  1. Hi. Thanks. A video clip of the beep-buzz that coincides with the grid heater indicator on the dash. all the best. Ken
  2. Hello all, Had 98.5 for years but was stolen back in February. I’m now a very lucky owner of a new 2018 2500! Absolutely amazing in all aspects!! Question: when cold starting, (not really cold!) about 7°C, when the grid(s) cycle on and off there is a servo/motor type noise that sounds under the hood with the grids. On and off. There is a little ‘beep’ that is heard as well. Any ideas? Certainly doesn’t sound like it’s a malfunction as it matches the grid dash lights (on and off) exactly. Thanks all!! Ken
  3. Thanks Buzzin. I won't worry about getting another fooler. If it doesn't put my truck into limp mode then I have no problem with clearing a code every now and then... thanks again.
  4. No. Just into the pump harness. I wonder why I'm not getting codes?? thoughts?
  5. Hay all. I've had a Diablo PP, boost elbow and boost fooler for quite some time. Recently the fooler died so I removed it. I still can get boost over 27, yet I don't throw a code? What am I missing? I thought I'd get a code after 22? Or will I have to maintain 22+ for a certain amount of time ?? Thoughts? Thank you.
  6. Oh, and my battery's are old and I don't know HOW old.
  7. Hello Guys,Yesterday on the way to work it was hunting in and out of 4th etc. On the way home all is well. This morning, hunting in and out of 4 so I kicked it out of OD and its hunting in and out 3 and lock or second, who knows. I brought my multimeter this am and tested my AC while it was running before I shut it of. It was at .05. When I tested it yesterday it was at .02 to .04. My Scangauge picked up a 1682 code. (My first one ever)I'm not sure from yesterday or this am. I'm thinking my alternator is just done. Thoughts??
  8. Hay guys, I found this.... http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/dev/12-valve-manual-high-idle-via-cruise-t299965.html? Looks like a high idle kicker for a first gen, possibly work on our 2nd gens? Thanks.
  9. .....and different plugs too! I think?
  10. After sitting/stop and go I got moving again. I think the IAT dropped to 157. Too high?I may have dropped more if I drove further but I'm not 100% on that one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Do ya-all think there is an upper limit for our intake air temperature? Why I ask is since putting on the BHAF I have seen temps in the high 160 sitting in traffic with the A/C on. Just thinking..……Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Thanks everyone for clearing that up!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Ok, now I'm a bit confused. I have an auto and a boost fooler. I made a boost elbow and put it in place of the existing elbow. I turned my set screw almost all the way in and now I can hit 25psi. I was only able to hit 17 without the elbow. I was under the impression that the boost elbow is all I/we needed. It reduces pressure thus preventing the waste gate from opening or opening early. So I'm not sure what the J hook is used for? How is the standard different from the auto turbo? I thought we all had that turbo pressure line going to the waste gate?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. ...just so I understand the exhaust brake working with my auto...The exhaust brake WILL work well if the torque converter locks up (in my case, 3rd and 4th only) but will do little to nothing in 1st or 2nd as my stock trany never goes into lockup in those gears!?Correct ??Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Ah, thanks. I wasn't sure if the 3 cyl was just a fuel thing with the VP or a bit more than that. I can see if you just cut the fuel it wouldn't do much on deceleration. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
