Fender well look up under the fender skirt there should be 2 more bolts.

AC ripple Testing
Depends. Full load ripple is going to be much higher typically the local NAPA passright right around 1.0 volts AC at full load 136 Amps. Idling engine and no load with DVM you want to be 50mV AC or less. Output voltage is meaningless. It the ripple voltage that is critical here.

Radiator flush
Never touched distilled water. Either used well water or creek water. Closing in on 400k miles and still have ZERO scale build up in 17 years and 390k miles. Open the drain, pull the thermostat and chuck it in the trash. Flush the block with lots and lots of water with the engine idling. With the thermostat out the water will flow rather easy and fast even at idle. Once the engine is flushed out allow all water to drain. First gallon of coolant I put in 100%. All following coolant will be mixed 50/50. Fill till the coolant is just about to spill out of the thermostat hole. Install a NEW NAPA thermostat 190°F thermostat. Then top off with coolant. Go for drive watch for the thermostat to open. Come back and check your coolant level. Be careful the coolant and engine is now hot. Never touched distilled water... 17 years, 390k miles, no scale build up or failures as of yet. Still have my OEM water pump and radiator. This is how much coolant is left with just the drain cock on the radiator. Next to nothing. If you want more out just park nose down. My water source, my irrigation dam 1/3 of a mile behind the house. Just about due for a coolant change too.

My economy tune doesn't require wire tap. I typically use level 2 or 3 for daily driving to limit fuel tables as needed. 4 and above just added fuel and degrades the MPG numbers.

Dreaded White smoke.
When the head was done was the valve guides all replaced? If not the valve seals will not hold up. The valve will move and rock and tear up the valve seals. Typically if you in the smoke it will smell like burning engine oil. Do you have any P0216 code? Bad injection pump with a stuck or seized timing piston will create some weird issues. How old are the injectors (mileage)? It's possible the pop pressure is too low and the idle spray pattern is pissy and creating the blue smoke from poor pop pressure. This will have the smell of raw fuel and typically burns the eyes.

Cellphone service at home
Network extenders are really common down here. There is at least 4 or 5 places I know that have the extenders and work rather well. I can stop out if front of the these homes along the highway and place phone calls. My mistake was I bought a refurbished unit that had issues still. Verizon Tech Support sent the new unit 4G Samsung to replace the old obsolete unit. Verizon informed me that 3G unit will be pulled from service very soon like the end of the year. I would had to upgrade anyways. The 3G Samsung worked really good providing signal across my entire yard. Worked really well. Just for some reason the unit would kick out and re-start training for internet signal and GPS signal all over. Taking up to 2 hours to come back on line. The new 4G unit came with a GPS extension cord so I could get the GPS head to the east side of the building and now have at least 6 GPS satellites. Just in the time to type this the unit is setup and complete. 4G signal and functional.

Faulty Cruise Control
PCM fault, Central Timer fault, wiring issues, etc.

Bucking at low RPM's
In a nutshell. "Max Timing" sets the maximum limit of advancement, excluding cruise timing which stacks on top of this. Now the rest of the setting like load based timing and low psi timing reduct are all amounts of retarding from the Max Timing number. The other clue is oil temperature oil should be roughly -10°F cooler than coolant temperature. If oil temperature is above coolant your too advanced and burning too much fuel on the cylinder wall and not in the bowl of the piston. If the oil temperature is colder than -10°F then you most likely retarded too deeply burn most of the fuel on the downward stoke and blowing most of the fire out the exhaust. This is not exact science but a good way to find timing range.

Tie rod ends
My OEM tie rod ends lasted till 350k miles. Replaced with greasable NAPA and so far still doing great. Steering is still tight and still straight. Almost to 390k miles. Still running 1,000 miles a week. I know there is no reason to chase the upgrade ends (T vs Y steering) nor attempt to chase down the OEM original that lasted 350k miles being its no longer manufactured and I've got no lift or leveling kits so the geometry of my front axles is still correct. I'm running 30 inch tires (254/75 R16) and it reduces the stress on the joints just a bit.

Detailing stuff waxes, plastic preservatives, etc
As for the plastics I've been using... Armor-All. Most people use it wrong. I spray it on in the heat of the day with the door open and allow it to bake to clear state on the plastic. DO NOT wipe off. Just spray on and wall away. I'll admit I've got a few crack but my dash has lasted much longer than most folks. Exterior is tough being its exposed to weather so any kind of spray on plastic treatment will wash off in the rain or snow.

Actually documentation of Cannabis in the medical field.
Source... https://www.trueactivist.com/there-are-now-100-scientific-studies-proving-cannabis-cures-cancer/ Despite the fact that countless individuals have used cannabis oil to heal their afflictions, the U.S. Cancer Institute lists cannabis as a ‘cure’ for cancer on its website, and a multitude of veterans credit the herb with helping them ditch opioids and alleviate symptoms of PTSD, the marijuana plant remains classified as a Schedule I drug in the United States. In fact, in most countries around the world, use of the herb and its components for medicinal and recreational purposes remains to be illegal. This continues, regardless of the fact that 0 people die from using the herb each year. In contrast, 30,722 die from alcohol poisoning and 38,329 from abusing pharmaceuticals annually (according to 2014 data). Some activists, such as Rick Simpson, have suggested that the plant is still illegal in the U.S. on a Federal level because of its multitude of uses. A part of the plant known as hemp can be used for clothing, food, and industrial purposes, and components of the ‘flower’ known as marijuana can inspire creativity, free-thinking and, of course, contribute to healing. It is an injustice that individuals are refused access to the herb considering it is 100% natural and has been cultivated for thousands of years. Additionally, at least 100 studies prove that the plant can combat one of the most frightening modern afflictions: cancer. As 1 in 2 women and 1 in 3 men are predicted to develop cancer in their lifetimes, it is past time the herb lose its stigma and Schedule I status so that citizens worldwide might benefit from its many properties.

Looses prime
Air leaks. Typically occur on the suction side where there is no pressure but vacuum that draws air in. What happens is you park the truck it continues to draw air into till the system has lost prime. Get it running as soon as you shut down pressurized the fuel tank using blow gun and a rag. Now have a second person hunt for moist joint with the system pressurized. Only need 1 to 2 PSI. Don't get crazy with pressure.

Riding lawn mowers good/bad&ugly
What?! I get busy and... Ok, so your going to give away my little secret. Yup I do have a girlfriend in Nampa, ID. No, she whe work in the medical field. No, she owns a small car Kia or Hundai. No, our schedule rarely match up. Back as for the lawn mowers mine has a bit more than 40 hours on the engine and working good. I've got a few slow leaking tires I need to fix on that. Should do that tomorrow. Need to mow my lawn.

Here is the article on my gauge setup. This is the line you need to buy... It goes from the bottom of the stock filter to the VP44. Comes with a push lock tee for your fuel pressure gauge.

Cellphone service at home
As of about 3 hours ago. This Samsung Network Extender quit. I managed to get 24 hours of service from it and then now its stuck trying to get a GPS signal again for E911 calls and drop the cell signal. I called Verizon they are going to do a full replacement of the unit and upgrade to 4G network extender because they plan on making this unit obsolete. Ships Monday morning and should be here Wednesday. 315 number is down for the time.
