Help with Quadzilla 3 cylinder/6 cylinder box
Still something wrong. Wrong values for 3 cyl and 6 cyl is half right with 123°F coolant. @Quadzilla Power

Help with Quadzilla 3 cylinder/6 cylinder box
Go back and check. 6 cyl should show 26°F IAT and 123°F ECT 3 cyl should show 13°F IAT and normal coolant display. Operation Turn switch to setting you wish. Start the engine. Then after high idle starts in 2 to 3 minutes you may turn it off again and high idle will continue till 170°F. NOTE: To slow of switch change could trigger only 3 cyl mode. If so turn the engine off and wait 10 seconds and restart to clear the previous 3 cylinder mode.

Good question.

4.11 Rear end
Correct. NV4500 with 5th gear at 0.75:1 ratio. 245/75 R16 tires which are 30.5 inches. Axle gear set 3.55:1.

2006 Dodge Ram 3500 - Thor Project
Project Thor continues... Mark found me a set of bumpers, 8 foot bed, and tailgate and swapping the flat bed and winch bumper. I'll post up photos what we see when I get to Jordan Valley, OR.

4.11 Rear end
I'm at 3.69 final ratio. 245/75 R16 tires vs. 265/75 R16 tires (stock). But I'm 3.55 geared axles. At 82 MPH turning exactly 2,500 RPM. Still getting upwards of 20 MPG. High RPM is not a issue and is way more efficient than 3.55 gears on 31.6" tires (265/75 R16) and use a 245/75 R16 which is 30.5" inch tires. Beast can fry the tires in every gear but 5th gear.

What all do you guys think about our times
Personally i dont believe so. First thing i did was turned of all TV. Second of i turned all American Social Media and jump on Tiktok and watch watch live congressional videos that are live. No i don't want 3 letter media news because it's all a lie. Now as for my travels on Tiktok the world is going around just fine. Like one gent reported back about Rednote social media and informed that in China they only pay 0.94 cent per pound for corn. Yup our Govt screwed us. As for the end times I've heard of this like 4 times since I've been in Idaho. Everytime something bad happen everyone claims it's the end times. I'm still here. So there is no end.

Driving with 5th gear removed
You are going to need an updated mainshaft and 5th gear. Also take note the torque of that nut is very high like 300 foot pounds. I'm pretty sure @Doubletrouble would know. Please do not just use a chisel and hammer to tighten the nut. It will fail again. Do not weld the nut either this will weaken the mainshaft.

Driving with 5th gear removed
I've done a trip from Ontario, OR to New Meadows ID was 125 mile trip in 4th gear limited to 45 MPH. I would suggesting fixing the transmission or haul it on a trailer there.

Electricity drain battery after a week sitting.
Inside the cab fuse box has plastic holder ls to pull out draw items like IOD fuse (Ignition Off Draw). Just pull the plastic holder and it will hold the fuse out of the socket for you. @Threadzy is right you should measure all your amperage draw total and on each fuse circuit to find the draw. Typically should be less than 100mA DC or less than 0.1 Amp DC

I'm still waiting to see this truck run. Oh it's going to be pretty and a radical oldie.

Cover your grill and you'll make 210°F easy. No your fan will not lock up excessively either.

Shaking my head. If it's a Timbos there is no voltage to set. Just be sure the bellcrank hits the idle contacts.

200℉ Cummins Thermostat
200℉ Cummins ThermostatI've been experimenting with hotter coolant temperatures and found for most daily drivers this is a good way to go. The added heat actually will improve the MPG number just slightly and reduce EGT's slightly. Gates - 34212 - 200℉This is direct replacement number. It will fit into your 1998.5 to 2002 Dodge Ram Cummins 5.9L engine without any modifications. ResultsSummer operation floats right around 204 to 210℉ coolant temperatures. With the tuning I've done on Quadzilla the engine oil temperature will stay 30 to 35℉ cooler than coolant. This stays the same for even wintertime operations with no issues so far in one year of operation even towing. In the picture below I'm using the transmission sensor in the oil gallery at the oil filter. Why hotter?Simply put the cooler you make the coolant the more the difference of temperature between the fire in the cylinder and the coolant will attract more heat energy back into the coolant wasting a percentage of power because of thermodynamics. The hotter you make the coolant the more heat energy there is for ignition of the fuel and don't require large amounts of timing to heat the fuel mist to a vapor to make it go bang. Remember liquid fuel doesn't burn till it is heated rapidly by compression and turned to a vapor now it will ignite easily. The other part is the less the expanding gases are cooled by coolant more power can be delivered to the wheels. View full Cummins article

2006 Dodge Ram 3500 - Thor Project
Both really. It is random depending on how deep the rail drains out. I've left both the lift pump gauge hooked up and typically watch the live data tool. Again numbers vary based on how much the rail drains off. Those are two different run cycles showing the changes from one start cycle to the next. Since this article I've been fighting this..

Another APPS Problem
All your testing are no good. You need a DVM capable of less than 2 volts AC with multiple frequencies, not just 60 hz. A household DVM will do this, which is why your test data is confusing. Look for a DVM like a Fluke or SnapOn DVMs which are very capable of multifrequencies and voltages less than 2 volts. Just look your DVM has a 200 VAC setting too large. Needs to be 2 VAC or less.

Still the logics of the ECM is calling for high return rate possible misaligned injector / crossover tube not seating. This is why the grid heater light and chime. Which also part of loss of prime issue possible all relayed but need to finish and try starting but now wait for mail back and forth.
