  2. ok ladies and gentlemen,this is why i think the MPG/High idle thingy may be something i should install.i only drive about 5 miles to work each dayand by the time i reach my destination ,my temp gauge is almost at normal operating temperaturewould enabling the 3 cylinder idle get me up to normal temp so that the engine is toasty when i start my drive be benificial?or am i (as usual) wrong in my thinking?thank you for your input.

    +100% for me it is VERY intimidating. i have nothing useful to add to any of these posts but i did want to say it is dumbfounding the amount of brainpower ,skill,and expertise that goes on at this website. and i thank you all. ok back to my lurking until i learn enough to ask an intelligent question.
  8. please forgive my ignorance but if the reading falls under 15 psi are you supposed to shut the truck off that second and call a buddy and/or a wrecker. then tow it somewhere to replace that pump, then continue on your way?
