This is why my design came to be because it resolves all the issues. Freezup and blowing the mains problem which the drop down extension have been known to do. Resolves the crankcase smell in the cab. It resolves the spill problem for hard braking and 4WD operation.

While you are there pull your radiator out and power wash both side of it.

That's my spring time project for my truck my valve seal are leaking now and give me a nice blue smoke cloud on start up.

Works excellent. Keeps the oil in the crankcase where the extension method tends to still dip more than my version. I'm mostly highway now covering over 3,000 miles a month.

Heater controls is a vacuum pump or vacuum leak problem. I would check vacuum leaks first. Hard steering is most like the gear box needing to be rebuilt because seals are blown out or passages are plugged up. Most likely both being rarely do I find anyone that changes the power steering fluid at the recommended 30k miles intervals. Being you most like pass debris from the old pump there the system it most likely plugged ports up so you'll end up pulling the steering box out to rebuild it. I highly suggest you do not replace steering box but rebuild it. Most boxes can be rebuilt fairly cheap around 30 to 40 bucks and made tight again like OEM new box.

the CK-4 oil smell like Rotella (Rosmella) heavy oil vapor smell. You are fine then.

Watch your live data and see if there is any drop outs in voltage. If you had a Quadzilla I would say just watch the fuel signal if your reaching 4,095 then APPS is fine and making full throttle. The only other problem is weak spots where voltage drops quick.

What you need to do is find the wire at the Edge Juice module and unplug it and probe the socket with the key on and the voltage should be the same as the battery voltage at key on. This will verify the wire tap is solid. Remember Edge Juice performance is based on IAT and ECT temperatures. Colder on both the more sluggish it will become. Double check your sublevel setting on your main level.

I've got a fix for that.

Assuming you've got a stock turbo which would be an HX35 (54/60/12). It's about normal being they spin rather easy. Hard telling unless there is more data. Error codes? Any live data from the engine? How about your wire tap? If your wire tap is weak or bad it will create the sluggish performance.

I'm on the latest flash when was just updated about 2 days ago.

Weird. This morning tried again got the same 1,200 RPM without exhaust brake and turned ON the exhaust brake it dropped to 950 to 1,000 RPM for about a full minutes then amped up to 1,200 RPM with the exhaust brake turned ON. Ok, so it still works just has a lag to get up to full 1,200 RPM with exhaust brake on. Now after getting that all done. I turned OFF the exhaust brake so the cooldown timer could take over. Turned the key OFF and removed my keys. 30 Second later the high idle amped up and the truck refused to turn off. So I had to go back out tap the throttle to shut it down. Still got some bugs in there it's working but not great.

Typically there are few error codes with this. If you shift to 1st gear it will start from 1st gear again. I had the same problem with my 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 when the 46RE transmission started going south. Bad part was the transmission completely failed 2k miles after replacing the governor pressure sensor and solenoid. End up having @Dynamic rebuild mine with a few extra tweaks and now it a pretty aggressive transmission on that 5.9L V8 gasser. It tows good and drives like a sport truck now. So I highly suggest you talk to Dynamic and get some insight to what going on.

Wire gauge size should be based on AMPS and DISTANCE. Kind of like my solar panels in the yard are roughly 150 feet from the battery bank. It only 25 Amps at 24 Volts because of the distance I require 2 ought cable minimum to keep voltage loss down.

Can't you issue a FOR NEXT type loop to grow the fuel command without spiking? Or use a type of time delay to grow the fuel command? Because now the fuel is too short and exhaust brake warm up is worthless now.

Yeah. Apparently the sensor has a problem.

Ok, one last thing to try Unplug the sensor completely and start. Yes I know it will trip an error code but it should default to idle speed. I want to verify the actual idle speed. Is this one of our Timbo's APPS? If so could you drop over to the support ticket and send me a support ticket and we will handle a replacement Timbo Sensor.

Idle voltage doesn't matter. It's the angle of the sensor. It's a matter of getting the contact in the right zones. Again voltage doesn't matter at all! In idle position. When the IVS (Idle Validation Switch) is grounded on the idle position the voltage is disregarded and the ECM software for idle is used. So if the contacts are in the throttle position then the ECM idle software is shut down and the voltage is used to control engine speed.

Pull the plate back off and remove the Timbo's APPS sensor from the back. Now start again and see if it idles properly. If the IVS is seeing throttle position it will jump up in RPM's. When you release the sensor from the bellcrank it should idle normally if so this means the idle stop screw is too high and needs to be released.

Fixed the rolling high idle issue. It now cancels like it should. Now the high idle doesn't hold idle speed anymore. So once it jumps to 1,200 RPM and I drop the exhaust brake on it then it falls to 950 to 1,000 RPM's. The previous version worked correctly now this version the RPM's is sagging.

Why all that...??? We've got Timbo's APPS in the store...

Here you go... Awesome lights. The Morimoto HID are serious headlights and the PIAA are even brighter than the HID's and still street legal.

Tires and size. I ditched the 265's and went to 235's and only replaced 2 track bars in 330k miles. NAPA was my last one was really good lasted over 150k miles. I've got a lifetime Autozone now and I know it will fail soon. No grease zerk. I'm 47 so I'm right there with you...

Nothing a few phone calls and some deep pockets won't fix. My pockets aren't so deep now...

How I feel today. Taking on the internet world...
