Well I bought Lyndons tuner tool it weren't cheap, I'm just smart enuff with it to be dangerous, I was working with Bill to try to get a decent tune for mine we were almost there, but I when I was finishing up the "project engine build" for the K1500 Bill convinced me I just had to use his HT-4...

First I want to apologize for derailing your thread WECSOG I haven't been here since about 2013 and some of the "old hands" popped in asking questions. For the rest of you, I got away from all forums for a while I needed to decompress a lot of things happening in past few years, I've missed my...

Yes came close to losing her, and a mini stroke to boot due to botched hip replacement that got infected, infection in blood stream we didn't know about until 2 years later that had eaten one of her heart valve "leaflets" away. JiFaire & I kept close tabs as he was going thru similar valve...

From what I read on TDR forum could be either or both stuck or broken, at least it is stuck/broken in the cab A/C on position, yup my ole 6.5 has yet to leave me stranded been a good one I've owned since 2000 I think I might just keep it :)

All healed and still mean as ever :)

Howdy almost neighbor I'm a ways South of you down on MS Gulf Coast I have a camp in Andalusia I hang out at a lot, I've been absent from here a while, I'm seeing some familiar faces still hanging around; you are in good company joining here, some good 6.5 "been there done that" knowhow onboard.

Hmnn edit time limit on original posts now, I'll have to remember that, I started delving in Dodge April 2018, as I said 2nd thoughts about it, 2006 5.9 24V good engine 199K on engine, 3500 crew cab 4x4 dually, crappy rest of the truck from my experience thus far, I had to park it for about 4...

Well as one who recently made the Dodge transition I'm having serious 2nd thoughts about it, 2006 5.9 24V good engine 199K on engine, crappy rest of the truck from my experience thus far, Oh I still have both my 98 6.5s probably until I die, no regrets with either of them. Howdy fellow 6.5ers...

Use as much steel as you can, that way short pieces only require reploacement, also needs to be Diesel fuel rated, or Bio-D if you ever plan on running some of that, regular gasser fuel line won't work for long rubber is too soft andf gets gummy. Diesel line can get hard and crack over time so...

That is why I used copper gauge line on mine much more durable than hose/nylon, yeah in might leak someday, but "I love smell of Diesel in the morning" :) used to "swim" in Diesel fuel back in my USN days as the ships "Fuel/Oil/Water King", I can cap the fitting if need be I've been...

Funny thing about the ATT installs, they will tell you if willing to listen-look-learn in earnest instead of listening to the "naysayers" that be "hatin on it" that something isn't just right, could be low oil pressure-weak injectors-leaking x-over, weak valve springs, starving for fuel with...

Ahh new alternator did it have the correct size pulley ? Did you measure old vs. new even in the AC Delco there have been some pulley sizing issues over the years, BTW tach signal is different from the voltage output and generally has no relation to the charging ability vs. rpm display on dash.

Jay a volt meter only tells part of the story, if one burns out it will tell that reading open, also will tell if you have no or weak voltage, but what it won't tell you is if a glow is only partially heating, only way to really test a glow is to remove it and apply 12V to it, what you are...

Didn't say mean to imply otherwise, just that what Dennis is working on is better, Dennis also had Buddy tune for a while and has gone even deeper into the program that Buddy has gone and for a significantly improved price point.

Good thought Jani, PLT89 you said drop in rpm by 400 are you talking about displayed rpm on dash or the rpm signal from the speed sensor/PCM displayed on a scan tool?

Trying to leverage what has been learned in OBD-I to OBD-II but as you know more complexity to doing the OBD-II stuff but some things still in the works on that front, a couple of test platforms running it now for a "plug & play" upgrade.

There are multiple fail modes heat direct component damage is but one of them, also thermal cyclic fail, electrical current issues from poor gnds, and crappy individual components, many years ago at old site I did a survey fail location vs time installed #1 fail location was on IP, #2 was under...

You might want to talk to Dennis about a better matched ATT tune, some more R&D taken place in last 8 mos that you may want to take advantage of.

Warmer weather coming, some new faces on the board thought I'd bump this back up to the top of the pile for consideration why a remote FSD out of the engine bay is one of the best recommendations we make around this forum.

In the elbow at start of run driver to passenger side "low point" driver side You talking about aftermarket headers or the original cast ones? if cast probably not an issue,
