O.k. Well i put the new probe in the same place. And i got the same results. This truck will not get hotter than 185. I have 2 195 thermostats. It will not get hot. Even when i lived in kansas hauling on hot days, It would not get hotter than 190. I even took the fan off a couple of months ago...

I just pulled the abs fuse under the hood, and put tape over the light. Done

O.k. i do not trust my factory gauge. I bought a aftermarket kit. Where do i put the sensor? Now do i put it in the front lefthead, where the factory is? Or put it somewhere else? Like in the front by the top of water pump? Thank you so much

Thank you all for your help. I will just let it be for now.

o.k. i have a 95 code F. When it is very cold the engine taps in the top. Then when it warms a little it goes away. About 5 minutes or less. Only when the outside temp is below freezing. No matter what if the temp is over 32 degrees out side it does not do it. I checked all the glowplugs...

I took both batteries out and took them back to the interstate dealer. And he load tested them they are good. The truck now has no draw except a little like i guess it should. Starts fine now. It was corrosion on the grounds and battery cables. Cleaning the glow controller conections and the...

I think realized another problem. I never did drive the truck to charge the batteries yet. So i took them out and i am gonna slow charge them all the way up. And then let them set in the cold for a day and then check the charge. I just hope i did not get some bad batteries as i just bought them...

Well these batteries i just bought were the interstate megatron 2's. And brand new they only showed 12.44. Should they be more? I checked all the grounds and pos cables they all check out good. I was told running the volts on both batteries should be over 14 volts and even. I did not have...

Thank you for your help. Well today after setting for 24 hours and the batteries both hooked up and the radio clock memory still on. I have 12.44 volts. That's the exact same as i had yesterday. So i have fixed my draw problem. What it was i do not know. I have been going through all the...

I have another question. Does anyone know what draws power with the truck shut off and sitting for a while?. I know the radio clock. But is their any other thing that draws power? Thank you guys alot

I think i have a short somewhere. So for the last 2 days i have went completely through the wiring. I even removed the steering column wires and checked for shorts. I checked all the grounds under the hood and cleaned them too. I took the grounds off the frame and body on the right side and...

On my 95 code f. If i disconnect the batteries , It wont restart easy. The glowplug light only comes on for a second then off. The fuel pump is not clicking. Now if i keep bumping the starter after a few minutes the fuel pump starts clicking and the glowplug lights stays on and it starts...

i think its the 4.10 gears and the 29 inch tall tires. it seems my other truck i had with 3.73 and 31 inch tires got better mileage empty, but a lot worse loaded and less power while loaded too.too. thanks

oh and one more thing before i hear people say i might be wrong on the weight, i went across the scales and it was 18,130 pounds i thought for sure i was gonna have problems. and their was none. thanks

o.k. i have a 95 ive had for 2.5 years. The best tank empty was 16.7 once. In 2011 i took it to michigan with no trailer. it got around 16 mpg. Well over the weekend i took my equipment trailer to michigan loaded. I had a little over 18,000 lbs gross total. 65 mph to 70 mph. At between 2200 rpms...

I did a little reserch. It seems this sensor on the f vin , trucks only reads at start up. I dont understand why though. Its something to do with altitude and boost. It sounds like to me it has something to do with the wastegate on the turbo. could be a little bit of though. thank you

thanks guys. now what is that? what does it do? does the truck need it. advantage to having it is what? thanks again. the reason i ask is i put a new pittman arm on and when i removed the steering box, or when i put it on i broke holder clip and it came off. last tuesday i pulled my big...

Hey, I have a question about heat. Now i see people talk about to much heat. I had 180 stats and my truck would never go above 190. Now i have 195 dual stats, and even last summer here in kansas 110 degrees many times over the summer, i never got above 200. Now my question is is that a bad...
