Buy one, Rock Auto, $12.71, done.

Both the odometer and the trip odometer information is stored in the instrument cluster memory.

With a hammer and drift, put a "dimple" in the wastegate actuator where it's hitting the oil filter housing. The actuator diaphragm is in the middle of the housing and won't be affected.

Here's the diagram for wiring in a relay. The yellow/white wire should have power when you first turn the ignition on or bump the starter. Test with a volt meter or test light. If the #30 terminal is jumped to #87 the fuel pump should run.

You can get the RV275 injectors for less than $400with the washers and connecting tube o-rings. https://www.dieselautopower.com/bosch-new-injector-rv275-marine-300-40hp-0432193635 Are you going to put them in yourself? If you do this will help.

Ya, and I paid $33,000 for my first house in California. I've been looking and they are all $500,000 plus now. Go figure.

Check your batteries. One might have a bad cell and the alternator is working overtime trying to keep up. I think @JAG1 had something like that happen to him.

#1 and #4 is the fuel draining off. I'd still start with replacing the sealing washers for the return line at the back of the head even though it shows good. Next put some new injectors in it. The truck most likely has some old injectors that are worn out. Try some RV275 injectors, they a mild up grade with new o-rings and washer when installing them.

Looks good, nice job mounting it to the bed frame. 250° is cooking, it will be interesting to see what it is now during a hard pull.

$45, no brainer, let them do it. If they break it or it leaks they own it.

Nice, are they powered, heated, sequential turn signals and have puddle light all for $160.00 a pair?

That's having a friend with benefits, nice.

I had a great time at Camp Mopar1973Man RV Resort and Truck Repair. Camp sites are spread out for social distancing with lots of elbow room. We even have electricity If your truck breaks down there is a covered work area with tools. There is even an on site mechanic if I need one. And the people are all friendly and the fees are reasonable. I highly recommend this resort to anyone traveling through.

I'd be looking at what @hdpwipmonkey said.

Amp draw test. https://www.hagerty.com/media/maintenance-and-tech/measuring-current/ A cheap Harbor Freight multimeter will work. https://www.harborfreight.com/automotive/diagnostic-testing-scanning/7-function-digital-multimeter-63759.html

The distance from the alternator to the right battery with a circuit breaker/fuse in line is just over 24" ( 2' ); 4 awg will carry 180 amps 72" ( 6' ) safely.

Heater Treater for heat/AC blend door. I installed one in @JAG1 truck two weeks ago in conjunction with the heater core and AC evaporator replacement. Note: when installing a heater treater, before removing the dash and HVAC housing, turn the ignition key to on and set the heater controller knob to the middle position. This will make putting the case back together easier and the motor will be indexed. http://heatertreater.net/dodge-ram-95-02

My VP44 took a dump, with out warning, while driving down a long grade at 55 MPH; the engine just died. The control board went bad with just over 90k on it. It was the original VP and there was never a yellow anti-tampering tag on it.

One trip I took the VP44 went bad, Mopar1973man had one delivered to his house and we installed it at a campground near by. Another time, in Moab, U,T the crank sensor went bad and found one at an O'Reilly. This last time had the right front wheel bearings go bad on the way to Mopar1973Man's house. Mike picked up a hub for me in Lewiston, ID at an O'Reilly and I had all the tools with me except for the socket for the spindle nut, Mike had one. So, if something brakes when your on the road you can get the parts in a day or two and may be have the tools or get them also to fix it yourself. Be safe, have fun, and enjoy the adventure.

Info like this should be written up as an article so this good info is easily found.

I would. It would give a idea of the valve and ring health. If low compression is found then do the leak down test on that cylinder to determine the problem.

Only if they took their truck to Clown Garage. By the look of it and what you said that clown broke it, "welded" it, and hoped you would never see it. If he kept on doing repair work for you no one else would see it either, And you get to drink beer while doing it.

Course ground black pepper good for over a year in a Toyota on Guam.
