    ambulance package ecm reflash

    I know that is what I should probally do but I just thought it would be nice to have 40 more on top of what the tuners would gain. I also kind of have a guy at the local dealer that might do it cheaper then the shop rate. I just wanted to know if anyone else has heard of this.

    ambulance package ecm reflash

    I was told by a guy at super chips today that there is a reflash the dealer can do to my truck to gain about 40 horse power. It is apparenty part of some EVAC package I guess. He also said the dealer could turn off the pilot injection to make possible to run single shots without a chip. I not...

    Making Smoke

    I am waiting to get a DP tuner until I put in new single shot injectors and a dual hpop system. I was just thinking of something to temporary to make it smoke off of an idle until I am able to upgrade injectors and oil pumps. I know of guys that put a resistor on the signal side of boost...

    Making Smoke

    To start off, I know that gobs of black smoke is wasteful, gives diesels a bad rap, and possibly harmful to the engine. I don't often do this, but I like to pull up beside cars with fart cannons on them and give them some diesel smoke to choke on. So onto my question, is it posible to fool the...

    Poor fuel mileage

    I pour in about 4oz of marvel mystery oil for every 10gal of diesel. Less then 2000 miles on a change of Shell 5w-40 synthetic, the pour milage didn't start with the oil. I get my fuel from a 1000 gal tank of road fuel at home here, it has 2% bio in it. I haven't seen any B20 pumps around...

    Poor fuel mileage

    My truck used to make about 18mpg in early spring and dropped to about 15mpg all summer long. It has new fuel filters on and I am pretty sure the fuel is good another truck is making about 20mpg. It seems to crank a liitle longer then it used to and it takes longer when the oil is warm. It...

    2000 p./s rough running

    mine did the same thing only 2 idm's, 1 pcm, 1 vc harness, and one new injector latter the problem was solved. If it isn't the vc harness I would do a injector buzz test and see if 8 is weak or not. If I would have put in a new injector in the first place, I would be a lot richer.

    Thanks for the help. I will try to figure something out to make sure that it is a bad injector. Thanks

    P0284 trouble code

    I thought an injector could be the problem, isn't number 8 supposed to be a long lead, I thought I read about that sometime. The wire from the computer out doesn't cause problems does it. Could make for an oppritunity for bigger injectors too. Thanks

    P0284 trouble code

    My truck has been having a slight miss on number 8 and doesn't set the check engine light. I did the cylinder contribution test and found the p0284 code. I bought a new VC harness and gasket and installed it on the left side, it helped for a couple days and then it was back. The international...

    P1316 code

    I pulled my truck into the shop to check the wires and connectors and found the problem. I unhooked the main engine harness turned it over and found the wire that fires Number 6 injector rubbed through. I seen where it was rubbing and shorting out on the valve cover. I taped up the wire and...

    P1316 code

    I should be able to use one Monday or Tuesday. The only thing is it seems to do it intermintinly. When I pull up to a stop light I can hear what sounds like a partial miss, but the truck doesn't shake like it is not firing at all and the CEL isn't on. Sometimes it runs just fine and lately...

    P1316 code

    How do you pull codes off the IDM? I am thinking it is probally a harness, but don't want to buy parts I don't need. 2 weeks ago the harnesses looked fine when I had the valve covers off. Thanks Gail

    P1316 code

    My truck showed this 3 times today. Once going to work and twice coming back. I think its someting to do with the Injector circut/IDM codes detected. But once I cleared it, it would run fine until the CEL would come on. Thanks in advance. Gail
