Hey there gang, I'm looking for people who truly want to get involved with the website. I'm adding functions like the Gallery so people can place there truck photos up and show them off to the rest of the world. The Event Calendar is going to be set up for the idea that we might plan travel trip to places and share our location so people can meet up with me. I also want to bring the Zoom meetings together too. I'm going to be building articles on Thor here shortly we are going to have more information on 3rd Gen Trucks soon. I'm serious I'm looking for people who want to get involved in building up this website. I'm willing to teach and show you around. Most of the stuff you would be handling is from the front end and no code knowledge is required. Anyone wishing to become part of the staff please contact either @Mopar1973Man or @Tweety Bird and we will interview you and see what you have to offer the website.

Today I bounced outside, and it was warm and sunny. I wanted to get busy trying to make Thor cleaner and comfortable. Yeah, grab the power washer and nearly a gallon of degreaser and give Thor a good washing down on the engine so I can hunt oil leaks and other things. Don't need a greasy engine. I sprayed down the door jams and hinges so I can lube them back up and get the creaky door hinges to stop. The driver seat was pretty bad I peeled the seat bases out of both sides. Not really hard, just need to be sure to unhook each hook on the frame of the seat. You'll see in my photos I took an old 2nd Gen Seat and chopped up a chunk of foam from the 2nd Gen passenger seat (salvaged truck). Now I slowly pieced the seat foam back together with Gorilla Spray Contact Cement. This worked out great for binding foam together. I also cut a chunk of fabric out of that old 2nd Gen seat and used it to fill it. When funds are available I'm planning on purchasing the new seat skin and the foam pad both...

This is one of the few reasons I would typically suggest to have the alternator bench tested for AC ripple at the time of the w-T ground wire mod install. Kind of hard to fix a noise issue if the alternator is still screaming into the charge wire. The ground mod helps with the noise not hoping back on the ground strap to the ECM and VP44.

Basic wire test is to ohm from end to end (unplugged) you should see less than 5 ohms for good wire. Above 5 ohms there is a problem. Another test. Still both ends unplugged then measure connector pin to ground. This should show OL or infinite resistance. This means no wire shorted to ground. If any ohms show then it could have a rubbed jacket or wire damage. Remember both ends need to be unplugged or unhooked.

Remember Bosch stock injectors are NOT made as a set. You could have low end of 293 bar you the high end of 327 bar. This can affect idle performance. I high suggest AGAINST using stock injectors. Buy +50 HP from any good injector shop and they are balanced as a set within 2% of flow rate. Like my custom 7 x 0.010 is popped at 320 bar and custom tuned by the Quadzilla. Remember low pop will advance timing, high pop will retard timing.

Possible tight torque converter in the transmission?

Sadly I've never done twins yet. 7x0.010 injectors can be ran on a stock turbo if you have Quadzilla tuner. Beast is my 30+ MPG truck.

Good point

Thanks for marking the thread solved. 😊

I'm going to have to say tire-related issues. That is the only material that with change as the tires warms up the rubber softens and the deformity will get worse. I've got to ask what brand of tires, what size of tires, are they on factory rims or aftermarket rims?

IAT sets the mode. ECT cancels the high idle.

It needs paint. OMG! I'm dying to see this custom truck is done. Wow

Ouch I would of got a pigtail for it and kept the plug.

I would love to do a product review for you. PM going to be sent.
