Help with tune
Boost leaks... I took and removed my wastegate hose and not plug it. Then removed a manifold bolt from the manifold. Now with these two massive boost leaks I 'only lost 7 PSI and barely gained 100*F. of EGT's. Boost leaks have to be MASSIVE to make EGT's sore and loose lots of boost. Still making 40 to 41 PSI. The noise is VERY LOUD and can be HEARD! As for loss of power check your wire tap. I had my stealth plate back up just enough to loose connection to the circuit board. It dropped me from 47 to 49 down to 32 to 33 PSI CANBus fuel only.

I want to finish the WT Wiring mod but...
Why? Alternator is rated at 136A... It should never exceed that. The only why that happens is if there is bad diodes shorting out. The alternator should never exceed that 136A rating charging. The only thing the amperage would go higher is a short in the alternator. If you not sure than bench test your alternator. No amp meter needed. Even the stock alternator fuse is 140A... Why would it trip a 150A breaker?

I want to finish the WT Wiring mod but...
I've got a circuit breaker off of Amazon and never tripped once. Another vehicle I did the circuit breaker he's got heavy electric loads or something that keeps burning up the circuit breaker. I've got a 150A fuse and holder sitting here for his truck if he popping that there is something wrong. Alternator is 136A total period. Should never flow over 150A worth of current charging.

Cannabis
Over two truck loads got dumped in the trash. During the time of the last year with mom her eating habits were very basic. Most the can good exploded and leaked on the shelves. Then the boards start rotting and twisting. Now we are slowly restocking. Even dumped out a freeze with goods over 7 to 10 years old. Now the restock is starting. You won't @Wet Vette doesn't like black licorice... We do, she don't. You might take that up with her too. Yesterday I took the day off and stayed medicated for the day. Rather relaxing. Now up this morning clear headed and ready to do work but it only Sunday. Might as well get ready for the work week. Time to wash and wax the truck and get thing rolling on the web site. Wrench jobs are slowing down big time with hunting season kicking in.

I never bought any cable. Only crimps for the cable ends. I reused all the alternator lead. Then reused most of the ground lead again. No cable to buy...

Fuel Filter Housing Removal
Yup you heard that right. My 7um filter is catching what my 3um filter is passing. AirDog 150 is a 3 um filter and then the NAPA filter I put in the stock can is a 7um filter. It's catching what the 3um filter is passing. I change filter every 60k miles. Yup 60,000 miles. Before then the AirDog filter looks like brand new. AirDog 150 3um filter at 15,000 miles...

Cruise won’t turn off
Just a vent. Just so no rain or water is sucked into the vacuum pump. Remember this would be dumped right into the engine oil if the vent hose had access to water.

Like later manual trucks are fly by wire cruise without a vacuum motor. Where the early trucks were all vacuum motor cruise control.

Cannabis
Give a clue. I bought a 1 gram vape cartridge of Sour Diesel in 24 hours between the two of us down 1/2 a gram. I can smoke a good 2 or 3 bowls after a 1.5 years of smoking. Last night we were sore been busy. Been working at getting ready for winter time. The food pantry is being rebuilt and restocked. This will be my FIRST winter at home in 5 years. These two room turn completely storage with @MoparMom stuff and other thing. Now clean it all out and sorting stuff. Now the pantry is looking better fresh paint (Kilz) and top coat of interior latex. New shelf boards 3/4" OSB (expensive stuff). Then had @Wet Vette paint them too. Now after all that we really didn't eat dinner last night, more or less grazed. I cranked up the pipe with "White Widow" did 2 or 3 bowls of that. Then flip over later to the vape pen with "Pineapple Express". Shortly after that I was out cold. Woke up at 7:30am dry mouth and needing to take a leak. I slept good and hard all night. Feeling good this morning. Then the old shelves...That got over 30 years of service but bowed and getting rotten in places. Looking back in the picture archives... Yup... Cannabis was a great helper with controlling pain and helping relax last night. Being today is Saturday I'm not going to do anything. I'm going to enjoy a weekend for a day and relax.

Towing upgrades.
Now you need to modify even more to fit it and then build a controller to use it. Consult @Me78569 he's been there and back.

Another nv5600 fluid option
Mobil 50 SAE I'm running is a synthetic and it is a GL-4 gear lube which will protect all syncro's. It thick like 90 weight gear lube but rated for all Eaton Fuller 10 speeds in commercial applications. I prefer a thicker gear lube for transmission that is towing that a thin one that might give good shift performance.

PCM and wiring should be match to years. Being the PCM is the master coumpter and the wiring change several times through the years.

Towing upgrades.
Kind of is but small exhaust housing of a 9cm2. The only different between is mine is a 60/60/12 and the HE351 is a 60/60/9. Hybrid HX35/40 breathes better. I typically just buy the NAPA 85w-140 with modifier included. Just pour in.

Fuel Filter Housing Removal
Should of kept the stock filter. There is 3 reasons... 1. Fuel heater works in the winter time. The stock filter housing pull engine heat to warm fuel without out it gell up is possible. 2. The water in fuel light works too. AirDog 150 with stock filter down to -40*F no anti-gel and no supplement heat needed. Never gelled once yet. 3. Then my stock filter catches the stuff that the 3um AirDog missed. Stock on the left (7um) and the (3um) AirDog on the right.

Valvoline MTF is what I want to use next but can't my transmission re builder suggest against his because is not a synthetic.

New Bluetooth Stereo Kenwood
Little secret is look for the top 10 of the stereo type you want. Then filter out the double DIN stereos and then look at the single DINs left. I just did a search for top 10 Bluetooth stereos. After weeding out the others you left with small amount left. Also I was waiting for a pizza yesterday and the rock slide construction too. I figured out how to dial phone numbers. I can pan through my contact list, resent calls, or even manual dial using the radio knob. Then I've not had a good chance of trying the radio yet. Seems there is other digital stuff not sure. Bluetooth functions of the Kenwood tend to kick Quadzilla offline and cause a reconnect. Sometimes the radio drops the bluetooth and the cellphone is playing. Then touch the phone button and typically the radio rehooks up and start playing on the stereo and iQuad rehooks again. I'm going to work on the debugging and settings...

Cannabis
Typically that is my method of sleep now. Years ago I use to struggle to sleep. You'll find old post of me posting up at 2am, 3am or even 4am. Then I go back to my bedroom watch movies till I dropped dead which was typically 1 to 2 hours before the alarm. Ugh... Since Dec 2018, I've been smoking cannabis. (Coming up on 2 years) Typically my biggest dose is at night. Typically I don't touch any cannabis in the morning on working days or travel day. I play the day straight shooter. Like today I'm doing remodel our cellar today on the house. Yesterday we worked our off. Last night I proceeded to pound on the vape pen "Sour Diesel" one of my favorite for the day (Sativa) then @Wet Vette reminded me of the "Pineapple Express" (Indica) swapped carts on the battery. Then since we do have flower we grabded a few bowls of "White Widow" (Indica). I slept into 9:30am this morning. Energy level is good but body soreness is still there. Swap back to the "Sour Diesel" and that has reduced the soreness from about a 4-5 down to 2-3 maybe. Indica is in the couch. Sativa is head high. Much mellower and does not impair your body like Indica will. Sour Diesel tends to be also @Wet Vette favor it helps with her pain levels and keeps her motivated being its is a sativa. I've gotten rather fussy about my cannabis products. I typically look for the Sour Diesel or Blue Dream two very nice breeds of flower. Low spice in flavor, not a choking smoke either. Very smooth. "Kush" anything is always good too. There is a few terpenes I personally don't like. There is earthy toned and shroomy toned cannabis not a good flavor to it. Like a past memory of "Garlic, Onion, Mushroom Cookies". OMG. Nasty flavor very heavy shroomy taste like a old fungus on a tree. Smelled pleasing with strong smell of garlic and onions. I've seen others like this like Perma-Frost is along these lines where it a heavy mint flavor but spice level is high and will make a seasoned smoker choke hard.

Best injector for "MY" truck?
Just remember Bosch RV275 are sold as is. No pop pressure check, no pressure matching. No flow matching.

MPG
Very difficult to do with 37 inch tires and a 6 inch lift and most likely will not happen. My first question is what gears are in the axles? If you have 3.55 gear this will make your final ratio 3.07:1 to the ground too low of ratio. If you have 4.10 gear different story this would be 3.51 ratio which is good. Good final ratio to the ground is 3.55 to 3.73 for these truck. With RV275 injectors not really pushing the stock envelope. +40 HP isn't really all that big and won't require a lot of timing but with bigger tires your going to need a good amount of retard to get it to spool with 37 inch tires. Bigger tires typically on 3.55 gear places the cruise RPM too low at road speed and causes more excessive engine load. Watch your engine load on flat ground. When you hit the best timing your engine load will drop. Like Even @Me78569 will suggest 19° to 20° for cruise timing at 2K RPM. That bring me back around to the Ratio. Which is why I gotta ask optimal I'm finding is about 2K at 66 MPH or 82 MPH at 2,500 RPM. Engine loads are super low but this is a 3.69:1 ratio to the ground. Even towing my EGT's never got out of control and was very capable of holding 65 MPH speed limit and towing 17,300 gross combined weight. Like most of us have jumped towards 100 HP to 150 HP injectors. Now bigger injectors typically can take much more timing. In the winter (sub zero) my truck likes a 23° to 24° cruise timing now with summer time is 21° to 22°. For you with a mere RV275 injector I would say stick around 19° as a starting point. 14, 17, 20, 23... (+3 steeps between bands)Then +2° for cruise timing will give you roughly 19°. Load based timing set for 3°. Just for example my own tune I'm +4.5° between bands. 15, 19.5, 24.0, 28.5. Then +1° to cruise give me ~21° cruise timing at 2k. Our truck can take quite a wide range of timings without issues it a matter of paying attention to engine load. Engine load is the amount of fuel your dumping in to keep rolling. This why you should test out on true flat ground with cruise set. Then as you adjust timing you can see if the engine load rises (going away from good timing) or lowers engine load (heading towards optimal timing). Resent screen capture cruising at 65 MPH. +150 HP Injectors (7 x 0.010) @ 320 bar Quadzilla Adrenaline (Economy Tune) HX35/40 Hybrid (60/60/12) 245/75 R16 tires (30.5 Inches) 3.69:1 ratio final. 5 Speed NV4500 3.55 Gears

Best injector for "MY" truck?
Actually lifespan is what the pop tester shows. If you have Bosch OEM injector (Stock that came with my truck in 2002) now pop test 150 miles later and find the injector is under by 30 bar. Right out of the Dodge FSM... 4,250 PSI is equal to 293 bar 4,500 PSI is equal to 310 bar 4,750 PSI is equal to 327 bar. I'm set for 320 bar. Still under the spec. Once to dive under 290 or 280 the spray pattern gets rather large droplets and the efficiency is gone for the most part you can see a drop in MPG's. Even my stock injectors after 150k miles pop tested by DAP were at 260 bar after mere 150k miles. Well below the minimum pop pressure of 293 bar. Just like @pepsi71ocean he had a set of injectors after 28k miles lost 10 bar and put him at 280 bar. Started causing stalling issues. Like @Me78569 and a few other found after 330 bar it can cause hard starting in sub zero. At 320 bat I've had ZERO issue with hard starting all the way down to -40*F in New Meadows winter. MPG has been good. Then the engine load I'm low of 7 to 9% current. Still got lots of life in these injectors. Like @Ethan Shepherd when I installed a injection pump in his truck its got a 180k (some odd) miles and the injectors are wasted. The idle is 900 RPM and engine load is ZERO. The ECM can no longer defuel enough to get the idle down to 800 RPM. Like another member in Ontario, OR he's got about 150k miles on his truck and the engine load is ZERO. The idle RPM is 825 he just starting to lose the idle hold and the pop pressure has finally fallen enough to raise idle slightly. About 100k to 150k it seems to start loosing the idle control and pop pressure is below 293 bar.

Alternator Question
I just unhook the grid heater positive lead. From April to October my grid heaters are unhooked. Then from October to April I hook them back up for the winter season. MPG fooler prevents the pre heat of the grid heater but doesn't help with post heat.

Lower egts?
Like he said it doesn't help. But now as the ratio goes from 3.55 and lower towards 3.40 you start adding consider engine loads towing heavy trailers and could possibly add a bunch to EGT's. Also keep in mind that for every 1 pound of rotational mass you ditch is equal to pulling 8 pounds off the frame. Bigger tires are adding that rotational mass. That would get you back to 3.58 calc to the ground. Like myself I've switch to 245/75 R16 tires that is a 30 inch tire. Towing even with +150 HP Injectors and Quadzilla on KILL I can hold road speeds of 65 MPH and climb 6% and 7% grades to Arizona without tipping 1,200*F. My RV is 8,500 GVWR and 31 foot long giving me a total of 62 feet long and about 17,300 GCW. +150 HP Injectors (7 x 0.010) HX35/40 Turbo (60/60/12) Quadzilla (My towing tune) 245/75 R16 Tires 3.55 Gears (4WD and solid axles) 14.7 MPG MAX, 12.6 MPG AVG

Best injector for "MY" truck?
No. Bosch injectors have shorter life span. This why I shifted to custom build and up the pop pressure to enhance the lifespan. 100k to 150k max for Bosch. Then on top none of them are flow matched and none are check for margins. Just 6 random picked injectors. At least all custom injectors are flow matched for volume and for pressure. Like mine are within 3% but pressure and flow.
