I think part of my cause of short valve seal life is the amount of exhaust brake usage I have. Placing a lot of pressure on the exhaust valves stems. I'm going to gamble mine are going to be the exhaust side more so.

It might do that but it might have the speedometer way off or it might be close. You can flash the ABS module with a frequency offset for correction of tire sizes. So lots of oversize tire uses typically do this to get the speedometer corrected. Not knowing what was done to the module or what size tires where on the vehicle its a guessing game.

Here is my other project... Posted from Azpen tablet Android Edit from desktop: Seems that mobile device work really well so far at least Android side. I prompted for the picture and it started my camera app for me. Works good under the Linux realm... Now for the Apple folks to speak up.

Dump your cache and cookies and start over. It will show right till I tweak something else. Sorry Dave the M's are going be low priority right now attempting to nail down bigger bugs.

Speed sensor calibration for the speedometer. Which can be reflashed.

That cool to hear of old history on vehicles and where we came from in technology. Cable brakes? Wow! Now look at today with computerized ABS brakes.

I kind of read through it bits and pieces. Really kind of neat to see where we came from with vehicles. Kind of like the old Dodge Brothers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq2jY1trxqg

Like even my factory injectors are 7 hole. My +50HP are also 7 hole. I'm curious of the 8 hole and who is producing them... I've never heard of a 8 hole before.

Not enough coolant temp maybe?

Just remember that a cracked piston / ring can pass a blow by test.

As for the other Job I've already gone down to Boise, ID and trailered the other truck back to the owners house in New Meadows. Now he's suppose to deliver the truck tomorrow morning here at the house. I get to build him a business quality rig. Lets say the current status of the truck it does start and idle but it will not drive. Just getting the truck loaded on the trailer it died 3 times and barely had the juice to move. Pretty sad really. As for the forum I'm going to keep plugging at the forum to get it tuned in and working good.

Very very raw yet. Just basically out of the box and not tuned at all. That part will take me weeks if not months to finalize. My job now starts and will continue for I bet at least one month.

Actually I'm cheating. File backups are done on server and stored there is well. Then download a copy back here in my free time. As for database I'm using MySQL commands directly on the terminal and then dropping a second copy into a second MySQL database. Then if any problems occur I can just change database names and be back online in seconds. Database is only about 320 MB to download. The files on the other had there is close to 7GB on the site. During all this I got to update the Apache server, possibly update the PHP software, possibly update the MySQL software, etc. We are behind a bit... Some of the reasons for this update in software is a greater demand of mobile users coming to the site. The new software uses the same skin for desktop, tablet, and mobile in one shot. All the functions desktop users have a mobile / smart phone user will have now. The new software meets all current Internet standard like HTML5, CSS3, Schema, etc. Also complies with newer search engine requirements. I might actually get this started today since I talked to the truck owner and he's towing it home for me. Perfect... So after I get the morning fog out of my head with a few cups of coffee I'll get busy.

Just got done do that last year for the 96 Dodge. I got tried of the slow engage and disengagements. Found out the vacuum unit had been struck and bent slightly.

Yeah! Good old Google to the rescue... https://www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Dodge/Ram+Pickup/2002/HM42190.html?vehicleid=20021229733

Well I now know what happened. It did blow two 40 Amp fuses now. Something went wrong in the truck side of the trailer socket and it melted together. I ended up finishing off my broken trailer socket and got it unplugged from the truck at least to unhitch the trailer. I'll most likely end up using a hacksaw and cutting the plug away from my trailer plug. Next step. Does any know if Dodge still sells those trailer plugs? Do I have to hack up my wiring? (Really don't wanna... )

Thanks but in the same token I don't want the double fall out of the start of selling the high idle kits and the update together. I'm going to attempt to get it rolling soon.

Thank you very much!!!

Could someone look up the fuse location for me. I need to know where the fuse is for the trailer running lights. I've still got taillights on the truck and all work fine. No running lights on the trailer. I've got turn and brakes on the trailer. I'm in the field and don't have my books with me.

Sorry gang... I hate delaying the site update but... I've got called out to look at a job last night. After meeting with the owner of the truck and doing some basic diagnostic I had to condemn a CR engine Cummins. For sure got piston damage in one hole. You can hear the loss of compression during cranking. Needless to say after talking awhile I found out he's got 4 trucks in his fleet and looking for a diesel mechanic. He's been hunting around the valley for diesel mechanics and my name was brought up more than once. So I ended up with the job. So I've now got a CR engine to pull out and replace. I've also got a 12V 1995 Dodge to go straighten out after a hotrod shop made a mess out of it in Boise, ID. Then there is 2 other he mention but we agreed that the 95 would be easy to straighten out. So last night I was suppose to pull down the site and do back ups but I was tired after coming in late last night. So like the notice says it will occur at a drop of the hat. When I get time again I'll shut down the forum and get the backups done and them get the upgrade process going. Since I've got a contract with the software provider and maintenance fees are paid up I might as well let them do the conversion to the new software.

We are working on rules changes as we speak. BoD are discussing this issue. Chances coming soon.

Then you have just Rear ABS most likely.

Some where rear ABS only. But if you got the ABs pump and module under the hood then you should have them. As for the posting pictures... http://articles.mopar1973man.com/mopar1973man-com-site-information/478-adding-an-image-to-a-post-on-mopar1973man-com

Still not a good idea. Just because a lot of people steal things doesn't make it right to steal too. Same here just because a lot of people run excessive pressure doesn't make it right either. 21 PSI isn't really bad but 30 PSI is a sign of crappy fuel system and crappy pump.
