  1. Wow man thanks for all the info!! I bought the truck and it runs pretty well on 7 but I haven't towed anything with it. It feaking goes though!!! And the EGTs haven't been that high really either. Again I haven't really pushed it or anything yet either.
  2. Well right now it has a Smary SO6 with the TNT-R tunes. It moves plenty fast right now, but I haven't drove it enough to tell abuot EGTs really. I don't plan on doing much more with it for a while since it has more power than my old truck easily and I can't afford to spend a fortune on it!! I know it hit 105 mph without much trouble!!
  3. Hey guys! It has been a while since I've been on here but I'm getting ready to buy a 2005 Cummins due to Black Magic getting wrecked about a month ago.. I have been trying to figure out if it will have the HE351 or the HE351VGT?? What are the differences in them?
  4. Nice read man!!! I'm looking into one of these for my next truck since Black Magic got wrecked... Stepping up to a Common Rail!!
  5. Yeah I figure when my girl and I tear it apart I'll play with it and see what I come up with. If it doesn't start working I'll just replace it with a new one.
  6. Thanks guys!! I think that is what I shall order!
  7. Okay so yesterday the fuel gauge was showing a little under half which was correct. I parked the truck for maybe 2 hours and got back in it to drive and fuel now shows it is on Empty and the fuel light is on. Went and put some fuel in it and it didn't change... So I guess the fuel sender is probably out?? Can you buy that seperate from the canister or does it come together? A from a dealer I suppose?
  8. I used the bolts for my heat shield. A double nut helps elimate sharp corners which will wear into the filter. As for the hood question, LMC has some cool ones.
  9. The first problem I've got no ideas but the second sounds like cupping from poor shocks. You probably need to invest in a new set and maybe rotate the tires. My front ones are doing a similar thing and I'm running a heavy mud terrian tire (Fierce Attitude MTs).
  10. Thanks bud, it was easy cheesy!
  11. Got it fixed!! The switch just came apart so I put it back together and with the use of some super glue my gf bought it is working like new again! Thanks for the info guys!!
  12. Okay so my map light on the passenger side has decided to stop working. The light still works but it doesn't click/ spring anymore.. Anyone have an idea of how to access/ fix it?
  13. Some injectors are labeled but I think that is more of a recent deal...
  14. Wouldn't that be more of a lack of a boost fooler?
  15. Thanks for the ideas guys, this will give me some things to check out and see what I come up with!! --- Update to the previous post... Checked the continuity of the solenoid and it is good. Also checked the fuse and it is good. Going to have the starter tested today and see what they say.
  16. Okay so my truck has done this a few times. I hit the key and all I get is a click. Just one "click" and no start. It did it the other day and I was able to get it to jump start it with my girl's car. I tested the batteries and they test out fine. I decided to drop the starter and see if I could tell anything but I don't know really what to look for. I replaced the plunger and contacts a while back (maybe a year) and they don't look bad from what I can tell. What I'm looking for is ideas please!
  17. How about the US gear decelerator?
  18. I do have that valve and all the linkage is still on it. Yeah I'm thinking that might help too. It's been a while since I jacked it up and spun the wheel to see what the drag is like. I might do that tomorrow if I've got the time.
  19. They are drum. I just adjusted the cable some a few minutes ago to help. Doubt it will help a lot in the stopping power part though. I know it's not a sports car but a couple of my buddy's trucks seem to have tighter feeling brakes than mine and I haven't figured out why....
