    HOW MUCH FUEL IS TO MUCH? Smoke is acceptable or not acceptable, EGT discussion

    98. Sometimes I question if it has the rumored 210 hp tune as it was a special use vehicle from the factory. I guess I would have to read fuel rates to know.

    Learned a painful lesson doing an oil pan gasket.

    The forced air induction\more fuel thread...

    ON a side note, my 93 had a threaded shiter knob. Was that an older style shifter ? I hate the knob and want a Hurst T handle . for the 4wd lever I want a skull that lights up when the truck is in 4wd...:devil:
