Doubletrouble

Just wanted to take a minute and wish all my friends here a Happy New Year! Hope it is a better year than the past two have been. Let's all hope for the best!

.08? Even that sounds low. @Mopar1973Man will chime in I'm sure but I think it should show nearly 10%

Glad to hear ya got it figured out. Mine is showing 0% load at idle. It stays around 810-820 rpm at the moment. Planning on new injectors in the spring. I'm thinking 50 or 75hp from DAP. She may smoke a little for a bit. Planning on other additions later to clear it up.

Curious @2000Cumminsyessir, what injectors did you go with?

Ok, just wondering. I was thinking back to lashing valves in a chevy small block. Made a mess of the inner fenders. Lol

Just an observation, I've never had the rocker cover off my cummins yet. With the engine running shouldn't there be oil squirting out of the push rods? Or does just enough come out to lubricate? Just curious.

High on Friday here is 51° above.

That would be pretty cool!

To add to @Mopar1973Man suggestions, the quad adrenaline also has gauges built into it. I like the idea of having gauges on the A pilar myself. Quick glance and you see whats up and right near your line of sight. Plus they do look cool. For what your doing though you could have saved a few $$. Just my $.02

Gonna be calling them anyway. I returned the radiator I ordered from Amazon ( sent the wrong one). Gonna order one from DAP this time. Don't know why I didn't use them in the first place. Brain cramp

I saw that on their site. How does that work? They show a price of $600 (if I remember correctly, could be wrong) but it states a fee of $50 for shipping to and from. I guess I don't understand how much it really costs..... Don't know of anyone close to me that has one to "borrow" to get it done.

I don't have the high idle feature on my truck. I talked to a local dealership, they told me about $60 to install or enable the factory programming. I didn't do it at the time because it was last spring and warm. I wouldn't have known if it worked until now. Lol

I can't see a trickle charger being an issue. The alternator would put more out than a trickle charger ever would. As far as a jump, our trucks have 2 750cca batteries in from the factory. There is already alot of juice there but unless you were to arc high voltage to it I don't see how it would damage the box. Maybe the low voltage attempt but even then I don't think that would do it either. I'm curious to hear what they say.

This morning I woke up at 5:30am, it was 58°F and raining.

Better for that to happen around home rather than hundreds of miles away.

I agree, that was the idea behind starting this thread. I was hoping to get a few people within a reasonable distance to get together more or less for a meet and greet and talk trucks or whatever else comes up.

We have about 6.5 acres here at the house. Some of it is pasture but at the moment now cows up and coming.

I don't have full hookups but do have plenty of room.

If you ever make it to Ohio I'm sure i have enough land to accommodate.

Are you against relocating? LMAO Everything is flat land here. Your truck would hit record MPG's !

Sure will!

I work out of Toledo Ohio, I drive a car hauler. Hauling mostly Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators to dealers up that way.

Mine being a manual I don't have those. Someone with an auto might come along soon and give some input.

I was just in your neighborhood last week. Delivered in Elgin IL. I get up that way about once a week here lately. Elgin, Belvedere, Skokie, Fox Lake

@Max Tune I agree, I didn't buy a dually for fuel mileage. With fuel prices now days I thought I would post up some basics to get started. There may be some out there that are a little short due to economy that need to save a few dollars and cents where they can. I've been there myself in the past.
