Simple fix go out on Amazon and order military style terminals and a set of copper lugs. I prefer soldering my lugs being it seals the copper from corrosion. Then you just need to change terminals when damaged again. Cables rarely go bad unless the corrosion is deep into the strands which is why I like soldering my lugs. Stops that from happening. Dumb question? What are the only 2 materials that can contain sulphuric acid? One is glass and the other is plastic. What is plastic made from? OIL. Cover you battery terminals with engine oil they will never rot again. Now seeing the ground lead where you scrubbed all the paint back your going to start rusting I highly suggest to repaint those spots being it will rust and create weak ground connection. I would paint the metal and let it dry then shot the bolt and terminal back on.

Yeah too many issues with neo bladder. Need more small intestine. Possibly need to Catherize to urinate, incontinence is the other side.

Oh, my story goes on from here. I've had a stay over at Ontario OR for my first chemo treatment. I was in full makeup and hair for both days down there. I was in my midnight blue hair and full-color makeup with blue eyeshadow and black as well. The doctor explained to me I would have an external bag that ultimately I would be peeing into for the rest of my life. I discussed the Neo-bladder idea and he's explaining the issues with neo-bladders. In any case, they will take a small piece of my small intestine and plumb my kidneys to my right side of my belly. Still on course for this surgery. So as for my chemo, they figure I'll be going till JUNE. Yup, the schedule is set, two Tuesdays and skip a Tuesday, then repeat. As for the nausea meds well Rusti my IV nurse pumped in a good amount of meds that held me over till midnight last night. I'm hoping for a call back soon and get this figured out and get my nausea meds taken slightly early to allow me to sleep. OK now as for my make-up and attitude. Everyone could tell I'm extremely positive and looking forward. My pharmacist was surprised I was handling two tech calls on diesel trucks and did it very professionally. Rusti my IV tech put me up to the test she wants me to do my light blue hair which none of you have ever seen yet. Now to figure out the makeup and I've got 1 week till I return. My social worker loves the different looks I stopped in to drop off papers that morning and she again asked about my makeup and the products I'm using. All the staff can spot me quickly and they remember easily on phone like the one I placed this morning. I was wanting to pass info back about times of meds run length and such. Do you remember me black and purple hair? "Oh yeah, you were here yesterday." Yup, that was me. Now for those that want to follow this story in TikTok I've started another adventure where on my travels back and forth to my chemo I'm in fully make-up and hair and attempting to get people to ask or comment on my looks then ask if they mine grabbing a photo with me? So far no problems everyone wants to be involved and so here we go... My profile page... https://www.tiktok.com/@titaniumgoth?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc So consider the thought of my life where I'm here at home alone. It drives me crazy being there is no one here to talk to or anything. I can do my activity or I start to bleed. It was tough on me to do the driving to the doctor's office and then to chemo yeah I was bleeding from that. The thing is the energy I bring to the room is amazing. All my crew around me love it. Dietitian, she is very impressed. My social worker loves the fact I change looks every time to something different to keep her guessing. The people I see during my travels like the video above were the hotel I stayed at to the two gals working the desks loved the look. The other photo is of a gal I crossed paths with in a Spencer Clothing store I picked up a few tee shirts but she liked the look and wanted in the TT. More to come...

Well, here we go. I've started my first round of chemo. I'm doing good and sitting here with my laptop and getting fired up to work on the website and fix what I can. My chemo for the first day is rather intense and going to be rather interesting all my medical staff are super cool. Even my social worker just stopped by to make sure of scheduling and travel for me. As for nurses they are handling my needs even with food and drink and even explaining what is going to happen etc. All great people! I've had my visit with my doctors and understand what I'm going to have to do and how long. The schedule seems to be heading out towards JUNE. Yeah it's going to be every Tuesday skip on my 3rd Tuesday for chemo. The bags will stay on me for the full-time till my surgery in June. I'm truly blessed by all the medical staff around me taking care of my cancer treatments. All I can say is... "Thank you, Lord, for all the wonderful people handling my health."

It's a Cummins I would have to add it to the family. So there is the old favorite Beast. Then there is Thor. Then Minnie my lil mini van. Then I'd have to bring George to the pile.

Why?!?! I would love it, pet it and call it George.

Ok here we go again. I had a day where I got dressed up and went to town to drop Jake off for work. I did things differently this time went with midnight blue hair short cut, midnight blue eyeshadow then black lip stain. Dropped Jake off for work. I've got Erica hanging out with me and I stopped over at River Rock Cafe and ordered a pizza. We waited out in Minnie Erica wanted to grab some drinks so we headed over to Grocery Store in Riggins ID. Yup even seen my neighbors in the store. Explained my cancer and doing chemo. Finished at the store to grab the pizza. Guess what I return back and told my pizza was free again. The crust was not cooked right so I got the pizza for free.

Might be true. Ill give you this hook up a Qaudzilla to check the fuel temperature. This does have a impact on life span of the VP44 / PSG module. Yeah it sucks but i remember the whole move tosuction line 1/2 inch was put in sender basket. Sad part those people fought with super short filter changes and VP44 with electronic issues (error codes) from hot fuel. This is why I bucked the system to find better ways the give the best longevity. DrawStraws now are built really good and rare to leak. I've installed several which I've got a tweak to prevent 1/4 tank slosh issues.

No. Plumb the return to the sender so the heat remains in a confined space and put a draw straw elsewhere so you keep a larger pool of cooler fuel. Also don't do a sump or bottom draw. Replacing fuel tanks are very expensive.

Do not draw from the sender bad idea being the fuel is much hotter from the return hot fuel from the rear of the head which can be 190°F. Best to have a draw straw in the main fuel tank outside the sender basket. This will provide much cooler fuel. Like my hottest in the summer is 120°F fuel temps on a 100°F outside temperature day. The cooler you can keep your fuel temperature you'll find out you don't have to change filters very often. Like my average filter change is 60,000 to 80,000 because I'm not creating asphaltenes which occurs somewhere between 140°F to 150°F fuel temperature which will require filter changes every 15,000 miles because the asphaltene will plug up the filters with a black material from over heating the fuel.

Thanks @PilotHouse2500 for understanding. My plan is I've got chemo in a week. I'm going to pack my laptop and stuff and be working on getting work done on the website. Also start my rebuild of the store get the framework done and get vendors and products organized. I just leave out the payment processor. Then everyone can drool when I throw the processor in. Even when I go to chemo I'll be the spice of life I'll continue my makeup and look because I'm not going to just lay down and die. Nope. Yeah I know what I'm in for being I dealt with my mom's dialysis and how everyone is just quiet. Nope. I'm going to make time fly for 6 hours I've got to be there. Like today I got some good sleep and slept in till 8:30am. I'm learning how to live with my cyborg body. So today I'm being cool and letting my roommate (Jake) sleep in a bit on his day off. Then we are going to McCall to attempt to get some basic food needs covered till we go to Lewiston. Mark did me the favor on Minnie get tires on the minivan. So things are working out. I'll admit that it very hard mentally to shut down my normal life and do nothing for at least a month and continue. Like today I'm going enjoy doing my make up for the black and purple hair because I've got a few women that love the look. I'm learning the purple is more of a women favorite where my black and blue is more of a guy favorite. No I don't mean this in in any g a y means. What I mean is if im interfacing with women more the purple works the best. If im interfacing with guys more the black and blue works best. It rather interresting learning the secrets of social and dressing up and how it impact how people react to me. I'm hoping for another "Your F--king Goregous" moment which happen about a week ago.

Just a heads up to reply back to @JAG1 The only reason I promote the painted metal versus grease cover bare metal. Being in Idaho we use a lot of salt on the highways and exposed metals disappeared rather quickly. This is because so many people scrub off a huge area of exposed metal and now the salt water will rinse grease and oil off rather well and shortly after 2 to 3 years that ground isn't hooked up at all because the entire area is stripped of paint has now rusted away, just gone. Happens more than you realize.

Well, I made it through a minor surgery changing out my plumbing going to my kidneys. Here is a shocker I did this short 20-minute surgery with no anesthesia or painkillers of any kind. The doctor wanted to make sure I could drive home. My surgeon was super cool by allowing me to watch the process on my own monitor. The surgeon slid the key into my left tube and unlocked it and then swapped it out. I didn't even feel it at all. Then he told me he was testing with dye and sure enough I saw it flow but I had to tell the surgeon to ease up my bladder shrunk up and didn't hold much anymore. Same on the other side and then the only drug I was given was a small shot of local to all the surgeons to tie my tubes in place to my skin in my back. After that, I was wheeled into my little cove, got dressed, and left. I was driving home. For my next appointment, I'm heading back to Boise ID for a post-op meeting with my doctor. Then afterward I've got my hotel arranged for me over in Oregon so I can partake of my painkiller before my first chemo visit. I've got to embrace the suck here... I know that chemo is going to make me sick and I'm possibly going to lose my hair from the chemo. Thank Gwad I've been working on my artistry and my wigs and I'm still improving...

@dieselautopower I'm pretty sure he's still got his rental Smarty for doing high idle enable.

Thank you @jlwelding... That the thing Good Lord is bring my true friends forward in my time of need and accept me for who I am. Fact is currently the only aid I can provide to anyone right now is the knowledge in my mind. Just because of my make up work is just something fun for me to work at. Nothing I'm doing is permanent like tattoos or piercing that are more permanent. With what I'm doing is a wig which I can pull off and brush out. Then the make up washes of fairly easy. Yes appreciate your offer to talk to me when ever that is awesome. See I believe in the Good Lord and he's given me all the blessing I can get. Two awesome doctors and just my two social case workers gave been making sure all my needs are taken care of. I've been blessed by all these people that are taking action on my be half. When I pray at all I'm Thanking the Good Lord for providing me all the people that are dealing with my medical issues. I don't need to pray for pain relieve because this is my pain to bear. It's my challenge to over come. So I'm not asking for the Goid Lord to fix me but thank him for bring the people into my life that are making a difference.

Now you understand why I have times where now I enjoy my happiness in doing my makeup work and wearing my wigs being I know all you need me to help you through your troubles on your trucks but I need to make it through my troubling times alone with my cancer. This is why I have depression at times and struggle to just keep going Because I'm there for you all but no one is there for me. The way I put a smile on my face and others around me is now with my makeup artistry, wigs and my Goth dress mode and my way of enjoying a small slice of time where I get to forget that I'm fighting cancer but able to enjoy even a small bit of time of happiness. Looking forward to driving 3 hours south for surgery to replace all the plumbing on my body and then start my chemo shortly afterwards where I'm going to enjoy the thought of nausea and loss of hair. Right now I'm waiting for the house to warm up and allow me to get a shower and I will do my makeup today being it gives me happiness and people around me enjoy my artistry. Yes, the fact I struggle to get sleep every night. I struggle with bags that leak on my bed. Yes, I struggle with my right bag pulling apart and leaking urine down my leg. I can't do much of anything without my action causing me to bleed in my bladder. I'm confined by my health issues (bladder cancer) and so be it I'll enjoy making myself happy and others around me with my makeup artistry Emo Goth mode.

I need everyone to watch this it's exactly what I'm dealing with. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPR36UeKn/

I've been pulling 5 and 6 speeds in my shop with the truck on level ground and only using a floor jack. I've got tricks on how to tie a transmission to a floor jack using one ratchet strap. Then learn other tricks for 3rd Gens and up on getting one stabbed easier than normal. Which happened to be the last clutch job I'll ever do. Was on a G56 transmission 2008 Ram 3500 and did a dual disc clutch on the floor. Give me a call sometime I'll have to explain how to wrap the ratchet strap and where to hook on the floor jack.

No problem here to help any way I can.

Here you go. https://mopar1973man.com/garage/ Look under browse in the menu then you'll see Garage.

Do not weld. Do it right get the proper tools and torque it to the proper torque amount. No hammer and chisel tightening. I know @Doubletrouble just rebuilt his transmission himself and not hard to do either.

Best to use the garage and add all you mods there. Take a peek at my signature your redirected to my garage page and can see my mods.

Yeah even my home brew grill inserts and held in by a single bolt in each but doesn't block all cold air completely. Still in all I can still reach 70°F IAT on a zero degree day. I'm finding that the whole cold air intakes actually degrades MPG and daily driver efficiency being we are not running WOT all the time so cold air impacts the ability to convert liquid diesel to vapor to ignition takes much longer. If your running stock tuning then the ECMstack on additional 4 degrees advancement when IAT drops to 79°F.
