Yes, upload a tune, wait 1 minute, and start the truck, turn the truck off, load the stock tune back, wait another minute, and its done.

If the feature is enabled, the only parameters that have to be met in order to turn the high idle off is hit the brake, be moving faster than 1 mph, putting the vehicle in any other gear besides park(hit the brake pedal). There is no waiting to move, turn the truck off, anything. When the SMARTY tune is uploaded and then the ECM is returned to stock, the high idle/3 cylinder idle is left behind.

There is no drawbacks to this that I know of, and you will not have any control over the idle features because the ECM controls this.

DieselD24, I will be in Denver on Friday, not sure what time, I will have my SMARTY with me. I have to do something at The Childrens Hospital. We can throw a tune on yours and then return it to stock so that you have the high idle feature and 3 cylinder idle. 719-six8o-o171 Stodg73

That block is now $585.

I found this 55 block on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-Dodge-Cummins-Turbo-diesel-ENGINE-BLOCK-casting-55-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem53e44129e6QQitemZ360311761382QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

If you have a SMARTY, you can recalibrate the speedometer. However, if you use anothers to load in the calibration and then take the SMARTY off, you will loose the calibration.

Yes, GlowShift are decent gauges. I have had mine for the past year, and so far no problems. They come with everything you need for the gauge. The main problem is that you have to extend the wiring on them.

Found some for you: http://cosprings.craigslist.org/pts/2167065191.html http://cosprings.craigslist.org/pts/2152396895.html http://cosprings.craigslist.org/pts/2149133751.html http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/2163191709.html http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/2132076111.html http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/2114121921.html Most of these are near me where I can get them quick. I also realize that some are '93 models.

What he is talking about is the speedometer gear in the transmission. On certain older models, in order to change the speedometer to the correct speed, they would just change out this gear. On our trucks, this is done by recalibrating the speedometer through an update to the computer, either a dealer or if you have a SMARTY, you can do this. There are some aftermarket boxes that you can put on your truck to get the correct readings. I have oversize tires and I just use a GPS for the correct speed.

I have those tires and I run about 70psi in the front and anywhere between 50-80 psi in the back, depending if I have a load/trailer or not.

I added a link for different gauges in the above post. Here is the link again: /threads/3114-Dodge-Gauges">http://forum.mopar1973man.com/threads/3114-Dodge-Gauges There is lots of information in the link.

I used JB weld to glue some magnets to the base of the TomTom. I then glued a piece of thin steel in the bottom pod of my triple pod. Then magnets that I used are neodymium magnets, just don't let them get close to any credit cards or computers, as they are very powerful.

Any news dripley?

I have mine magnetically held to my triple pod gauge mount.

If you can check fuse numbers 2,3,6, & 10. See if these fuses are good. I am looking at my underhood fuse panel for these, '01.5 engine. These fuses are the ones that are 'engine control', 'ign/run'.

Yes, the 0500 is the speed sensor. There are 3 on the truck, both front wheels and on the diff. If you have spun any of the wheels(snow, mud), it will trip the 0500. At least, this is what it did on mine.

I think that your p1693 is being caused by the p0500 code.

Also, the pistons for the H.O. are different shapes than the S.O. due to the different injection pattern.

I know! More MPG & More Power!

P.S. don't let JOHNFAK know this!!!!!!

Am I an enigma because I get 22 mpg @ 75mph? I am running everything in my sig. I am turning about 2100-2200 rpm. When I am loaded with about 10k I get about 15.5+ mpg at 70mph.

I will be working.:hyper::hyper:
