  1. Did you assemble it the proper order? Lot of people get too quick to torque the injector down before allowing the crossover tube to be seated properly. It might be weeping pressure inside the return rail where you can't see.
  2. Call Eric directly and ask him.
  3. All I can say is the Smarty I got from Bob Wagner was back in 2006 when I borrowed it. It was great on the low end but got very flat on the upper end with or without my Edge Comp. Then I remember all the dyno runs and people stacking Smarty with other modules and always complaining about Smarty being flat on top. So the only thing I can say is something has changed. I'm not sure what but its change in the software. I really wish that Smarty UDC would happen for the 24V's then I would be all over it. Because then I could build a good base software for the Edge Comp to ride on.
  4. Heck by this coming weekend we should be in the 55-60*F temperatures. I'm gearing up to have the RV ready by this weekend and "hopefully" be able to take off for a weekend.
  5. Diagnostic... http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/64-mopar1973man-com-high-idle-kit/53-high-idle-mod-diagnostic
  6. You can't have mine... Talk to Eric at Vulcan Performance! Comes with o-rings!
  7. Toss them on the classified ads. I'm sure they will go quick.
  8. Heck that picture I would lay in my chair watching TV and every time I seen the battery volts dip below 13 I could tell the shadow was being cast on the panels so I would just pick them up and place them back in the sun. Nothing hard or crazy.
  9. Ummm... I haven't been fishing since 2004 don't have time for it. Heck this is the first ride on the ATV outside the yard in over a year. I don't have time usually. Make you think more the oil change light on the ATV automatic comes on every 600 miles. It's been over 2 years since I last seen the light.
  10. Impressive little camera. I can see how a camera like that would help in insurance claims for you in a large city. Me personally the only thing you see is lots of highway and no action.
  11. I tend to agree but that gives the USFS a reason to use the "Smoke Jumpers" which cost big money. I personally think is a lame idea being they are jumping in with limited supplies. Wilderness Area is the Land of No Use.
  12. I found that proper tire pressure makes a difference in steering. Like I've been calculating by weight. Now knocking -5 from my calculated pressures made it bit more stable tracking. Some others like the heavy camber IIRC. Some truly have broken or wore out steering parts.
  13. Check your voltage supplying the pump make sure its stable. Then check the pressure regulator make sure its not hanging up or the check ball jamming into the spring. (If that what you got).
  14. Problem is I park the RV in the shade to promote cooler interior temperatures. Then I place the solar panels out in the sun to charge the batteries. That way I can have a cooler living space and power to enjoy nice things. But if the panels on the roof then, the RV is roasting hot and you've got power but too bad it's only 90-100*F inside the RV and no Air Conditioning. Yes I've seen that happen with my RV after travelling most of the day in the sun the living quarters is 90-100*F inside. Not a good example but you get the idea. My panels are small enough to fit under the bed.
  15. [sharedmedia=garage:vehicles:4] It's one of my mods on my RV it works awesome. I've been known to watch TV and still maintain the battery voltage.
  16. Fuse should be in the dash. Fuse #5 is for the cluster lighting.
  17. What was totally disappointing about the ride was expecting to ride up a mountain to get away from people and find out that people are buying land farther and farther back in the woods. Then to find out of course USFS is no longer going to to maintain the roads beyond them. So the road that I remember back in the 90's you could drive a full size Dodge pickup to the top of the mountain. Now the road is so bad that you can barely ride a ATV up to the top. Huge ruts in the roads, rocks and wood debris everywhere. I use to years ago go firewood cutting up there now you couldn't even drive a truck in this area. Truly sad. Kind of like another road locally is the same way is Hazard Creek Road. I use to drive my pickup to the end of road and pull massive Red Firs out and truck out of there loaded. Now you can barely ride a ATV back in there. Kind of waiting for something to happen where the USFS gets bit in the tail for letting the roads go like this.
  18. More than likely you got a loose connection that is shorting out blowing the fuse. Check your dash fuse again.
  19. Too many people jump right in and get "Big" everything. Big Turbo, Big Injectors, Big Exhaust, etc. Diesels are just like gasoline engines. You can take a stock V8 engine with a 2 barrel carburetor and then drop a 1050 CFM 4 barrel on and expect it to work. Same with diesel you can't just go out and drop a large injectors in these expect good out come. I alway suggest a fueling module first because this gives you a fuel management for the future. So now as you desire larger injectors you have means of controlling fuel and smoke for the future. But always there will be a point where you fuel demands will require more turbo. But at that point you'll be looking into doing studs, fire ring, o-ring the head, etc. Because are you demands go up the more you have to fix the weak links. The other thing about this is as you slowly modify you can see your efficiencies of your tuning and follow that path then. But if you jump and go Big everything you most likely fight to get the efficiency back up from a low point. Rather common. Oh Yeah... Smoke is not a sign of power its a huge sign of inefficiency!
  20. Smarty handle the timing nd TST handles the fuel.
  21. I would add a module to the truck for now. That will wake it up for 120 HP worth in either Edge juice or Edge Comp, Quadzilla, TST, etc. That will give you fuel management and boost fooling in one shot. After that you can start stepping up through the injector sizes to what you want for total power.
  22. [sharedmedia=garage:vehicles:2] All listed in my garage.
  23. 3" exhaust will handle about 400 HP without much problem. 4" exhaust will do every thing above that point. 5" exhaust is for big boys playing at nearly 1000 HP.
  24. I would hold on to the HX35W turbo. I'm running +50 HP injectors plus the +120 HP of the Edge Comp. But your going to need a module of some sort. You need it to do the boost fooling. Even if you did a Edge Comp / Edge Juice and used level 4 (+100 HP) and +75 HP injectors you still be fine. Rule of thumb... For every 1 pound of boost you making roughly 10 HP. Or the other way around for every 10 HP you want to build you need 1 PSI of boost.
  25. On a HX35W turbo you just find the brass elbow and unhook the rubber hose and remove the OE brass elbow and install the new adjustable elbow. Can't miss the rubber hose going to the wastegate motor. On a HY35W turbo there is a solid steel tube on the wastegate. There is no way to install a boost elbow on those turbos. So that's why I mention the J hook. HX35W on the left and HY35W on the right.
