My suggestion is to call Norcold. 1-800-543-1219 Apparently you need to go through a bunch of "press 1 for service" type prompts, but from what I understand they are quite helpful.

There is a set up for nitrous that is called "Sneaky Pete". It is a small bottle that you can hide even behind a door panel that gets missed by most all tech inspections. I know of someone who had one.......

Yes, the blend door is the one controlled by the knob on the dash. The symptoms are just exactly what you said is going on. Here is a little bit of reading: http://dirtyshirt.info/auto_dodge_blend_door.html

A dirty evaporator will cause the symptoms you are having. The suction line will be cold no matter if the evap is clean or not since the system will cycle on the low pressure switch. Have you by chance checked the blend door on your truck?

My wife and I decided to make a trip to the Black Hills of South Dakota. We were going to leave tomorrow, but a friend and his wife wants to run out there with us so we are going to leave home next Friday. I am looking forward to the trip and I think I am going to take two lane roads for almost the whole trip to see different scenery.

It's not the number of holes, but rather the spray angle. The 12 valve injectors are at an angle to the piston and the 24 valve injector is right above the piston. HOWEVER, no matter how many holes or lack there of, if the injector is not spraying into the bowl in the piston you will melt the piston and probably have an EGT and smoke problem too.

Not sure exactly how old he is, but his parents live in Orwell. I know he had a house in Kansas, but I think he sold it.

My VW mk6 (2012 JSW) is now consistantly seeing 45 to 50 mpg at about 70 mph. My son's mk5 (2006 Jetts sedan) gets about 40 to 45 mpg at the same speeds.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! To hell with the truck, take care of your family first!! I can remember whe my first was born. The nurse that was there put her in my arms and said "Now if she were a walleye, how much do you think she would weigh?". The doctor then took her and weighed her. She was 10 pounds 1 1/2 ounces and the doctor's record at that time! That was 25 1/2 years ago and I can still hear the nurse and doctor! You will remember that day for the rest of your life!

It is a typical Volkswagon TDI MK3. Yes, they can run on Bio, my son runs B-99 in his 2006 Jetta TDI with no issue what so ever. If you want info here is a lot of articles to look at: http://myturbodiesel.com/threads/vw-mk3-how-to-for-jetta-and-passat.128/

I don't quite go along with this. My truck will smoke like a freight train by the time I get to about 4000 feet.......Especially with a boost leak!!

Can't say as I have ever heard injectors getting broke in and flowing more. Sounds more like warmer air being less dense to me. You must have been running on the edge of smoky in the cooler weather and with the warmer weather it went just a bit smokier.

Well, at least now you know! That doesn't look too bad to fix, just a couple of new U-bolts and another top plate.

So, you are saying the rear axle was moving around?

I can't say as I think the NTC400 is that good of a pulluer. I drove two of them and the NTC350 that was pure stock would out pull them. I know the 350 was stock because I unbolted the IP and walked into Cummins and got another, bolted it on and away I went.

Yea, that isn't too terrible far. I am thinking of getting there around the 14th (nice to be retired!) and leaving about two weeks later depending on how things go. I can give you a call when I get there and we can figure out what we will do. I am thinking of going to the Black Hills next week for something to do!

When you do something you do it good!

I just got back from fishing and we only kept three small mouth bass and all three STILL had eggs in them! This is one screwy year here. The Lilacs are just now blooming.

Most of the time, yes the crack is visible. However, if you just glance at the fuse you would probably miss the crack. Glass fuses are really bad at cracking from age.

Be glad you don't live in Pennsylvania, Mike. There are towns called Hooker, Desire, Intercourse, and Blue Ball. Yes, those are real names, you can look them up.

That one will probably go for about $10k! Those trucks are expensive!

Been there and on my way back!

Far as I know there are not any readily available 6 or 7 hole injectors without them being custom made. HOWEVER, I did find a set of 10 hole injectors but they are for extreme racing or pulling only.

I can't afford to go through there pulling my trailer. The Indiana and Ohio toll roads are way too expensive. I go through the U.P. and across the Mackinac Bridge and only run a little bit of the Ohio Turnpike. It may be about 100 miles farther, but it costs me less money.

Be glad you don't have the same steering set up as I do. In order to change the steering wheel position I need to tighten one tie rod and lengthen the other. It is still esay to do, but more of a pain.
