Hard starts and weird tach
Try leaving your fuel fill cap loose and see if the hard starts go away. Ive seen it before and i know its weird

The latest UOA
http://dodgeram.info/tsb/2001/09-004-01.htm And look up tdr oil filter study. Its a good read but would be nice if they did an update with the newer filters and the new internal bypass filters Wix makes napa

Hard starts and weird tach
You can use oil. I was just taught to use grease on all the fuel o-rings. It wont seal any better but I have never messed an o-ring up this way

EGT Question
You can run 1300 all day. I agree a boost elbox would help alot

The latest UOA
I would be looking into fleetguard or donaldson. Tdr did a test and wix was one of the worst filters out there

EGT Question
01's dont have a dpf. Thats a 6.7 thing. Most likely you have a cat and muffler. I would start by getting a 4" mbrp exhaust with muffler. It will help with getting exhaust out quicker. I also agree on the bhaf. What are you hitting for egts?

Hard starts and weird tach
Connector tubr o-rings will only cause hard starts when engine is cold. I also install with bearing grease. You dont want to catch one I would fix your tach issue first. I do believe the rpms is read off of cam and that is also what telks the ecm that the engine is turning over

1996 Dodge Ram 1500 - P1762 & P1764
Get an governor pressure sensor and solenoid feom cascade transmission parts. They are amazing people

diablo power puck
There is so many things it could be fuel issues or air issues would be the first thing to look for. Ecms dont just go bad but everybody wants to blame them first. The puck is pretty much a bunch of resistors that fool the computer to thinking the sensors are reading different.

1999 24v charging issues and more
Bingo. I had one on my 01 that was bad and would draw the other one down. I forgot about that
-
1999 24v charging issues and more
I would be looking to what is drawing your power down. Low batteries cause weird stuff. So, look up how to look for battery draw using a test light. Dont look into it too far until you fix the obvious things first

Found the perfect family car...
Hellcat is the engine name. There is a challenger and charger version with maybe a 1/2 ton pickup also in the future. The funny thing is the charger is faster
-
Found the perfect family car...
Dodge was out first the others copied. Just look at the challenger. Dodge had a functional display at the detroit auto show, chevy had to push theirs on to the stage

What is this noise?
I would change the fca. Your looking too far into it

VP44 help
When it is hot and acting up, run water over vp. If it atarts running, vp computer is bad.
-
VP44 help
Run cold water over computer on vp when its not starting (hot). I cant remember if you can go backwards on a ho to a so pump. I know you can go one way but not the other
-
What is this noise?
Could be clutch cycling. You shouldnt feel the fan cycling. But when a fca acts up, it will be rythmic.
-
What is this noise?
You should only idle your pickup for a couple of minutes. Idleing only uses the injectors more, burns fuel and also allows the cylinder temps to drop so your fuel isnt completly burning. Which cause carbon and can cause injector to stick open (seen it many times). Mine does the same thing, one time it idles rough and the next time it idles fine. Im gonna throw in a fca but I am getting injectors because I have 224,000 on the origional injectors. You also need to build/buy a 3 micron filter setup for it and run a baldwin pf7977 filter in the stock housing
-
What is this noise?
Either fca or injector going bad

Lift pump suggestions
Ive seen the front seals on a cp3 blow fuel out on pickup with an aftermarket fuel pump but cant say what pressure or why it went out
-
Lift pump suggestions
Im pretty sure you want around 6. But ah64id will tell you for sure
-
Lift pump suggestions
So there is a "t" fitting so it can run off of electrical or mechanical? Will they start when the electrical goes bad? Im just trying to figure out how this works for future customer pickups
-
Lift pump suggestions
What happens when the electrical pump goes bad and you cant pull through the pump?
