Spit/sputter misfire? Defueling?
Typically, on a diesel it is timing related too.

Questions about intake things
That's what I'm talking about the plate not the horn. The horn will fit no matter what. It the base plate and the integrated grid heater. Grid heater is below the plate not above like on our trucks.

Questions about intake things
I doubt a 4th gen intake plate will fit. I'll have to get a picture of the setup since I have got a 2012 Ram in the shop doing injectors on already.

Homemade pop off testers
You want a nice clear cone shaped spray pattern. Should be even in shape. Then pop pressure for us starts at 310 bar (4,500 PSI).

One of the best mods I ever did!
Make sure that if you guys do give the author a bit of thanks for his article.

Manually switching on fuel pump
You can run a 24V ISB as a standalone with the ECM. Problem. If you want diagnostics or work OBDII port you need both the PCM and the instrument cluster. The PCM starts the CCD Network bus. The Cluster is what gives bus bias to the CCD Network. If you do go the stand alone you completely with diagnostic information. Yeah there is the CANBus but its limited in what it can do being the diagnostics was based more so in the CCD Network side. Hence why weird things like engine coolant temperature only report to 204 then drops to -40 on the CANBus where the CCD bus works correctly. You could never run a Smarty or any kind of OBDII port tools on a standalone Cummins. As for the lift pump the ECM will still control the lift pump. Just controlled by tach signal. If you happen to wreck the tach hits zero the ECM cuts power to everything. As for starting and run its behaves like normal.

2012 Ram 6.7L
Got the truck and the go-ahead to pull the injectors for testing for $150. I know some of you are curious about what a 6.7L injector looks like. The truck has 195k miles on it. I found that number 6 had tooling mars on the side of the body. I'm betting that someone else was swapping injectors to make it just sell.

Instrument cluster issues
Clash of software. The cluster has to be a match for the PCM to make the CCD network being the PCM is the source of the CCD network and the cluster gives Bus Bias to the network so if there is a software mismatch then most likely it will not work. Really common with franken-trucks that get assembled from mismatched parts. Solution: get matching ECM, PCM and Cluster from the same truck and same year.

Smarty s03 today :)
That is the limitation of the Smarty S-03 you have no control of the timing to go above and beyond what the Smarty will allow. As I just released my Quadzilla Tune with the high timing and touched 21.32 MPG.

Fuel knock or timing knock or something else?
I'm going upwards I'm going to aim for mid 20's for a goal. My all-time high mark is 27.2 MPG. That was back on RV275's and Edge Comp. Just reaching 21 MPG on 150 HP injectors and Quadzilla is quite the feather in the cap.

Manually switching on fuel pump
If you have an accident and the fuel pump will continue to pump. I highly suggest having the ECM repaired so when the tach hits zero the fuel is shut off. After being to several accident scenes in not pretty when a fuel pump continues to pump fuel with a live fire.

Truck randomly dies HELP!
It's a bit difficult but you can remove the plug from the dash metal so you can see and check each pin.

Truck randomly dies HELP!
Check the pins in the OBDII port. It can and has happened to me where one pin pushed out.

Fuel knock or timing knock or something else?
Mine has a constant lope as it slows to stop. Once stopped it smooth idle. Doesn't bother me one bit.

The Quad is installed!
Just to show you don't have to play by the rules exactly. Like, in this case, I did the 100% start out for a reason of the Quad and ECM fighting down low are 1,200 RPM for handoff and start surging. Being the Quad is pulling fuel down the ECM keeps adding fuel so the surge continues. Now if you start at 100% the ECM and Quad are on equal playing ground the surge is minimized in town going from light to light at 30 MPH. This is more of Manual Transmission issue. Opps I see another thing I tapped 6 PSI... OPPS!

Smarty s03 today :)
Now the good question what are all you managing to get for MPG out of your Smarty S-03?

Kind of like in my case "Upgrade to 4 inch exhaust you'll love it will do all these magically performance boost." Actually... "Nothing happened performance wise, only the truck got louder" Sometimes upgrade don't do anything.

Recommendation on Trailer Tires
About ST trailer tires... Simple just want to make sure the tire never ran close or over its rate weight capacity or inflated at max pressure. If you have more tire capacity for weight and keep your pressure away from max you should be just fine.
