Oh ok we’re thinkingnof two different things. That is a possibility.

It’s hard to say but usual when hot. I inspected all the crossover tubes well before I put them in.

The injectors only had 2 hrs of runtime when I installed them. The po used them to break in his rebuild. The dap injectors ran funny to. Both sets have a intermittent misfire at random that won’t go away except on its own. Seems as if the injectors could probably be ruled out. I’m thinking maybe vp.

No

Like 1/8 of an inch

Mile I am plumbed exactly the way you are. Mark didn’t say what he thought it was.

That’s correct. It is hard to believe but at our shop my boss claims that 8/10 fads systems he has done make more air in fuel than it can remove because of so much fuel returning that the truck can’t use. I may hook up a different pump or some clear line to see if it really is that though I doubt it... I don’t recall using any thread seal. Maybe I should just redo my fuel system and go thru all the lines and fittings and double check everything?

Sorry fellas been busy and injured all at once. Sprained my foot and can’t even drive the 24 valve right now cause using the clutch really hurts. I asked Mark at dieseltuff.com about my issues and he said 99% of the time the cause of trucks not running or sounding like a 24 valve shouldnis not related to injectors at all. I think I need to ensure they’re is no air intrusion somewhere first and go from they’re. What do you suggest I try after that? Video don’t really do justice to showing y’all the difference in sound between trucks or I would post up a video. Thanks

Yep I did all new washers and o rings. Sometimes it runs good but other times it will literally start knocking. WhT causes a fuel knock normally? I never had this with my old dap injectors so it’s got to be something with my install.

No problem friend. Just getting time time to post back. Everything is in the affirmative that you asked. They are brand new except they have 2 hrs run time in them from a fellow member using them only to break in a new motor.

Everyone says they’re had to be a companion code but they’re is none when scanning with my OBDLink. I installed new stock injectors but my truck still doesn’t run like other 24 valves. Other ones idle smoother and the engine sounds different. I’m really bewildered and I want my truck to run like a true 24 valve should. Valves have been adjusted as well. Where should I go next?

Sweet. Or you could do a hybrid turbo. That’s what the site owner has sounds like a nice upgrade. I want to do a he351cw sometime.

@Mopar1973Man where did you get the headlights for your 1996 ram 1500?

You should upgrade to an hx35. I think it would be worth your while. I don’t know much about the upgrade but I hear for auto trucks it’s a nice upgrade.

If I was keeping the truck in the long run I would go for those but I foresee a p pump truck soon.

Great job covering that with caulk but I’m not a band aid fix type of person I want a set that genuinely fits perfect. Lol

I installed my new stick injectors Saturday and truck ran sweet until this morning it developed a knock. Any guesses? I have fuel leak somewhere I have to chase today but I don’t think it’s a high pressure leak cause I can’t see it on the lines and it’s coming from the back. That is what my truck sounded like and I hated it. Sounds awe full.

I spoke with 1a and I’m planning to return them. I don’t like that gap.

I honestly like the look of the oem lights. And with my light bar and fogs wired into the highs I have enough light output to keep me happy. Where did you get those?

The old lights fit perfect so I’m guessing it’s just bad fitment on the lights. Hopefully I can return them and get some different ones.

I bought a stock set of lights for the truck from 1a auto and they fit good except where they meet the grille. Is they’re an adjustment or are these just crappy fitting lights? One photo is the old light and the other is the new housing.

An when I get home in two weeks.

What do u mean they didn't make a diesel shortbed second gen? They absolutely did.

I really hope this is the issue. And to clarify im not saying the map sensor is cuasing my idle and rough running issues. The map sensor issues are two different things I just put them both in one thread. Are map sensors from Napa ok qaulity or not? Like I said I have been thru three of them lately. Not sure if they're is a deeper issue...?

That is the current plan. Really hope it helps.
