mileage from your brakes. I'm at 181K miles and still never done a brake job. Rotors are in good condition not warped. Pads are wore down bout still very serviceable yet. I just might make it to 200K miles before doing a brake job. As for the stock caliper they are good design. Just that over time the brake fluid cakes up on the piston pucks and starts to bind up the pistons so the brakes drag. If you want to fix this problem it really cheap and easy. Just disassemble the calipers completely wash everything and blow dry all the parts. Replace your seals ($8 buck a piece from the dealer) Check your pucks for binding without seals in the caliper. If the piston falls to the bottom of the bore without pushing then the piston to bore is fine. But if it hangs up take some light sandpaper and sand the puck a little at a time you'll notice the brake fluid residue comes off. Once they fall to the bottom of the bore on there own you good... Just re-assemble them and bleed the system. Fresh rebuilt calipers for much less.- MPG fooler - Design phase
Here you go... I did the testing of several common value resistors and got the IAT temp values for you. I can tell you that the 3rd band will always be RED And the first band should never be BLACK or BROWN Values used for IAT Fooler in High Idle Design 13*F - 56K Ohms - Green/Blue/Orange 26*F - 39K Ohms - Orange/White/Orange Tested Values for MPG Fooler 87*F - 7.4K Ohms - Violet/Green/Red 91*F - 6.8K Ohms - Blue/Grey/Red 100*F - 5.6K Ohms - Green/Blue/Red 107*F - 4.7K Ohms - Yellow/Violet/Red 112*F - 4.3K Ohms - Yellow/Orange/Red 119*F - 3.6K Ohms - Orange/Blue/Red 123*F - 3.3K Ohms - Orange/Orange/Red 127*F - 3.0K Ohms - Orange/Black/Red 132*F - 2.7K Ohms - Red/Violet/Red 143*F - 2.2K Ohms - Red/Red/Red <- Currently using 148*F - 2.0K Ohms - Red/Black/Red Unsafe Values - Don't Use! - Documenting values for tesing purpose! 163*F - 1.5K Ohms - Brown/Green/Red 173*F - 1.2K Ohms - Brown/Red/Red 184*F - 1.0K Ohms - Brown/Black/Red Also the IAT page was update with this information... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/2ndgen24v/iat-sensor/iat-sensor.htm --- Update to the previous post...

I produced a video this morning of me plowing out the driveway. But here is the trick I added a 1 second time lapse to the video so every second the camera shot 1 frame of video it takes 30 frames to make a normal second. So this short 2 minute video is what it took me about 1 hour to do. The lag at the begining is me leaving to the neighbor house and getting his ATV and plow and doing his place first. Here you go... Then a walk in the yard to show you more... Then a time lapse of the sky from 12 noon to sunset.- Fuel prices thread...
That always throws me for a loop...- You have to be kidding......
Yeah if you sucking air into the fuel it will cause white smoke or low fuel pressure. Then on top the P0216 code will produce white smoke.- MPG fooler - Design phase
Those are rough values I got from another web site long ago... Here is a few I've test for sure... Orange - White - Red - Gold = 3.9K Ohm = 116*F IAT Red - Violet - Red - Gold = 2.7K ohm = 132*F IAT Red - Black - Red - Gold = 2.0K ohm = 148*F IAT- truck just died
So get the rest of the error codes and add some fuel back... - Brake Caliper
