While your using B5 there is no need for PS or 2 Cycle Oil... BIO Diesel is very srong solvent in its own but has more lubricity that PS or 2 Cycle oil... Check out this page.. http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/general/2-cycle-oil/hfrr/hfrr.htm But the down side is BIO has less BTU's than #1 Diesel so you fuel mileage will drop slightly... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/general/2-cycle-oil/btu/btu.htm

Yeah... But I hate to say it but I've already got it posted here... viewtopic.php?f=14&t=114

Interresting... Keydl you one :smart cookie!

The bulbs are 5 years old now and never blown out. I've never crush one yet... 100 watt aircraft landing lights... :smart My manual override switch is on my overhead console... But I'm hooked up to the trailer wiring. There is a 30A (or 40A can't remember??) fused power line in that harness, ground, backup lights, etc... So I took the 30A as a power to my relay. Then used the back up light a signal to trip the relay. The realy in mounted high up in the driver side tail light to try and keep it dry. It also wrapped up in a plastic bag too...

Well I updated the page now... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/2ndgen24v/cluster/cluster.htm

Did you happen to read the MSDS sheet for blinker fluid???I think you've been sniffing the vapors way to much... LOL LOL LOL

(No comment) LOL LOL LOL

Happy Birthday Dr. Evil... 38!!!Wow I had no idea you about the same age as I am!

I though I was bad... LOL You really did as for MoparMaiden... :poke

I've concidered the narrower tires... I'm currently at stock size of 265/75 R16 I though of going down to the size that my old 1972 had and my Mom truck currently has 235/85 R16 still a 31 ich tire just narrower...I would love to here more about your tire facts there Keydl :thumbsup

Hmmm... I got to admit I've been really lucky for 15 years then... I've own 3/4 ton trucks for about 15 years and never bother to chain up. I've always got a good aggressive tires and never had to chain up... Even when I go out to play in the swon I just go... As a matter of fact the chains I've got for my old 1972 Dodge don't fit my 2002 Dodge at all... :rolleyes I think what my science is that every winter I go out and look for a snow loaded lot that is about 3-5" deep with sonw and go play in it. I purposely get the truck to slide and get used to the feeling... So when it does start to happen I know how to correct it and keep going. Also I try to bury myself too. Then carefully figure out how to get out with just basic hand tools like a shovel.Like I said for 15 years now I never used chains, studs, or other traction devices...Oh... I just remember... Most of last winter I ran the highway solely in just 2WD... I think the only time I ran 4WD was going out to my snowmobile road and ithe snow as about 12-16 inches deep...

I personally think Dodge/chryslers greatest engines where the slant 6 225 CID and the 318/360 Engines...Seems like those engine would go on for ever and never die if taken care of properly. Then the 727 Trans was another that could take a beating...

That is something I will never understand about people...Getting larger tires, lift kits, etc... Every bit of that increases stress and failure on the truck... It even reduces the MPG because of rolling resistance and wind drag because the increased height of the truck... :confused

Hey dorkweed... Here is a link just for you... How to change your blinker fluid... LOL http://www.geocities.com/changeyourblin ... index.html

Well ok...Common things for newbies...Gauges (Pyro, boost, Fuel pressure)Better fuel pump (FAss or similar)BHAF (or similar)Enhancement box or programmer (Edge, Smarty, etc)Cab Toys...Stereos, Amps, SpeakersCB's / ScannersSeat covers and floor matsShift knobs (pistol Grip or simular)ExteriorFog/Driving lightsNerf BarsBig Bumpers (Deer Strainers)Bug deflectorsRims & TiresLift / Leveling KitsThese are a few I can think of... But really I'm really quite happy with my beast! :thumbsup

Darn you Dorkweed... LOL :rolleyes I need a gallon jug of blinker fluid... ' I already dealt with my muffler bearings... They are MIA... Straight piped Baby! Remember its the Ford PowerStrokes that got spark plugs... Really look it up in a Napa part book it really there!!! 8|

No joke... :thumbsup LOL I'm just about in your frame of mind... I stay right on top of my truck...Simple trick to your battery terminals... It really easy... Just take your terminal off and clean them well and then us a oil can and put a small amount of 30W engine oil on them and wipe the entire terminal (battery and cable). I do this twice a year and my cables still look factory fresh... Never been corroded... :smart I've got home made winter fronts that are under my back seat so if the temps fall I can put them on...

Hmmm... I'm thinking with in the next year of trying to aim for a set of injectors... Not big ones but something with more holes than stock and a better spray pattern to give a better burn...

Well geez... Ummm... Moparmaiden you know I got everything I need for the time... But...A new MP3 stereo would be nice... But spendy...But for the cheap side... A set of seat covers that fit my seats would be really great... I got to admit its hard to find a set that fit the truck... :mad

Well if you come this far you might want to stop in the Riggins Area... :thumbsup But hopefully the price falls aain before then... Here is a graph ofd the fuel prices... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/2002%20Do ... Prices.pdf

If its gets really cold you might switch over to snowmobile oil... But so far SuperTech is holding up at +10*F above... I'll be doing somer testing with gel points and 2 cycle oil usage... :smart

It seem like you guys back east have the better prices concerning fuels and oils... But out west we get hammered quickly...As for me I got a good break when I fueled up in Lewiston, ID today at $3.499 a gallon. Got back to Riggins, ID and the Price is still at $3.859 a gallon... UGH! :mad

Ok... I'll tell the story... First of let look at the two tires... Cooper STT And now the Toyo M/T Now you'll notice that these two brands look identical to each other. The performance is about the same. Except I was told the Cooper STT would last 45K miles over Toyo's M/T's tire at about 25K miles. Then to top it all off the Cooper STT was about $300 bucks cheaper than the Toyo M/T's... Who said you needed to spend big bucks to get good tires! :smart

Not bad MoparsMaiden you did quite well... I guess I am a good teacher if I can teach diesel techonlogy to a female dairy farmer... :thumbsup :D (not to say anything about being a female or a dairy farmer has anything to do with it)

I'm running Cooper STT 265/75 R16... They are brand new... :thumbsup
