  1. I checked it again and it's fine now...don't know what happened lol
  2. I will check the oil level again when I get home this evening.
  3. Well I installed my new BD Diesel Injectors and the truck runs good. Install went well oiled up the o-ring on the injector tubes and injectors every thing snaped into place. But I checked my oil level this morning and it seems that the oil is now over the full mark. Is it possible that the injectors would leak a bit after the install ? Thanks !
  4. New injectors installed and it runs perfectly !
  5. Got the new injectors (BD Diesel 50hp's) installing them this week hope it fixes the problem.
  6. It was about 50 when I took the video so it was not that cold. I went ahead and ordered injectors since there due to be changed anyways. The VP was changed about 4 years ago so I highly doubt that the issue since I always monitored the fuel pressure.
  7. Hi Folks, My truck started smoking blue \ white at startup. I will smoke until I start driving, it drives fine currently it has 240,000 miles still on the stock injectors I get constant 20 psi fuel pressure at idle and between 15 and 18 psi while driving. i think my injectors are done what do you guys think ? Thanks !
  8. I am looking to get a one piece drive shaft for my 01 3500 quad cab is there any shops that sell them online or will I have to get it custom made. Thanks !
  9. Well i found my problem one of the rear brake lines next to the gas tank is ruptured and leaks....could I have caused this during the bleeding process of my PS pump with the hydroboost system and all ?
  10. Well when I first started the truck I could not move the steering at all and I had not brakes at all the brake pedal could not be pushed in. Then I lifted up front up revved the motor a bit and stuff started moving. Now I have steering and brakes... but not allot of brakes it not really safe. But I will work on it tonight I did not spend allot of time on it yesterday.
  11. What puzzles me is that my brakes did not feel soft and worked well before I changed the power steering pump. Could air in the power steering cause this ?
  12. Thanks, what about the brakes ? I read elsewhere on the net that because my (abs and parking brake lights) are on in the dash that I could of damaged my master cylinder since the brake pedal was going down to the floor and it would of pushed parts in the master cylinder further then they would normally go... is that true ?
  13. Hi, I was wondering whats the best way to bleed the power steering system I had to drain it after removing the pump to fix a leaky vacuum pump. I got the truck steering after reving the engine to about 1500 rpm's but the brake are very very soft and the abs and parking lights also came on during the process... Thanks
  14. Hi, does one one know the brand of sun visor installed on these trucks ? Thanks
  15. Got it running it was a bad ground after all. I just added a t-tap wire splice to the ground wire of the left turn signal and grounded that to the body.
  16. Thanks, so for that ground if I take off the front of the dash or bezel I should be able access it ?
  17. Would you happen to have a diagram that shows the location of those grounds ?, I also tired putting the 4 way flashers with the lights on this morning and they all blink very fainthley...
  18. Yes it does blink with the lights off I checked. With the lights on the blinker light turns on but does not blink.
  19. Hi, Well I got my new truck the only problem I encontered after a 1600km drive is that the left turn signal doesn't blink with headlights on... Any ideas ?
  20. Well I found a 2001 Ram 3500 Laramie 5 speed in Ontario, Canada never winter driven !! flying out to go get it Saturday.
  21. For sure will get a FASS DDRP & Isspro gauge if i buy the truck.
  22. Well I am going to go see it I guess, I will bring a hammer and test the floor and stuff I will let you guys know what happens.
  23. The reason I am willing to drive 5 hours to go get it is that 2nd gen 100% stock are very hard to find...
  24. Thanks for the reply, the truck is 100% stock. the lift pump was replaced but I don't believe the injection pump was or the injectors. The dash is good I was only worried about the underside of the truck I have to drive 5 hours to go see it the owner sent me these pictures yesterday he's really open and sent my copies of receipts and all pictures I asked for... I currently have a 1998.5 so I am quite familiar with these truck but for some reason the underside looked bad to me in the pictures.
