Fuel pressure is rather marginal... You might want to double check all you electrical...

Fuel Tank Heater

1.000.000 Miles Yet???
Slow again like usual Rogan... He just called last night and is just crossing the 960K mark... On a personal note Caj told he had hurt his back doing a job on a boat a few days ago. Now he's fighting a sore back while he drives cross country. I hope your back heals soon bud... I even said a few prayers so maybe you get some relief...

trying to find code # for paint
Yeap... Rogan correct... The code there should be enough for any body shop to mix the proper paint color...

No start
At idle or at wide open throttle? Seem you got a air leak possible? Old school trick is to park nose down and see if it start easier. Compared to nose up (drain back).

Great to see you return back to the site...

pile of codes and a no bus and a confused owner
It could... Creates a issues for that side... I would rather try all the little cheap things first before ever pointing the finder at things that are expense like ECM/PCM or VP44... So double check and check all the small cheap stuff before pointing the finger at bigger money...

MPG fooler - Design phase
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.

Site question
Be aware there is Wide series and a narrow series now...
-
MPG fooler - Design phase
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...

Codes
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)
