Should start considering breaking this into group. West coast group is going to catfish. Then who ever else want to create you can made plans for the your area too.

The only thing I would do is crush the last few threads of the bolt so nut just can rattle off. You can hit them with a thin punch or small chisel as long as the last few threads are damaged it won't just rattle off.

Actually here in my yard I've got a 1 1/2" fire hydrant with 118 PSI of pressure so let me flip out a 100 feet of hose and we can have a water fight. Just looking over the map for the eclipse its going to go right over Weiser, Idaho just about. Looks about Council, ID is the northern border and then just bit north of Caldwell, Idaho is the southern boarder. So the problem is if you go north into the trees and mountain your range of view will be bad unless you got a ATV and can ride to look out tower. Down around Weiser, ID is nothing but high desert and low rolling hills so your range of view is really good. Just very little for trees down there.

If your going to do that bring some junk shoes or good river saddles.. I'm sure the river bottom is full of old fishing hooks.

Heck... I'll roll out the awing and your more than welcome to nap there or you can find a grass patch up near the small shade patch there. This Google photo is kind of poor and old. The first few slots are tucking in the trees with good shade. There is much more grass now than back when this photo was taken.

Seem like most are looking for shade. Snake river is good for fishing catfish but its slow moving water for the most part so yes there is insects and such as expected. Boon docking might have its own issues for areas large enough for number of people. RV parks like catfish I'm pretty sure we could cram everyone in there. Just folks like @Me78569 doesn't have A/C so he would need shade. I know there is like maybe 6 slots with full shade there at Catfish. I've got central air in my RV so I could easily just park in the open slot and fire up the A/C and stay fair cool for the day.

If I remember right its 225*F.

Dash gauge for the most part is correct and accurate. It's just digital displays give a absolute number where the needle on the dash might barely move hard to see a 5* change on the dash where like ScanGauge II or OBDLink will show an absolute number. As long as the needle stays in the normal bracket of the gauge you should be fine.

Hmmmm... Being the forest line starts at about Council, ID... There is one small campground "Mann Creek" north of Weiser Idaho small problem is that place has a bad tick problem. Does have shade. https://www.google.com/maps/@44.4120201,-116.9092818,270m/data=!3m1!1e3 Here is evergreen campground closer to my place about 100 miles from Catfish.

Typically really low system will have a cycling compressor even if you hold the throttle at 1,500 RPM. Now a close to right will be locked constant at an idle might see frost on the accumulator can still a sign of low charge. Prefect charge should hold the compressor locked at idle or 1,500 RPM and the accumulator can should sweat heavily. This typically found at about 35-40 PSI low side pressure. NOTE: Pressure numbers will vary depending on outside temperature and fan speed.

@Frankstein If your APPS wears out would you mine sending it too me... I'll cut it open and show the guts too.

ISSPro EV are mechanical... ISSPro EV2 are electronic programmable.

You might want to look at mt RV when it out the only shade it produces is for the RV. The ground is still very sunny.

Ron over at Northwest Machine. http://www.northwestmotormachine.com/about.html As for removal I don't see how you can pull a full engine with the cab on there isn't enough room to clear the pan before hitting cowl.

None to steal... Maybe sleep under JAG1 truck. I'm sure you don't want to hear us tromping around at night.

Got the cross brace out. It is a PITA to do by yourself. As for this engine I'm going to pull the head to get it out. Either the pan or the head. Head is easier for me right now and less messy. Re-installing I might have the shop eave the pan loose for the reinstall. 2WD 1 Ton truck.

1. Beer that's easy... Weiser, ID is a quick jump for beer. 2. Fishing. That's easy your got the Snake River to catch catfish. 3. Shade... That is a problem there is very little shade. Then I highly suggest you get your placement at Catfish junction.

Take notice to my coolant gauge here I've marked the green area as normal. You can see the open temperature of my thermostat. So I would have to say your thermostat is sticking. Heater core is going south if your smelling anti-freeze in the cab. Most likely got a small crack and the expanding coolant with pressure is force out a small crack or pin hole. Highly suggest a fuel pressure gauge. Most idiot light come on way too low. Like my old Cummins low fuel pressure would trip at 3.5 PSI. You need to be able to keep 14-20 PSI optimally. 10 PSI is stock low fuel pressure limit.

Well it depends on how many are going to actually show up. As you can see the Catfish junction doesn't really have much for shade. I think like 5-6 slots and the rest are out in the open. The only reason I would consider Catfish is for powering up the A/C but I really hate to be trapped in a shoe box RV listening to the A/C run. So most likely we'll be boondocking but I never know. Here is a evening photo of my last trip of boondocking alone the Snake River west of Catfish Junction.

I see someone has the Ford squat problem... LOL

Timbo do not adjust for voltage! Leave it alone... Stock APPS I would leave i alone. Wells APPS I would adjust it. As for the 2-4% TPS number it could be a module or programmer messing with the signal. Try removing them and see if it remains. Here shortly it might toss a P0121 code. If APPS reset gives relief but reoccurs again thee you dealing with an alternator issues with excessive AC noise that is messing with the ECM now.

At least my setup I'm still using stock hydros so the pedal effort is no different from stock to now. I can't speak for other clutch or people.

Another tidbit... About APPS relearn why is it that we have to do it? That's because again when your dealing with electronic device ECM vs. the APPS regardless of manufacture the APPS relearn only sets the lo and hi limit of the current APPS sensor. It just when you do a APPS reset your wiping out the memory on the ECM and the first key on your cycling from lo to hi volt range and turning the key off. This sets the limit of range for the ECM and it knows this is normal range now. So the ECM knows X volts is 0% throttle and Y volts is 100% or WOT.

Another answer... Now notice there is such a wide range of APPS voltage tags seen out there and Wells APPS stating to get in between 0.5 to 0.6 volts. Why? That's easy. When your dealing with electronics resistors and such are not exact in value its always in tolerance of 5% or 10% or may 20% so now the possible voltage toggle position could be any where between X to Y because one resistor could of been +2.5% and the other could of been -6.9% off the mark. I doubt it... If it would you could just turn the key ON (engine OFF) and press the pedal to the floor it would trip code if out of range.

If the WOT position is too high then it will trip the P0123 APPS volts too high then dead pedal on you. Most of this was learned from dealing with people doing it the wrong way and then creating bigger problems like this old CF article. http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/98-5-02-maintenance/13542-apps-adjustment.html This article will create all kinds of problems because typically your end voltage at the APPS will be too high and create problems for auto transmissions, high idle kits don't work nor does the exhaust brake. So this prompted me to learn and understand how the APPS sensor truly worked and then re-write the article here. No you don't. IVS is toggling properly for you so really there is nothing to worry about. It's when it quits working you start to worry. Again your trying to match range of motion to range of voltage. So the trick here is to make sure you can reach both your lo to hi volt range. I'm going to take some time in the future and do the testing for extreme limits of the APPS and create an article that will be more enhanced version of the basic voltage adjustment above. The lo volts is going to be tough being both mine and the the two extras are from 0.4xx to 0.6xx volts range. The hi volt spot I'm going to push mine as far as possible to find it. Take notice to the Timbo's APPS it not slotted in the mounting holes. Now look at the OEM and Wells APPS are both slotted and adds to the whole adjustment problem. On the Timbo's you just bolt it up and then set your idle stop screw. Wells and OEM you've got to find that range of motion that gives the most to the both. If you can get at least close then the rest should be good.
