How to detect if the Cummins 24v VP44 ECM has been enabled for high idle? It not to hard to check to see if you have high idle software present. The only thing you need is a resistor that is a 39k ohm or greater up to no more than 100k ohm resistor. The other requirement is to have a cold engine. Engine coolant temperature must be below 140*F for this test to work properly. Just unplug the IAT sensor and take your resistor and fold the legs over and insert into the plug. Make sure to the IAT and the resistor are not touch metal or ground. You could put a fold of tape over the plug and resistor for temporary cover. Now just start your truck and leave it idle don't touch the throttle, brakes, trans (auto), etc. Leave it alone for up to 5 minutes. Typically 2-3 minutes you should hear the idle ramping up to 1,200 RPM's. If the resistor is greater than 56K ohms then the 3 cylinder high idle will pop up next after reaching 1,200 RPM's. Here is the IAT plug removed from the IAT sensor. Here is with a resistor inserted into the two sockets of the IAT plug.

Check this out. It makes "Obama Care" a joke. http://www.angelusnews.com/news/national/cost-and-conscience-why-more-christians-are-ditching-health-insurance-for-this-a-9920/#.VqbDd15VKlN

Yeah but, that river flows from somewhere inland...

Yuck... Damn Midwest silt.

Now you know you need to go to your friend house and steal his off his truck. Tell him he don't need it.

If the truck is parked you can use 3 CYL or 6 CYL mode only. If the truck is moving or being driven then you can use OFF or MPG mode only. You cannot use 6 CYL or 3 CYL modes while the truck is moving. 6 CYL mode fools the coolant temp really low so the high idle can start. Which it cannot start because the speed is above 0 MPH and TPS is above an idle. Using either one of these modes will degrade MPG numbers.

That right there keeps the rain from pouring into the engine area.

Being a 12V fuel shutoff relay is located on the cowl on the driver side about 1/3 of the way over. What make the difference is if the relay is hung up-side-down which will allow water to leak into it. Also if your missing the cowl weather strip this problem is worse.

If you had a way to drag it down here to me I more than be willing to drop a engine in for you. I've got the tools, the shop and even the hoist for it. You find a long block I'll stuff it in for you.

Between weak batteries, bad battery cables and failing alternator with excessive AC noise will create your issues. Alternator AC voltage should be roughly 0.01 to 0.03 AC volts, marginal is 0.05 AC volts complete failure is 0.1 AC volts and above. Bad battery terminals and cables can be tested by doing a voltage drop test. As for the batteries they need to be load tested. If any fails replace both.

Kind of like my Innova scan tool. http://pro.innova.com/Product/FullDetail/f968c286-07ab-46b7-bfd5-bae40673742e http://www.amazon.com/Innova-31603-CarScan-Scan-Tool/dp/B00D2I0IDG

Come to my neighborhood there is so many people without jobs and on welfare it would make most people sick to look at. I was helping a friend that works at the local Chevron Station and they closed down early on the shop side at 2pm because no business. Let's say for the day day they made less than $100 in sales. Business is not going good locally at all. Unemployment is very high here. Friend of mine that lives in Walla Walla WA his wife just lost her job as a Manager at the Taco Bell and now been reduced to normal worker because she was making too much money and corporate couldn't pay her any longer. So, either had a choice get fired or get reduced. Another gent I went to look at a vehicle admitted to being super slow and they really need the income from the fishing torment that is coming soon.

Until you attempt to unhook it and do a injection pump.

Been in the 40s for most of this week and majority of the snow here in the yard is gone. I'm glad I was getting tired of the ice skating rink of the front porch to the driveway below. My lower back is still reminding me about those few close calls.

Drive shafts if factory will be sealed units no grease zerks. I tend to like the slightly tight number tad bit quieter engine and seem like the exhaust brake works just a bit better. Measure at the BATT stud on the alternator and the case or passenger negative terminal. 0.01 to 0.03 AC Volts is normal. 0.05 AC Volts is marginal strange things might start to occur like lock up issues randomly. 0.1 AC Volts is a fail.

$2.279 the last time I got fuel here in Riggins, ID about 4 days ago.

4WD only has 3 zerks. Two upper ball joints and one track bar. You can try my Crankcase Vent Mod. Fairly easy to build and works very well. The only thing I didn't see is valve lash. Take the time check the valve lash. Then take another quick moment and check the alternator for excessive AC noise. I'm like you I want to make it to the moon and back. I've got 257k on the clock now and the Moon is only roughly 238k. So I'm on my way back home now.

Heck I just landed a intake manifold job on a V6 Dodge Truck. Manifold is sucking oil from the cam valley. (Oil in the manifold) and has a good misfire from the vacuum leak too.

Seriously I would go to a local RV dealer and try on a few slide in campers. Floor plan and layout are very important. What good is it to have a slide in camper you do fit or your not comfortable in. Maybe the storage options to don't work for you? At least take the time and look at a dealer first for designs and try them out. Then when your shopping used you can know what works and don't work. Kind of like myself I wondered the dealer lot for over 4-5 hours in NEW RV's before we started looking at USED. Then when I walked in the door I knew right away I found my "Beast" I wanted. Full size queen bed, nice large living area, kitchen you can cook in easy. Plenty of water and holding tank capacity. Just seeing JAG1 setup I was very impressed with his slide in Camper. Lots of water, wet bath (kind of expect that), good amount of holding tank. His was very comfortable. But much larger than a pop up. Look back here...

I've got a wire diagram in the General Cummins section for CCDnetwork. Moved here.
