I use mine when gets in the mid to low twenties. 30 minutes plugged in will get me to around 60*. That is a plenty for me. Heater will be blowing warm air after 5 to 10 minures of driving. My grids are disconnected and it is much quieter on start up. I have never left it plugged in for any extended period to see how high it will go, but I am thinking in the 80 to 90 degree range depending how cold and windy it may be.

in this case it appears to be the o rings. everything else seems ok. the o rings I used for replacement are 6 pr 7 years old with 100k on them and ben in a zip lock bag for the past 3. Big difference in quality on the o rings but until this the injectors have worked fine. Of course thats about as good as having a great clutch only to have the crappy throw out bearing fail prematurely, still have to pull the tranny for the fix.

I used MAP gas on the 2/0 and lugs. Heats up quick but it will melt the wire insulation if you are not careful.

Over 80k but less than 100k. I know they are getting weak. Elevated idle until I drop below 5mph. Been have some hard start due to loosing prime. Mileage has been pretty normal though with Idleing and with short tripping does not help that. Also much shorter road trips to get a good comparison on highway mileage. That is my constant to keep track of mileage but not 150 miles from home. I have the 01 with the adapter. Has been like that for several years. If you remember I was having this issue a while back in Maryland. Pop a 237 and the SGII would pick up the MAP at 14.6 psi and run defueled until I would massage the wiring harness and it would go away. After finding the 5v splice at the ECM coming apart and soldering it together it stopped. Of course under the conditions I soldered it back together with a Bic lighter. Maybe I knocked it loose but was no where near the splice today.The weird thing was it was the 5v supply to all the other sensors that was cut. There is a separate 5v supply to the MAP and it was intact. They must tie together somewhere in the ECM maybe? maybe something is going on at the big connector on the fire wall. I was up against that alot today. Have to have a look around it at work next week.

Looks like it has already blown the passenger seat.

Might show ignorance here but here goes. Does WTs ground mod apply to 12v trucks??? It would appear if this is stock for a 12v someone else already new this was better.

Well I notice after changing my oil 2 weeks go that I had not had to add any which is unusual since I have a leaky rear main seal. Today I check the oil and sure enough now I have more oil. Took the valve cover off and ran engine. Sure enough there is fuel sitting around no 2 and when shut it off and look back there is nothing there. What ever is there has gone back down the between the injector and the bore and I think I see air bubbles around no 3.. So I restarted the engine and sure enough there is air bubbles and fuel around no 3 and 4. The best I can see no 1, 5, and 6 are fine. I stuck a q tip at the bore of all of them and came back with oil on 1,5,6 and fuel around 2,3,4. since daylight short that is the only 3 I changed along with draining the oil. So the only o rings I have are off a set of rv 275s with 100k on them, nothing else available Sunday evening around here. They have also been sitting in a plastic bag for 3 or more years. I go to pull the injectors and they just lift right out, hardly had to apply any pressure. The o rings on the injectors are somewhat hard and when I took a pic to get them off the broke broke and hardly stretched. The ones on the rv s were stiff but still flexable enough to get off and back on the the other injector and reinstalling the injectors required some force to get them to seat; So for now I think I am ok but hope the other 3 hold until the head comes in a month or so. I will be keeping a close on the oil level looking for some drop. Now for the double whammy. I go for a test drive and have a CEL lit. I have been getting an odd CEL with a 237 code for the past weeks, but the light would go out and everything ran fine. I have planned on going thru the engine harness while the head was off but now on the test I get another CEL and now have a 237 and 238. The scan gauge is not seeing the map and she is defueling as she was a few months ago. Not enough daylight for that one so I will have to do some checking next week. The end of this job cant come soon enough for me,

I guess he dont want to be cold!!

Same thing here. Is there a glitch @Me78569?

Just wanted to be sure we were talking about the same thing. It gets easy to compare apples to oranges sometimes. It is easy for me sometimes not knowing the difference between years and such.

They were talking about a soft transmission line set that used to be available the @Me78569 used to make. The high idle kits are still available.

Is this the basket you were dealing with? This is the intank basket that Dodge installed for me when my oe lift pump died. I was also under the impression that this is what was in the early 3rd gens also. My return and supply are facing the camera and the black on the outside of the basket went to a capped fitting on top and as I remember did nothing. Both my returns now go to the old return and supply straight into the basket and I drilled out a new hole for the pick up. I had a couple after pictures but cant seem to find them.

By all means post it, you never know who might wander thru looking for it.

Mine has been running with the both returns and the pickup in the basket for 8 years with out any problems with air. IIRC the returns are a couple inches above the bottom of the basket or right near the top of the basket. Seems if that was the problem I would have experienced it by now. I cant really disagree with what you are saying, I had a lot second thoughts well after install but it has worked just fine.

@LorenS said he looked at it again it was not plastic. I cant see one in the picture either. Unless I am missing something.

I just googled it and it popped up a lot info, more than I can go thru at the moment. I would not think it would be to difficult to find a FSM on a vehicle that old for free or a small fee.

Mine has the same strap run to the firewall. Pretty sure that is just a ground for the case since the main PCM ground actually attaches to the passenger battery.

I would check apps sensor connector. It is on the bell crank assembly at the front left of cylinder head. The picture is not of the apps sensor. Do you have anyway to check for trouble codes?

I was wondering why my back was sore this mornig.

I missed the part about the Allison, thought he was speaking of a manual.

Good to hear. Looking to finding out what was wrong. I dont understand the hard shifting into OD on a Dodge manual. Neither my 5 or 6 speed is hard to go into OD. Just another gear.

One other thing that bit me was the drain to the hvac box. It comes with a 90* fitting on the fire wall side. When you reinstall the box be sure to put it back on. If its lost put something else on it or when driving the wind will stop the condensation from going out the drain and it will all drain into the cab. Mine was lost and I just put a piece of clear vinyl hose on it. Anything that will point the flow down will work.

I cant see the harm asking. I would with someone asking me. You are giving them an out and they could just ignore you. Pretty harmless in my opinion.

damn good mod.

I dont know. I cant remember back more than 4 posts.
