We had a winter but nothing like what I've seen in the past. Typically we have 2-3 feet of snow here and I spend nearly every day plowing snow. This year I think I plowed maybe 4-5 times.

Heck last night I woke up at 2am to the sound of rain pouring down on the steel roof. I mean pouring down.

Just take note of it. Might be just a fluke. I won't jump at changing thermostat right away.

You an JAG1 need to get together and chat sometime. Sometimes you need a different point of view to understand what is going wrong.

Strange enough spring start in February which was weird for us. We typically have snow on the ground yet and spitting snow off and through this month. Ummm... No. It would be a extremely cold ride and long walk home. This green??? Wait till April / May and the water is turned on. Then we'll have green grass. This is just half dead lawn from last year.

It was a beautiful morning here so I grabbed the camera a shot a few pictures of the sun rising over the canyon.

The factory amp is mount directly on the front speakers in the doors. There is one amp per side so there is a amp on left that drives all the left side speakers and then there is a amp in the right door for all the right side speakers.

Pull the fuel filter out of the way. Then there is a Allen screw holding the plug into the ECM.

Welcome to the family... First off did you test for excessive AC noise from the alternator? Grab a digital volt meter and test right at the alternator BATT terminal it should measure less than 0.1 AC volts. Second did you do the diagnostics for the error code? http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/59-obdii-error-codes/151-p0122-apps-sensor-signal-voltage-too-low

Time to collect warranty on the ABS computer and then check for alternator noise which should be below 0.1 AC Volts.

Most likely from the top. You'll have to pull the stock fuel filter out completely and then your looking right at it.

Vise grip would be in the way of valve retainers that you have to remove.

Fixed for you...

Even if I follow his example... https://www.autorepairhelp.us/ But then certain amount of the members would most likely bail out to degree.

Polishing aluminium is labor intensive. Back in the day I use to be a polisher of my Honda's. Today it really doesn't matter. I got to admit it does look really good...

I'm all bumper pull trailers and hasn't change tire wear for me at all either way. Loading the truck bed or loading the trailer. But so far the soft tire pressure tend to add to the traction level a bit more giving less slip on steep dirt road grades.

We just bought a vacuum pump kit for $14 from Rock Mountain Cummins in Boise, ID.

I'm going to try and get some envelopes tomorrow. I had a very busy day at work and didn't get a chance to get them.

ECM (Engine Control Module) is on the driver side of the engine block just behind the fuel filter. This controls solely the engine. PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is on the passenger side firewall with the 3 plugs. This controls the transmission, cruise control and voltage regulator. This is why I never suggest tapping the wire in that manner. I would rather use a stealth plate instead which give a good wire tap but water tight.

Not to hijack.. But NAPA prices fund there race car in NASCAR from what I know. Check out a VP44...

No need for the bbcode tags the site software is intelligent to see the link is youtube typically and automatically embed the video for you. It should look like this below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuEnZskaXg8 Fairly simple process...

The only thing I can think of is one brush isn't making proper contact so 2 of the 4 bushes are working so only half the motor is pulling so it requires more amperage to turn the engine over.

Another thought. If I was to hit the donation amount each month. That's $4,800 for the year. Then deduct the expenses of $2,500 (projected). That's $2300 profit for the year, or $191 a month, $6.38 per day. That's not much really. I make better money working with Lindy as Diesel Mechanic at $20 a hour. I'm still giving more than I'm getting. I still lay in bed at night with my laptop and still working HTML and PHP code every night. I'm still doing my coding and web site administration for nothing. When you look at the national average for web site admin at $70k a year. I know this little site could never create that kind of income but geez... $6.38 per day I know 99.9% of the people get paid better at there jobs. To hit that mark I would be $5,833 a month. The donations are at $400 a month now...

Using information from last year and adjusting for this years cost I'm figure on total operation cost of about $2,500 roughly as it stands right now. Which will most likely change because I've got to build the store up for security and SSL Certificates are very expensive. Like the first thing to sell out of the store is going to be these badges. Give me a bit of time I've got a few things to set up and get my shipping straighten out a bit before I place them.

I might try that tomorrow when I roll into work. I'll grab the heat gun.
