with 6 gallons left in the 34 gallon tank? had to sit in traffic facing up hill and I'm guessing it all ran to the back of the tank. How many gallons do you guys usually run them down to?
in my truck when on the cruise control you can feel like the truck is hitting bumps or 'surging' (if you want to call it that) when going downhill.
my dads 8.1 truck does this too, but its slightly more noticeable on the 6.5.
I'm not to worried about it, just wondering what causes it.
What is the difference between the 40 dollar switch I have seen people using on their allisons (4l80e switch) and the actual allison switch that costs 3 times that? Why do they have 2 different switches?
I have an un-used intercooler sitting on my shelf that would fit my truck, would it be worth going through the trouble of rigging it up to work? How would it compare to running the ATT with no intercooler (or with one for that matter). The truck has a diamond eye exhaust.
Would it be better...
usually my running lights stay on during after glow, today, the solenoid for the running lights shut off every time afterglow came on... never did it before, and only did it once today. are they supposed to shut off? is my relay stuck on?
where can I find all the internal specs of a 6.5?
crank dimensions (journal diameters)
rod dimensions (journal diameters and length)
the weight of the balancer and flexplate counterweights
bore spacing
all that kinda stuff?
the left rear brakes keep sticking on my truck, I had removed the hub/drum and cleaned inspected and lubed everything, and it worked nice for about a week and started dragging again... it wierd, after i drive the truck maybe 1/2 mile it free's up, but if I park the truck and it cools for more...
When I first start my truck and venture down the road empty with no load, the temp gauge will go up to 215 degrees, and then drop down to about 180 and then creep back up to 200 and stay there for as long as i drive it, and never go back to 215 until it sits overnight and i leave the next day...
on my friends truck 07 classic, he had the fuel filter and transmission lines changed and 20 minutes after getting it back these two codes popped up.
checked the sensors with my scan tool
makes about 3 psi max boost pressure
Turbo vane pos. sensor shows its moving.
can't hear or see...
I've noticed that none of the vent positions on my truck blow very strong, and whatever selection I put it on I always get some residual heat blowing from the other vents (making my cold soda turn hot). Both the hot/cold switch and fan speed switch work as they should.
Is this something...
Changed out the drivers side glow plugs.... found this-
it was broken before I pulled it out, Looks like one of the bad injectors I had torched the end off... Very likely this is part of my cold start smoke.
Also replaced the washer pump-
looks like it caught on fire, all the...
