    Taking my baby to the shop

    Taking the LB7 to the shop to have it diagnosed for white smoke at idle. Sure hoping it is an injector cup or rail pressure sensor and not injectors. Injectors were done once at 90K and now have 140K. I change the fuel filter every 10K with a napa gold or AC Delco and use 2-stroke oil in warm...

    Adding boost gauge

    I am putting a boost and pyro gauge in my 2500. My question is, since I have a banks big head with a larger vacuum hose, will this effect the accuracy of the gauge or is PSI of vacuum the same no matter the diameter of house.

    Dealer won't cover non-stock!

    My wife took my truck to the dealer today for my smoking at idle issue. I removed my edge but left the banks intake and big head on. Right away, they said the banks stuff will void any injector warranty work! What a crock! Anyone ever find a dealer that has a good diesel tech that...

    Since a trip to MN a month ago, (-12 degrees F) My edge does not sense air intake temperature below 32 degrees. I have also developed a smoking exhaust, at idle only. I am wondering if my Air Flow Sensor has gone bad? Any way to test it?

    Towing Driving Habits?

    When you have a 10K-15K load on, do you use cruise control on grades? I have used cruise and just let the d/a do its job, but I just don't like the sudden downshift and screaming RPMs when it can't gain the speed that is set. I have also sped up on downgrades and let it gradually slow on the up...
