  1. Hell yeah! Good for him... Now that's using your noodle and going after the work!
  2. @Dieselfuture Yeah, I've got a very good understanding of batteries, inverters and lighting. Like today would be a poor example being its +13*F above zero. I've got the heat pump running, fire in the wood stove and space heater by the computers. Back to the truck and LED lights within. That really surprised me when the next morning I walk out to the garage and find the truck lit up. Going OH S__T and wondering if it would start up. I plan on changing out more blubs for LEDs but my next batch I want to change tail lights and front marker lights. I know I've got to wire in a resistor to add enough load to get the flasher to act right. I'm going to use a change out bulb in the front that shows as a white light with parking lights. Then turns amber with turn signals. The rear tail light just do a standard red led bulbs. Backup lights and the cargo lights I'm going to beef up and get the brightest LED's I can find for the clear white light.
  3. Two wires... I know the cab end is 3 wires but I'm pretty sure that is for power seats.
  4. After wearing this watch for a bit. I notice that the samples of heart rate it does take are good for the app. But if you manual check its starts out about right then starts to climb as you watch the display. The tracking of movement is excellent. At least now I know that I travel almost 3 miles just walking around my house through the day. Compared to the LG Health app which only works well if you pack the phone in your back pocket. The sleep tracking is rather cool and shows that I've made a full 8 hours of sleep and how many hours were deep sleep based on heart rates. Again the samples the app is getting shows about right. I compared this to my blood pressure monitor and another app "Heart Rate Monitor" This app is rather cool and work just like the sensor at the hospital. The camera flash on the phone is lit up and then you place your finger over the camera and its ability to measure your heart rate from the camera. Both my blood pressure monitor and Heart Rate monitor agree with each other. Then there are alarms. This is cool I've got the medication alarm set up to remind me to take my hawthorn berry and my vitamin. Wake up alarm works too. Then set another to remind me to go pick up MoparMom on time. Very attention-grabbing vibration from the watch. Then displays what the alarm is. Then there are the notifications. You can set it up for SMS text messages, call notifications, social media notifications. Works well. Now take all your data and share against Google Fit which has a better capture of data. Both the "VeryFitPro" app and the "Heart Rate Monitor" app share with Google fit so you can get a full picture of how you're doing. For $30 bucks it's not bad I would say its worth it for the price. Not perfect but handy device...
  5. Do NOT use a quick ratio box with larger than stock tires. I've got a quick ratio box on 245/75 R16 tires and its awesome. Tight steering and better response. My old box was a old 4 turn as well. I could of done a seal kit on it and been good. All the internal parts were excellent. Just the seals were shot. Even Ryan from @Blue-Top Steering said that there was absolutely nothing wrong with my box but the input cap that I damaged from all the rust. Most steering boxes just need a seal kit, adjustment, and cleaned up.
  6. Bad valve seal ONLY shows up with the engine running and under load. Being with the piston at TDC both valves are closed and no pressure applied to either valve seals. Typically valve seals show up as oil smoke on startup either hot or cold.
  7. I just got to upgrade my micro SD card I can do 256 GB or 400 GB. Be aware some older phones have limits on how big of SD card they will address (both Apple and Android). After playing with both. The USB thumb drive is the winner. All the remote controls work correctly. Random and repeat work correctly. Track forward and track backwards is correct as well. MP3 track information is displayed. On Bluetooth mode, the forward track and reverse track hang up or pick up the phone. Bluetooth only displays phone controls. Dummy me, I forgot to plug in the antenna.
  8. 4,000 Watt Trace Inverter @ 24 Volts delivers 120 VAC at 33.3 Amps. I've got a step up transformer that produces 220 for the well pump. Only a small handful I don't power. Oven, Drier, Stove, Heat pump. Everything else is powered by the inverter.
  9. Just for verifying. Unhook the Quadzilla completely. (Wire Tap, MAP sensor, and CANBus). Then try again. This just leaves you back to stock ECM. If its still doing it with the Quadzilla then I would look at the injectors and have them verified. Quadzilla becomes active above 1,000-1,200 RPM's. So then I would have to say that your timing set up is too advanced. I would drop your timing back down again. I will admit a small secret that injector pop pressure does affect the timing you need. Like my 320 bar injectors need way more retarded timing than my worn out 7 x 0.0085 did. This is due to the fact the atomize droplets are much finer and require much less timing to go BANG! When injectors wear out and pop pressure falls below 293 bar now you adding timing because the droplets are larger and take way more time to heat, vaporize, and go BANG! Don't get carried away with timing too much... I know everyone says more timing is better but it based on pop pressure, cetane levels, IAT Temperature, Coolant temperature, etc.
  10. Ummm... Can you say $4,700 dollars for 8 batteries? Batteries are EXTREMELY expensive! My trace inverter was less, 21-years ago.
  11. I would highly suggest to have the injectors either pop tested or replace depending on how many miles. This would deal with the miss. Blow by could be produced by bad valve guides and valve seals too as I learned on mine. Start with fixing the miss by dealing with the injectors.
  12. What? Never routed like that. You might want to snap a picture.
  13. Should be only two wires. Just put a jumper between the two.
  14. Just remember you blow the fuse there is no resetting to get home. This is why I opted for resetable circuit breaker. If the breaker pops in short time then you know you've got a alternator issue.
  15. Why... I've got 120 VAC in the house. Standard outlets and lamp sockets.
  16. Kind of like myself wearing the hoodie that came with my 7 x 0.010 injectors.
  17. I would say yes. Subzero needs heaters.
  18. Being I'm doing the bicycle riding for my health. I will admit that my blood pressure from the day I went in for my surgery I've managed to knock it way down. I'm still considered high but nowhere near what I was. Now the app I was using comes on my phone which is LG Health. It does track everything ONLY if you pack your phone around every where. I tend to leave my cell phone in my bedroom on home days. That doesn't track my daily movements. I went out and got cheap china made watch with heart rate monitor. Letscom Neat little watch battery life that is a full 7 days. Alerts from your phone. Then I can download the data of my travels to my cellphone. Now it tracks all my movement through the house and doing daily tasks like getting firewood or laundry. This little watch can even tell you how you sleep at night. Did you sleep deeply or light and toss and turn. As for the heart rate part it fairly right. I found that watch has to be snug to your arm for the sensor to work good. I'm going to do my first bicycle ride with it today. I report more on that trip. As for yesterday, I managed to walk 3 miles just doing my daily tasks here at the house. Alarms there is an alarm feature I like I've got it set up to remind me to take my hawthorn berry and multivitamins. It vibrates on your rist and shows a pill icon. Waking up to the alarm in the morning is really nice too. Vibrates little pulses, then gets longer and stronger. Tap the touch button and it stops. Recharging is simple the watch band pulls off the button side and it has a USB plug and just plug it in. It was fully charged when I got the watch and just needed a10-minute charge to activate the watch.
  19. Done something stupid last night. I made that one video and using the interior light switch on the dash. Made the video and got out of the truck and left the light on didn't even notice. 12 hours later the batteries are at 12.2 volts the next morning and the truck still started. These little LED light draw so little they had zero impact on the starting the truck. I had to share this.
  20. So you going to use a dead phone and fire up the Quadzilla. As for the CACA stereo no need for the phone. Just use a micro SD drive or USB thumb. Yeah, I'm going to switch over to USB 256GB thumb drive. I've only got 32 GB of storage total on my phone. I've got it to automatically pair up on Bluetooth. USB thumb drive quicker and hold much more. I've got another flip phone you can have I give it to you. Yeah... I've got to drive so much to take care of @MoparMom that I've got to have phone service. 13 hours a day, 39 hours a week I'm on the road. I'm looking at the safety factor. Talking on the phone through a stereo is kind of interesting works rather well. Texting can be done by voice commands which I'm also known to do. "Send a message to..." and the phone automagically open the text message box and you speak your message. Tell it to "Send" and it is gone. Works really well. Never have to look down. When the reply comes then the phone automatically tells me "someone" is sending a message and it read over the stereo. Even tell Google to "Open iQuad" and the Quadzilla app opens and starts up. Days of holding your phone and pushing buttons are long gone. Everything can be done by voice commands. I will admit sometimes Google can be a bit frustrating where you try and try and it refuses to understand the word that is coming out of your mouth. Duh?!
  21. The sound is OK. Remember I'm using my old stock speakers yet. My Kenwood had more power but this is fine so far. Plate I've used for 3 different radios. I bought the filler plate years ago back at WalMart as a kit. More radio shops carry them. Why? Use a Micro SD card it holds much more for music. I'm going to try my thumb drive I've got a 256 GB one and the stereo has a USB slot. A newer smartphone won't do you much good being there is no service. Being that Oregon is a handsfree state and Idaho is going to be one soon. I might as well upgrade to use a normal smartphone for phone call without handling the phone. Using a use phone without service defeats the purpose of the bluetooth. If you want music only on this head unit just buy a Mirco SD card 256 GB for $20. That one SD card will hold a total of 365 700-minute audio CD's.
