Check out the Black Market Performance Cat Fuel Filter Lift Pump for $335.00 It is easy to install and has a CAT commercial grade pump mounted right on top that is easily replaceable as it is a standard lift pump on a lot of CAT heavy equipment. It pumps 95 GPH or roughly 1.6 gal per...

Summary for P0116 - Powertrain- Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit/Performance Problem; I did so much research on this code that I have forgotten where I found the comment that sent me on a path to resolve this issue. It very well could have been here or elsewhere. I found one comment where...

UPDATE; well, somewhat; I just returned from a trip to North GA (Amicalola Falls), put right at 1k miles on the old girl without incident. Two things I did learn from this trip, first I'm probably looking at injectors in my near future, at 250k miles I could barely squeeze 18.5 mpg by the...

Great info! Thanks. Instead of the group 4 error I got one specifically for injector 3. I did the ice pic solution on the injector plug 3 even though it was tight. I did managed to get the misfire to stop by forcefully moving both connectors on the driver side valve cover. I could move one...

Strange update; I've driven the truck for a 200+ miles with no issues, with the p0116 code still displaying. This morning, for whatever reason I decided to clear the code after a cold start. About 54% through clearing the code it started missing hard. Scanned again and I had the p2155 code...

Actually, started with the easy one first. Ambient temps at 8:30 this morning= mirror said 65 digital thermometer sitting on the cowl, leaning against the back edge of the hood= 67.6 IAT=69.8 ECT=68 Will try to test the wiring to the injectors tomorrow. I did drive it yesterday about 40...

Good info. I will start with the wiring tests. Thanks

Hey guys, been awhile but honestly, my lbz has been the most reliable truck I've owned. On my way back from a thanksgiving week camping/atv trip to Fat Daddys ATV park outside of Waycross, GA (about 2 hr. 20 min trip), towing my 21 foot enclosed toy hauler at capacity (7k), the passenger side...

Welcome aboard! Though I sold my '92 6.5 a few years back, this is the place where I got all the help I needed, the 6.5 TD gods live here! lol I took the same route as you putting in some aftermarket slave cylinder, though mine was external IIRC, but it had a short life, went with OEM and put...

I vaguely recall you mentioning that while we were in your shop doing the tune. Thanks for confirming.

Well, I've been driving her for 5 days now without an issue. New TCM, did a couple of (what appeared to me to be) ally quick learn things, nothing crazy like before but firm shifts going into reverse initially, a couple of firm...ish downshifts from 2 to 1 at about 5 mph, not the tire sliding...

The new TCM from Ryans diesel is supposed to be here tomorrow afternoon. The last paragraph of the description is what I'm not sure about. Ferm tuned my truck with efilive, not sure if the tcm is tuned separately, or gets its info from the ECM via the DSP5 switch. I will update once I get it...

That thing looks to be mint! I miss my old '92 6.5 You've come to the right place for all things 6.5! Welcome aboard!

As an example, I'm looking at the (new) pre-flashed TCM's at Ryan's Diesel service. Plug and play. $600.00, lifetime warranty. My time and towing to dealership are worth the additional $200-250 in initial costs...plus best warranty I've been able to find on a un-flashed TCM is 2 years, most are...

Thank you for your quick responses. I was already leaning towards a tcm replacement. So, that brings up another couple of questions. Are pre-flashed tcm's the preferred route? Any site vendors sell tcm's? This one is for Fermanator, I'm still running the efi live tune you installed on my...
