2 cyc oil
I had a FASS DDRP 02 Lift Pump installed or at least I think that is what it is. I'm a non-motor head old fart. I had a Dodge Diesel Mech install it for me 2 years ago. No problems yet. I'm in Santa Fe, TX, so how is the best way to go about getting a Fleet Guard and or Baldwin filter? Can I special order thru Auto Zopne maybe? Thanks for your response.

2 cyc oil
Have followed the forum concerning using 2 cyc oil. Have about made up my mind to start using it. I have a FASS Lift Pump with a 3/8 in inline filter and the OME filter upfront. I'm using a Quest filter upfront. I have recently used Lucas as an additive but it should be cleared out by now. I'm currently in Texas and will be retuning to SC after the 4th of July. Does anyone see any problem with starting using it now? I have 6k miles since I changed the upfront filter. Mohok

Ac work
Hey guys, from a non motor head prospective, has anyone ever tried a $24.00 3 oz can of A/C Super Seal from Wal-Mart? Have had retailers tell me that if the system is not leaking down within 2 weeks the stuff will work. Mohok

Headlamp Assembly removal
Will someone please explain the best way to do this. I just received both left and right complete assemblies ($113.53 to my door cost from EBAY). When I tried to remove the old ones I ran into a problem. Looks like I have to remove the top cap on the front bumper, yes/no?ThanksHNK

Scan Guage II
Installed Scan Gauge II and ran the setup. It gives me a 7.5 to 8.0 MPG while towing. My actual MPG was 10.2. Any ideas on what to do? Also, when towing my T/T (8800 lbs) into a slight headwind, I can barely maintain 60 MPH with the pedal on the floor. Is this normal? See signature for vehicle specs.ThanksMOHOK

Just installed my Scan Gauge and have set the A-17. Your post is telling me to set A-24 instead, right?ThanksMohok

Fuel Pressure Gauge
Will mount it on the steering column with a mount from Geno's Website. Mechanical, not sure if all the required parts come with that price, it might just be the gauge.I have a Cummins MotorHead near by that will do the install. ThanksMohok

Fuel Pressure Gauge
Old Fart Non-MotorHead here again. Am looking at a Stewart Warner 0-30 PSI 2" Fuel Pressure Guage for $55.00 Am not a performance nut just want to monitor my F/P while towing 8K. Will this fill the bill? Mohok

Fuel Pressure Gauge
Thanks Moparman. I found the port on the side of the engine forward of the filter housing. I got 18PSI @ idle so I'm guessing my FASS is doing its job. I will go the mechanical route for the gauge. Are they hard to install? Will get a single column mount from Geno's.Thanks Mohok

Fuel Pressure Gauge
Hooked up the pressure gauge and got a 18PSI at idle so I guess my FASS is doing it's job.

Fuel Pressure Gauge
3 Questions: 1. I looked at the Pricol Optix 2" Fuel Pressure Gauge (Elec) 0.30 PSI (BLK) on Geno's Website. Is this what I need to safely monitor my fuel pressure? 2. Is there a less expensive gauge that would serve the purpose? 3. I have a test gauge that came with the installation of my Banks P/P. Where do I find the fitting to connect it to check my pressure? ThanksOld Fart Non-MotorHead

Towing Question
Thanks. I have had my Lift Pump changed out with a FASS, at least I think it is a FASS. With the Banks Power Pack I should have the HP to pull the extra pounds. I will pursue a FP Guage and TC/VB Transmission upgrade. I have a local MotorHead that I trust to do me right. Thanks again.

What do I need to do, if anything? I have Boost, EGT, and Tranny Gauges. I have a Banks P/P and a S&B Cold Air Intake. :confused

Tire Sizes
My primary concern in switching to the 235/85 vice the 265/75 is saferty. I understand that I will lose 33mm/1 1/2 " of surfacecontact. I tow my 8K Pull Behind Travel Trailer 3/5K miles annually primarily on Interstates. Also, I can bring 4 Yokohama 285's for less than $500 and it would cost me $900 plus to replace with 265 Michelan's. ThanksMohok

Tire Sizes
Currently running LT265/75/16E Mich M/S. Dodge recommended LT245/75/16E. Poor fuel mileage towing 8000lb Tag Along Travel Trailer. How much in safety am I giving up if I go to LT235/85/16E A/T in hopes of improving fuel MPHs? 2001 Ram 2500HD Diesel 4sp A/T. Have done the Banks Power Pack deal and A/B Cold Air Filter with no increase in MPHs.
