    Thinking of trading in your diesel on gas??

    What's your take on HHO? All of the stuff I've read seems to make sense to me. I'm very close to installing one in the next month or so.

    vacuum source on 7.3 for Hydrogen cell install

    tnhybrids.com has a pump that they use. You may be able to pick one up from them or, after seeing what they use, procure one locally.

    Thinking of trading in your diesel on gas??

    Hydrogen is the future. I've been doing a lot of research on HHO. Very promising in my opinion. There are kits out there now for $1500 to convert your car/truck to use hydrogen. Obviously you would have to supplement diesel with the HHO unlike gassers which are running on pure HHO. I'm seriously...

    Just a follow up- I load tested both batteries after I charged them. One would get to 60% and the other to only 50%. The were Duralast Golds. Took them to AutoZone and after warranty computations I ended up paying $13.20 for 2 new batteries. The batteries were at 80% charge so I trickled charged...

    Didn't have time to mess with it today. I poured some Coke over the connections this morning. I'm cleaning all the connections tonight when I get home from work. Load testing both batteries and trickle charging for awhile to see what kind of shape they are in. If they test out bad or weak I'm...

    Well, after driving it for 1.5 hours I believe something bad electrically happened today. My speedo started out at 80 MPH and has slowly kept going clockwise and is now at about -25 MPH below the peg. It needs to go all the way counter clockwise back to zero. It doesn't move now. My blinkers and...

    won't start

    It just started. I don't what the deal was but I'm starting to suspect too low/bad battery/batteries. I had my charger/starter on it for a while and it just started up normally. I would still like to hear anybody's thought/ideas though. Thanks, Odie.

    I can't believe I'm needing this thread so soon after the 'ran out of diesel deal' a little while ago. Anyways, went to pick up some fencing at a guys house this morning. Truck started fine, ran fine, etc. Started 3 times before the issue arose. Was all finished loading fencing and went to...

    Help Needed ran out of fuel/won't start

    Started right up and ran just as you described. After about 10 minutes it's running much better. I'm assuming I was just letting the air out of the lines when the valve was opened up. Thanks again Joe.

    Largest tire on a stock wheel

    What is the largest tire any of you have/are running on a stock 16 x 7" aluminum wheel? I'm running 285/75/16's now. Needing new ones shortly. Would like to go to 315's if possible. I know what the tire places say and have done alot of research but would like to hear from someone that is running...

    exhaust

    Have you looked at Summit.com? I just bought their 4" aluminized turbo back for $295. Very happy with it. Not too loud. Loud is relative though- I ride Buells and Harleys, own a CJ-7 that I stuffed a 360 into with fenderwell headers and mufflers at the end of them, and fly helicopters for a...

    Lower steering knuckles loose?

    It sounds like it's time for some new ball joints. I just put new hub assemblies and ball joints on mine. It's a slow task, even with air tools and a 20 ton press. It drives so much better though. Jack your front axle up so one sides tire is off the ground. Grab it and see if you can feel it...

    INSTALLING 08 MIRRORS

    I went from flag mirrors on my '01 to '08's and the difference is incredible. I tow in a much better mood now. Plus they make the truck look a little beefier. I scored mine on Ebay from PA. The State contracted for heated/power mirrors but the came with manual/non-heated ones. They were selling...

    Shimming the fpr?

    I've been meaning to get around to the FPR mod for my '01. I have a question or two though. I assume you can use a fuel pressure gauge that you can buy from Summit, etc. One that will be permanently installed under hood? Where, exactly do you install it? If there were pics of the gauge installed...
