You might fill in your signature to help us out... But I'm going to bet money your still got stock plumbing so it might be restrictive...

Sound about right... But I got a video you might want to look at... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUYO-lJe36w Suggest you use a machanical gauge to test...

Yea... The the newer trucks like the 3rd gens... The 2nd Gens are still power steering fluid...

Yeah I'm usually pretty fussy about getting the under side of the truck wash on a regular basis to make sure the brake lines and other parts dont rust out on me...

Still running factory 3" pipe straight... No muffler...

Boy thats great I love it... There is wooded area around you...

Black sheep in the crowd... Walmart Super Tech Power Steering fluid... I change every 30K miles just like here in the write up... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/3rdgen/ps-flush/ps-flush.htm

Well gang... I finally swap my tires for offroad use and firewood hauling. I've been running a Big O at for the streets and light dirt road use (in town). But now with firewood season I'll be doing more dragging and skidding of trees so I put on the aggressive tires. So I popped a few pics... You'd be surprised on how heavy the 265/75 R16 are compared to a 235/85 R16...

Shhh... (how about $7.50 a can is what I paid for them but selling them for $9 a can)

Like coming home with a trailer loaded and the bed loaded I saw about +45*F over outside air and was boosting about 10-15 PSI all the way home...

Now notice you towards the middle of the manifold and mounted in a area away from coolant passages... But 2nd Gen is mount at the end of the manifold (#6) with a coolant passage right next door... I think location has a lot to do with it...

Simple answer... When you got 190-200*F coolant passage within 6" of the IAT sensor that why... This coolant passage runs the entire length of the manifold on the head. Trust me me IAT and ECT sensor match exactly after sitting cold but after the coolant rises to 120-140*F the offset starts to grow... This why I shake my head to someone that thinks they can make a better cold air intake for a 24V 2nd gen... Hard to do when Cummins is heating the entire manifold with coolant... As for the Stock air box and the BHAF the IAT temp are exactly the same it doesn't change it one bit... Always a +40*F over outside temp difference...

9 - 12oz cans... I don't have deep enough pockets for 9 30# cans...

If so.. 60*F (100*F IAT) to 90*F (130*F IAT) outside temp would be right on the mark for me then... Now 200*F I heard of a few big boys with twins seeing close to 200*F worth of IAT at like 60-70 PSI of boost... Yikes!

But now looking at ISX post... So I would have to drive around in 25-50*F weather for optmial temp of IAT... I hate to sat it but that is the worse temp I take a nasty hit to MPG's and drops down to about 16-17 MPG... Well you better not look at my IAT reading on a hot summer day when I fire up... I've seen 170-190*F in the manifold from heat soak easy... Never shuts down... Very true because the air is less dense and requires less fuel so in turn creates less HP... But now from a cruising stand point it does much better on MPG's...

I'm with you Flman... I'm hoping I can sell the 9 cans of freon now...

how about this evening?

Edge Comp is mounted inside the cab and has 5 LED bar to display setting. Edge EZ is typically mounted under the hood and requires removal of a cover plate to change settings.

Interesting AH64ID... I never had that happen... But I guess I learned something new today...

Geez... I meant the fuel logs...Fuel Records.xls

I just resently got him to double check and make sure he got the right flash on his current ECM... (No dice)

I would hook pu a trailer and some load and drag it up a steep hill keeping the pyro at about 1000-1100*F for a good 5-7 miles and that will clean the injectors... 2 way for dirt to to enter a injector... 1. From the fuel supply. But if your running a 2 micron filter or even the stock 10 micron fleetguard as long as you stay after the filter changes you should be good. Even then there is a thing called a edge filter before the injector (located in the crossover tube) to protect the injectors from debris. 2. From the combustion. If the tips are getting fouled from carbon build up then my suggestion of getting them hot would clean them better than fuel additives would. As for the noise I think its OK... Mine got a low tone kind of thumping noise that is only noticed with a BHAF. If you hook up the stock box its gone... But if you worried about it you could do a compression test to verify it...

What version of Edge? (Juice, Comp, or EZ)

No it won't... As you use a smoke switch it will fully retard the timing and make it doggy... Take notice to the timing curve at high boost... Top of the graph. So low to no boost is much better for timing and MPG than high boost... This can be heard with a smoke switch. Just ramp up the RPM's about 1,200 RPM's and then toggle the smoke switch on and off and listen to the injection rattle. normal MAP will have rattle and force high boost will loose rattle (retarded timing).

Actually in my case I plastic welded the case of the cruise control unit...
