No matter how long you have a dog it is never long enough. RIP

You going to make an article installing them or is there one already? Are these for over 500 hp or a good safeguard for anything over stock?

Can you apply something to keep dust down?

I'll do a sump again when I can control road debris on the roads. Couple bulk head fittings drilled into top of module and push on fittings for me. PVC pipe from ace hardware to suck from and airtight line so air doesn't get inside fuel line or fuel out. And some holes drilled around lower part of module. Harbor freight step drill, 2, 6 and 10 o'clock position. (I dont know about valve you post about. I'm airdog df 100 and carter pump as backup, under back seat. JIC fittings at pump, with shut off valves so easy change out if ever needed) Lots of ways to do it and several pics on here, somewhere. Good luck.

If hard to determine if leak or not you could get a piece of paper and put a drop of food coloring on it. And see if coloring runs because it gets wet after some time. Maybe 2 days When messing with my cab, lots of ways for moisture to get in. Including vents on sliding back window. Air getting pushed around with fan and dehumidifier, you'll get it out, but takes more time than you would think. Especially in insulation.

It might...water seeks it's own level. Finding and drying out sometimes not easy as it sounds. Trapped water in carpet padding or wherever takes time depending on how much. Dehumidifier and a fan helps alot. I have couple of these that I use in rv's and few other places. I look up my humidity level at my local airport and compare to my gauge, after gauge has been in 4 hours or more. When numbers get close (within 5) of each other, rv or car or whatever is as dry possible. Wifes sunroof leaked and took quite a while to get dried out. https://www.amazon.com/Xikar-832XI-Round-Digital-Hygrometer/dp/B004167OY4/ref=asc_df_B004167OY4/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198061059251&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15982910390463949716&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9053013&hvtargid=pla-373712639447&psc=1 Humidity is interesting... right now my closet airport is 67% and inside my house is 51%.

I don't know if this tsb helps or not. http://dodgeram.info/tsb/1997/19-10-97.htm See note...even though a 97 tsb, covers thru 2001.

Seems to be common practice in part business not just dealers. Example is my small plastic connection on fuel module broke. Called Vulcan to get part number because he is 2 days away by mail. He uses different part numbers but I knew it was a doorman part but i couldnt think of right name in order to look up in doorman. My local NAPA if I dont have part number they won't look up if price of item is low priced, just not worth their time I guess. My kid use to work for a 5 star dealer. When my own lift pump went out he sent me one. I told him I'm going to a fass system. He never even heard of them. After looking them up, he approached his boss about them. His boss told him...if not OEM dont bring it into his dealership. My truck was at dodge dealer twice since 2005 and both times dealer either was backed up or couldn't or wouldn't to the work. I dont care for being under the hood but have to get stuff fixed somehow. Ironically my kid now has newer duramax, so I have to keep this thing going and not get newer one. He keeps telling me how good they are and I dont trust gm at all. So my truck has to outlast him, and he has 18 year head start. We'll see. And my son in law that doesn't know how to check the oil got a new Chevy because he likes the back up camera. Then concerned how much into retirement account. Gee, what about the 5 grand you just paid in sales tax. Oh I forgot about that... (slap forehead)

Trouble shooting checklist http://www.pureflowairdog.com/troubleshooting.php

Thanks... called closest dealer which is in Renton. No luck. Doormans list them online but went to couple auto stores. They can't order. "Not in stock and can't order" Put the cowl and nozzles back on without mounting, just laid it up there and after clr and 22 gauge wire and it worked great. New wipers and now waiting for rain? And added nozzles to list of things for the next time I run across a junker. If anybody does same job, be very careful of plastic hose connections under cowl, nothing more than plastic "y" fitting that connect rubber hoses. Also used wet/dry vac to vacuum out fluid tank. Vac hose to big for tank opening... made adapter to get 1/2 inch vinyl hose down inside tank and washed out couple times. Did it that way because posters said pulling tank is hassle and might break. Anyway Worked great. Now on to JB weld on front grille. Then fuel gauge Thanks for posting.

?Were did you buy that thing you have that you always seem to break down at home?

d peckers I think they like to peck on loud items to attract a mate. The louder the more attraction I'm guessing Claiming territory for their own ?? unless you got insects in your ladder. Airdog pumps... I could tell one pump from another. Other than the Have no idea if Raptors are different. CATCH THE PUN...Raptors such as eagles and hawks are in different family than woodpeckers??.

Thanks. But don't have raptor. I have df100 or df 95? Very good point though, many times the poster assumes the readers know what type of airdog is installed and there are many different types. Could make a difference in answers. (?? Like I assume your woodpeckers are "downey" woodpeckers. Only thing mine mess with is chimney cap)

Where is a good location to install the elec connection for air dog? In pic... mine is secured by a zip tie and tucked under weatherstriping that goes across the cowl. And not weather tight connection. Certainly must be better spot. Also,is one battery better than other for connection? Thanks

Thank you

To clarify... "cowl to glass now not on my truck" There was at one time but NOW not on my truck? So the only weatherstriping you have is edge of cowl and hangs over the edge of cowl which is under hood to protect wires. Like in pic. And there is no weatherstriping bewteen glass and cowl (where windshield meets cowl.

Parts came in today. I might be victim of terminology bewteen OEM manual and LMC truck. Do you folks have one weatherstrip piece that goes across metal lip and plastic cowling and another weatherstrip piece that goes bewteen glass windshield and plastic cowling?

We ran across a group in Canon beach that were out on an outing,, they restored older ones. Tried to find them on line but couldn't, but did run across page I linked to... Good luck.

I think some parts are valuble. Probably like us looking for parts, don't need them till you do. I would contact these folks. https://witclub.com/clubs_and_chapters/or/

Didnt think about those. Only thing I could think was to pull apart a short piece of 16 or 18 gauge wire and then use a strand of it. At first I was afraid to soak it in clr. Thinking maybe i would melt the plastic nozzle. Of course wife pointed out that we bought it in a plastic container. Hate when she does that to me.?

Yes, CLR soaked couple hours. Didnt think of running a wire thru it though. Also going to clean out and rinse fluid reservoir. Made attachment today to get to bottom of tank with vinyl tube rigged up to wet vac. Opening on top to small for my wet vac hose, and crazy tank opening is off set from deepest part of tank, where if any junk would be. Vacuuming out tank safer think than removing it to clean I think.

Let me "bank" that beer. What this site is all about in my opinion. I'm in Seattle, sure would of been great if I could of just called someone in your area, when I was trying to get back from Yuma with a leaky sump with diapers wrapped around tank with bailing wire. Our overnight spot is Woodland or woodlawn, just north of Sacramento. Would of been great for someone local to direct me to good mechanic close to them.

Sort of... Manual says to apply compressed air backwards, to remove crap, which I've done. I've still got the entire cowling off awaiting parts from LMC. LMC discontinued washer nozzles. Trying to get one because mine pisses sideways and i won't know if nozzle shoots right till I get it back cowl reinstalled. . So trying to get one before LMC parts come in. Dormans supposedly has a replacement. I find the part book very handy, put in part number from book into google and usually stuff turns up. Part book also handy if your looking for something in earlier year model. Such as I had to find a fuel tank. Turns out 98 and backwards to I think 95 will work, but threads are different on the cap. Vented or non -vented cap of I recall right. By the way never finished that project, little gas pump icon shows up in dash. So for now I just figure out miles instead of fuel gauge. Anyways part book is very friendly. Wish I could copy and paste with it though. Formatting doesn't transfer right, maybe jusy my great computer skills?

I get 6 1/4 (longer than my calipers) does not include head of bolt or built in washer head thing. Just the part that goes inside.
