Sorry... My yard not big enough... Seriously its wonderful to look out the window and watch Mother Nature do her thing and change the weather and everything. Here is the command post...

This is really good advise to take from simple thing as like being pulled over for a ticket or anything...

Stainless should hold up to the exhaust manifold stuf rather well... As for me I would of taken the normal hex head bolt... I just seem to have a bad time concerning allen head cap screws...

Well if you below the 10 PSI of fuel pressure strange thing might happen as far as power and acceleration. Keep it in the green for best performance.

If you got the expensive Cummins Insite software you can plug into the CANBUS under the hood near the ECM. But the OBDII port under the dash is the only port to read error codes. I've seen a few cheap reader not report ECM codes for some reason... even my SGII has done it a time or two now...

May I ask what air filter your running?

Wow! That's got to suck big time to have a truck damaged heavily from hail... Would you possibly post up some pics of the damage maybe someone has a idea on how to help repair your truck.

Here is the 8 hours of video compressed in 2.5 minutes... This was again setup as a time lapse with 1 frame every 5 seconds... http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VxKzjTRCtQ

What bugs me is the P1693 cannot exist by itsself there is more error codes present you might need a better code reader to get it out.

I still say its going to be a trans thing plus your idle RPM's. Like my truck with a manual shows 0 LOD all the time in neutral the only time I see it rise is with a exhaust and/or high idle. But my normal idle is much higher they you SASQCH... My normal idle is 840-860 RPM's. So my thought is the TQ Conv is drawing down that 100 RPM creating the LOD change...

Did you see about those error codes?

PCM is on the passenger side firewall... ECM is on the driver side of the engine block... Then yes the P0606 is a ECM fault code. Driver side ground takes care of the ECM ground...

Run both filters... But now instead of changing oil at 7,500 according to Dodge's Owners Manual so I change oil and main filter every 10K miles. So I change Frantz filter every 5K miles...

Normal oil filter is about 20-30 micron... A bypass oil filters are down to 1/2 micron... (At least Frantz) Check this out... http://forum.mopar1973man.com/showthread.php/1688-80-000-Miles......No-Full-Oil-Change

That's the funny part of Boise "The City Of Trees" how can that be???

Holy Chit man...

SGII (ScanGauge II) can would with any programmer or enhancement box. Not a problem. It will show you live data from all the engine sensors that the ECM has. Sorry to say no it doesn't do Pyrometer or Fuel pressure because these sensor are not present on the ECM. It does the MAP Sensor but the 98.5 to 02 has a voltage off set that skews the valve and makes it unusable. Now if you calibrate your SGII for fuel mileage it a great tool for getting the MPG's up more. Basically drive by number. If you want 21 MPG just keep the MPG display above it as much as possible. As for the speedometer I trust the speedometer and odometer on my SGII more so than the stock gauge because the stock gauge is off exactly 0.5 MPH and that gives about 25-30 miles difference at the end of a tank. So the MPG number is closer to correct on the SGII than hand calc for me... As for the XGuage function they are still getting code written for vehicles. As for Code reading it does have a extra feature with Freeze frame data. In other words you know exactly what the engine was doing at the time of the error code tripped.

If you got the ECM plugged into the MAP sensor and the code is coming back without the Edge Comp plugged in then the sensor is bad. But if the code is coming while the Edge Comp is hooked up the the boost fooler is bad in the Edge Comp and would have to be repaired by Edge Products... As for the P1688 and P0251 codes are rarther serious codes and shouldn't be taken lightly. I would keep a close eye on the error codes and the fuel pressure for awhile...

The brake on off loading remember that the hydraulics of the power steering pump load down the engine... So between power steering pump, alternator, thick ATF in the TQ Conv. I would say that it possibly the cause of the issue...

You and me brother...

Hmmm... Up north we are see warning for snow already... Ekkk...

Once again I started too early and the batteries ran out before the sun came up that was about 20 seconds per frame and after 2 hours of recording it died...

Updated: Here is the video... http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=QX5Wf-CKNH8

Battery only last 2 hours... I was too lazy to plug it in... So in 2 hours time that little clip there recording 1 frame from every 5 seconds. As for sunrise let me upload this clip quick...

That would for sure make the water/methanol last much longer...
