    Is my truck a lightweight?

    Mine weighed in a at just over 7000#s. Thought it would be more.

    Cold Air Intake: My version

    Good to know. Thanks for the info. I guess I need to get a scanner.What did you do to replace the signal light? Did you put mesh in or what?

    Cold Air Intake: My version

    Whistle? Since I put on the paper filter, I have no whislte at all. Kinda sucks. :nonod: I guess this tin can would quiet it down even more.

    Cold Air Intake: My version

    You said it! My buddy and I were talking about that when I put the scoop on top. Need a junker hood to practice on with a die grinder and some fiberglass.

    Cold Air Intake: My version

    While driving, it will scoop air that flows between the hood and grill, not too worried about hot air up front while the truck is moving.

    Cold Air Intake: My version

    Hey everyone. Felt ambitious this week, and decided to build myself a "true" cold air intake, not just an elbow with a filter on it. I teach introductory sheet metal, so I have access to some tools that make life little easier on a project like this. I had to flatten the top of the fender well...

    Doing Coolant Flush on 97

    Sweet. Just a thought here, when I flushed mine, I also flushed the heater core in reverse, so from the rad back to the therm. housing, and I got chunks of rubber to come out that had been blocking my heater core coolant flow. Couldn' hurt. FYI, the rubber was from the AC delco "million dollar"...

    Doing Coolant Flush on 97

    Get rid of dexcool, green is more common and less finnicky. Put a garden hose in the bypass port and run about 20 gallons of water through the block, that should be good enough to put in long life green, it worked for me. The rad takes about 15 min. to remove, so I would suggest, as Matt did, to...

    PMD replacement, now no fuel...

    Last time that happened to me, I forgot to hook the ground wire back up.

    Gettin' the mods in 'er done!

    Congradulations Art, you spent some serious cash on this project, and the best part is you're not disappointed! GLE or GL4 are in near future for me too, but I need to get pyro setup done first. Wouldn't mind doing a test drive with you sometime to see the difference. Who know's maybe I will...

    Injector Knocking?

    You could just have air in the line. Stupid question, but have you tried cracking the line while it is running to bleed off any air? I have heard it will tick with air trapped inside. Just a thought, good luck.

    Replacement turbo

    Anybody out there have any comments on the ATT and stock programming? Curious to see what the mileage gains etc. are.

    New Stanadyne PMD

    That was purely speculation. I have one and have had no issues, and it gets plenty cold here.

    New Stanadyne PMD

    QUOTE=Ratman;131323]My thoughts exactly. They may as well have given all the DS4 guys the BIG middle finger. You mean like this :fing26: !!! ROFL!!!

    New Stanadyne PMD

    The connector change is an assanine thing to do. Now if we want to carry a spare, it has to have the same connector as the new module. Forget it. I have Dtech now, and will from now on. I say screw 'em!

    AT vibration drone

    May sound silly, but it could be an exhaust vibration, and when you have the truck in drive with the brake on, it causes everything to torque just enough to be louder than otherwise. Just a thought.

    Wheel bearing/HUB ABS light problem

    I was just trying to enforce your experience for the benefit of others. You have done a lot more of this than me, I am sure.:smile5:

    Wheel bearing/HUB ABS light problem

    You're a luck man! I had a similar experience 2 years ago, but no ABS light. The axle wasn't busted either, but it nearly locked up on me. Those bearing assemblies are expesive up here, but the replacement was fairly easy on the 2500. Should be a routine maintenance check, both front wheel...

    Hard start, and smoke

    Sounds like your glows aren't cycling or you have several burnt out. Does it run smoother after it warms up? Will it start better after warming up?

    How to Diagnose Tired Injection Pump

    Could you be a bit more specific. 2000rpm test? Hold it at 2000 rpm and see if it sputters? What is the fuel rate supposed to be at idle?
