"Best" spot to mount FASS or Airdog pump?
I've install several FASS system but the filter are always still hanging in the damage path from the front tires. I've seen a few ranchers locally dent the filters from throwing stones from the dirt roads. All you need is one little hole and the system fails. I've also seen last winter where a FASS system froze up because of the bitter cold and was popping fuses not to mention it had gelling issues way more than my truck does. 15 years of bit cold winter down to -35*F and never gelled up once yet. This AirDog is heading for 12 years old and still pumping fuel without a single issue.

New: Delo 400 SDE SAE 15W-40
Personally I won't worry about it. We went through the same scare about going from CI-4 to CJ-4... My truck is running fine still. I really doubt oil companies would sell an oil that causes damage. It would be one he'll of class action lawsuit.

"Best" spot to mount FASS or Airdog pump?
I've got mine tucked behind the transfer case. This keeps the blowing cold wind off it, out of the debris path from the front tires, also the skid plate protects the filters from road debris that might be kicked up.

Nuts and bolts
Might be best to hit a salvage yard to get the right nuts and bolts. The hood nuts have a wide fender washer integrated with nut.

Help-Cummins Down............
If your electrical is in good order no extra grounds are required. Look in at 302k miles and never added a extra ground at all. No noise issues as long as the alternator is in good condition. Again extra grounds are NOT suggested or required. Fix the actual problem being the AC noise generated by a bad alternator.

You could but it will be a bit troublesome being the bolts are on the bottom of the fender. You got to lay on the ground and bolts are most likely rusted in place and will break the clips.

47re tranny problems
During the rebuild of my 46RE he showed me the notch in the valve body plate that controls how fast the fluid dumps for engaging the lockup clutch. So like we discussed there no reason for my application but a person could open the port more and causing the clutch hit faster or have a custom plate that is smaller dump port and engage slower.

Pull the battery out. You should have enough access.

2000 Dodge cummins 24 valve vaccum hose
Air brake line is cheap and much more durable than cheap rubber vacuum hose. Really isn't much to the vacuum system. No you don't need dealer for any of that. Napa part store should have most everything you'd need for fittings and connector.

New Turbo
I remember someone mentioning that 3/4" heater hose did not fit and it was too small.

Website Management
I've been doing web management as a hobby for many years helping out folks try to keep their websites going. Now I'm trying to take it to the next level and start another business doing website management. Apparently, I've done something right to keep my own site going this far and the few others I've been working with.

Website Management
First @dripley has to come to Idaho to even provide the tail whipping. But I'll hear about all the Idaho Potato jokes first. Seriously. I just spent another hour on the phone attempting to get a database backup for SmartyResource and the techs still can't provide a solid backup yet. So I've spent my evening now setting up the laptop and copying all the needed data so I can pack it with me tomorrow and be getting some work done hopefully. I'll still float in and look around but might not post much...

Website Management
Some of you already know I do website management on the side. Like I know some of you know that SmartyResource is down for the past few days. I'm fighting to get the site up and running ASAP for the owner. My problem is the old hosting company servers are too small for the forum and trying to get a clean backup to transfer it all over to the new hosting company. SmartyResource will be running the same forum software as we are here. Then I've got the other local Idaho base forum I've been managing as well IdahoTurboDiesels.Com . So this explains why I'm here for a time then gone for a few days or just not posting much. I figured I would share with you all what I've been up to and doing in my spare time.

head lights
Multifunction is most common... Just remember everything below the bulb is all ground circuit. So the headlight ground is in the driver side kick panel. This is where the center of the dash ground goes after that point.

Headlight
Any part store. Cut off the old plug and wire back to the same pins as it was on the stock plug. Like the batch I got from Autozone fairly cheap and just wire them on.

Good solar deal / today only
Not bad... 100 watts is a lot of juice 12V wise. I'm still running only 45w on my RV yet still working just fine.

Fan belts squeaks
My case it was only if the engine was running it would make noise. Now it does squeak a bit at first start up but once the belt warms up its dead quiet the rest of the day. Doesn't even squeak when shutting down.

Worth trying....Olive Oil on truck.
Pictures? Seems like an rather unusual solution...

You not far away... Pacific Northwest? Heck @Me78569 is coming from Colorado. Might get @dripley from the East Coast there too. Time will tell...

47re shift solenoid ?
Being it's an automatic you might look for the BD noise filter on the PCM and remove it. Then have the alternator tested. I've seen so many trucks with AC noise issues that lose injection pumps and ECM because someone installed a noise filter and modified grounds.
