What Soldering Station?
http://www.hakko.com/english/products/hakko_fx888d_feature.html#productNav That is very impressive for a soldering station. Wow!

Knocking?
Well the best I can say is hit a shop that can do the work...

Knocking?
We yeah doing a overhaul of a engine on the kitchen table is not exactly my cup of tea either. What stops you from pulling the transmission down and checking the flexplate?

Absent
I know real life grab us and keep most busy then winter time rolls around and everyone gets trapped inside with cold weather. So eventually everyone comes home to the forum.

Knocking?
I've pulled transmission and installed transmission laying in the dirt what wrong with that?

The time has come to produce the Mopar1973Man High Idle & MPG fooler switches again.
The problem is that Cummins originally set up the high idle software for some serious cold temperatures. So normal Joe would have to be in these conditions to get it to start. So with a bit of tinkering I found a way of controlling when and where the high idle software is started. http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/64-mopar1973man-com-high-idle-kit/440-tsb-18-019-01-cold-idle-engine-warming So if you select 6 cylinder it raises the idle RPM to 1,200 RPM and holds till 175*F then cancels. If you select 3 cylinder mode then it cuts 1,2,3 and fires only on 4,5,6 creating virtual loading on the engine and warms up faster. Still the same it ramps up to 1,200 RPM but with 3 dead cylinders. Now toss a exhaust brake on top and enhance the warm up time to less than 10-12 minutes in -25*F temperatures the engine coolant will be 175*F.

Strange ABS issues
No problem. Just confirms your problem wasn't anything more than sensors being bad... Sad to see you bought a ABS computer over it. (Did you?)

What components can a map sensor affect?
The overflow valve...

That's the original price of the previous one. As far as I know the price will remain the same.

What components can a map sensor affect?
None of the above. The ECM has two modes of operation. 100% duty cycle for running engine and 50% duty cycle (modulated) during cranking of the engine. MAP sensor only affect the timing and fuel of the VP44. Doesn't affect the performance of the lift pump. What your seeing is high fuel demands and the fuel pressure falling. So what is happening is the demand volume is higher than the supply volume so the fuel pressure falls. Then is reverse when load is reduced the demand volume reduced and supply volume over whelms the VP44 so the fuel pressure rise and overflow valve opens more.

clutch dont release till on the floor
No. I still got stock hydraulics in my truck with a 13" clutch.

Might have to do the bleed procedure to fix it. http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/28-transmission-systems/54-hydraulic-clutch-master-and-slave-replacement

Strange ABS issues
Rear sensor is still function if the speedometer is dead on with the GPS then I say it working... As CTCummins posted these are the sensors that cam in his unit bearings. But didn't work so I'm going to safely say the sensors are no good.

Gaming...
Ahh... Other steam player out there. Sorry I'm not a first person shooter type but love the strategy of Wakfu. It not only a RPG but really in depth government, economy, and other things. It's more about building and balance than absolute killing.

Toyo Open County dry rot, cracking
China on both trailers zero issues. Even resolving some of that issue with proper inflation math and understand the speed limitations. http://articles.mopar1973man.com/rv-trailers-towables/486-inflating-st-trailer-tires-properly Still to this day I've never experienced a explosive tire blow out.

Nothing wrong with Japan / China made tires. I'm running Black Lions HT's on my truck. http://www.toyo-rubber.co.jp/english/company/enkaku/ http://www.toyo-rubber.co.jp/english/company/data/ http://www.toyo-rubber.co.jp/english/company/oversea_network/

VP died last night
Starter circuit is pretty simple. The starter relay powers the Brown wire going down there so I'm going to say either the relay, fuse, or weak connection.

John I though you had industrial truck tires now?

Gaming...
All work and no play make for a very dull person... I figured I would share what game I'm playing maybe some others would like to join me. http://store.steampowered.com/app/215080/ My character name is Mopar Man (Fitting huh?)

Odd Vibration
I would tend to agree with Bill I would check the wheels for build up first. Then check the balance afterwards. Thing is it takes so little of out of center weight to create a wobble. Especially will large wheels and tires.

Nice. Done way better than I did. I'm not going to bother posting.

I got a few pictures shot too, I'll attempt to upload in the morning.

I just went out to look and can't see it yet. Sure is dark out. I mean DARK OUT!

For those of us who turn wrenches.
I'm going to use that link for awhile fun to post some up on FB...
