Hard cold start
You could actually torque the connector tube nuts to 37ft/lbs. If they are not tight, they will cause rail pressure to get past the tube and go to the return.

Hard cold start
They wont hurt anything, I will just have hard starts espcially when it gets cold. Not the hardest, but there is a lot of things to know when you are doing them. Mainly torque values, tips, and tricks. I have done hundreds of them so I have figured all them out with trial and error. Make sure you get bosch remans or if you can afford them, bbi injectors. Do not get reman bosch or anything that is under 340 an injector. They are cheap rebuilds and you will end up paying for them. If you need help finding injectors, let me know.

How to test VP44 overflow valve
When I would get vacuum in the tank it would only hard start after sitting for say 20-30 mins or more. When it would finally start it would dump white smoke. I highly doubt an injector (because they are rare to go out) if leaving the cap loose doesnt fix or help it, I would suspect vp. I have seen multiple pickups with hard starts because of vacuum in the last year. For some reason switching the lift pumps to the wiper fuses fixed the hard starts. Dont know if the pump running all the time overcomes the vacuum or what it does.

Raptors use their own relay triggered by the ecm through the stock lift pump plug

I should of said when he is testing for power is he using the ground at the plug or a body ground. Just to verify the raptor ground is good

Hard cold start
You have too much injector return

Are you using the ground on the raptor plug or a body ground

Battery Maint?
Ya, anything that will drain will shorten time. Even the door being open will drain the capacitors

Jeep in 'on the way'!
I got to play with one of those jeeps pre production at the training center in kansas city. Pretty cool little rigs. Know of a guy that used his to haul hay bales on a trailer with it. Took a couoke transmission out before we could get it through his head that you couldnt use it like a 3/4 ton

Battery Maint?
Actually if you are fast enough there is capacitors that will keep memorys. I actually had my 06 battery disconnected for a week and all my presets were still in the radio. Apps calibration is super simple

No shift, trans tore down 3 times, electrics changed TPS issue
You should have no voltage on signal wire with tps unplugged. If you have 5 volts, it is either grounded to the tps power wire or some other short to sensor voltage (5v). I would ohm between the signal and power wire at the tps connector while unplugged.

Brutus is down :(
Its possible, but its a pain to line back up with manual trans. Its just easier to pull the trans than to fight dropping in the engine and getting the input splines lined up.

cab corner replacement
This was on my 01. It was an omaha pickup so the rockers, cab corner, and rear fenders were rusted and had holes from all the salt Shouldnt have to worry about it on my 06 since they dont use salt out here. But I might line the rockers for chips. Buddy dif it on his 01 and it looks awesome

cab corner replacement
I was going to use a body foam for my rust holes and the spray the rockers with bed liner. Should keep water and air away from the metal which means no rust

Suggestion's for upgrade's for Heavy 5th wheel towing?
mopartechnician replied to GreenRiverCummins's topic in 2nd Generation Dodge Reliability / PerformanceI put a boost elbow on my 02 6-speed and it surprised me on how much that little part woke my pickup up

lift pumps.
Just because its low on pressure doesnt mean its also low on flow
-
scanner...
99% of the time its injectors. Most likely bleeding rail pressure back to the return. Fca very rarely go bad. Also I have never seen a cp3 bad. Injector return test might be needed
-
scanner...
Drb3 is the only other way that I know of. Why are you wanting to watch command?
-
lift pumps.
3rd gens need flow not pressure. If I ever do a pump on mine, I will do a fuelab. They are expensive, but reliable
