Headlight switch! That old story!
Here's what I can do to help. At the top of the page is a 'Downloads' tab. In the menu is a download for the 2001 FSM, and 1997 wiring maps and FSM as well. Headlamp switch is in section 8W in the 2001FSM. By comparing the two you should be able to get an idea on what's going on.

Parts (new and used) preferred suppliers
Have you tried Rock Auto? They seem to carry a bit more than NAPA, AZ, etc. There's also a search engine for scrap yard stuff. Carpart.com or something like that. I know @IBMobile has posted it before.

HVAC has always baffled me.........

ATF is about the best carb./ injector cleaner you can buy, and cheapest too. I run some through my old Ferguson every now and again. Skidloader's gonna get a shot too here shortly. Not sure I'd use it in a HPCR diesel though (disclaimer).

My dry sense of humor again. TX is down hill from CO when you look on the map. Interesting geography out there.

Call and talk to him. He can build the VB to have the ability to lock up in all gears. And he likes triple discs but I don't think you just put one in without doing some other things. But please don't run around doing locked shifts all the time, at least not when I'm behind you. My Firestones don't like running over transmission pieces

Turbo upgrades
Stock HX35 will be fine.

Vacation fun
It's always something. I seldom go on vacation anymore. Gotta work like hell for 2 weeks before to get ready and 4 weeks after to make up for the time lost on the regular 'chores'. I wish you well on the return trip. At least it's all down hill from CO. to TX. . Just a thought. White smoke. Are you sure it didn't slip timing? Would be easy enough to check if you have the tools. I'm not much a 12V guy so maybe I'm out in left field.

Upgrades to 2000 2500 for towing
It's been that way everywhere I've been in NJ for as long as I can remember.

I hope it stays on that side of the river. I don't condone excessive smoke but I do have some soot on my mudflap. And who's to say it didn't come from off roading in the pine barrens the night before? NJ was always a little umm, diffferent.........

47RE Upgrades
Depends on your definition of 'hold'. Running around town empty maybe but not towing or playing. At least not with the stock converter. Even with a billet upgrade you'd be on the edge IMHO.

Pepsi, are you talking NJ or PA?

Dead pedal I think
I seem to remember stories of unidentified flying hose clamps in that general vicinity too

Hey you guys I got to get rid of a skunk.....
'They" say if you pick them up by the tail they can't spray you. Trouble is getting to the tail in the first place. 'They' also say if you throw a cover over them they can't spray. I have not tried either. Let me know how you make out. Years ago I had a family of skunks after my chickens (yes @dripley I'm coming out of the closet). I set traps and caught a bunch of them but what an awful stinkin mess (the shunks).Lasted for more like a week or 2. I probably should have just let them kill the chickens instead Just had another thought. Place this picture where the skunks are. Guaranteed they'll get the heck out of Dodge.

It's been a while but from what I remember you are exactly right. You can turn the cap wherever but the wire the rotor points to on TDC needs to be the first one in the firing order.
