A little more than a year ago my truck started shutting off. It was like someone just turned off the ignition switch. It was completely random and always started right back up. Then it got more frequent, then it got harder to start, and then it didn't start. I suspected the PMD, as it was the...

Well, the time has come to install the parts I have been collecting. I purchased my truck in October 2008. From what I can tell it is stock. I have a 97 K1500, "S" engine, and .373 gears. I've been lurking on the site for about two years, mostly reading and trying to learn. I will be...

I bought my truck with over-sized tires (305/70 16) and have checked the speedometer numerous times and found it to be accurate. Is it possible for the odometer to be off while the speedometer is accurate? I am asking because I'm trying to track fuel mileage. With a 22 gal tank, I am only...

It is my understanding that the waste gate on a turbo helps control how much boost is applied (please correct me if i'm wrong). That being said, if the A-Team Turbo has no waste gate how is boost controled?

With taller tires, I'm running 305/70's, would 4.10's actually help improve my fuel mileage? I've always figured a taller gear meant higher RPM's which meant more fuel, but it should actually take less fuel to go the same speed, shouldn't it? I'm still learning about the 6.5, I've read...

Hey Patrick, I'm thinking about a FTB upgrade when I get my new lift pump. I have a few questions... What exactly has to be done to the fuel manager? Does your kit include what is needed for the modification of the fuel manager or do I need to purchase that seporately? If I purchase a...

Hello everyone, I just updated my signature so I won't repeat what you all can see. I've had my truck for a year in October, almost 10k miles ago, so far no problems. I have a little fishbiting right now, but not bad at all, comes and goes. Hoping that a new lift pump will fix that. I figure a...

I just found this site and have enjoyed it quite a bit. This will be my first question, I'm sure many will follow, I appreciate all the experience that seems to be here. I have a '97 K1500, "S", 3.73's, and from what I can tell it is bone stock. Truck has 143k miles on it. Right now I am...
