    Need help with Spartan tunes

    Definatly get the 210hp tune, I believe its the tune that nets the most fuel economy, and even though it will lay down good numbers, it has safties built in. It gets the best fuel economy because its one of only two of there tunes that turns off the EGR (the 250hp is the other tune that disables...

    New - 6.4L - F450

    Sounds like an awsome truck, gets some pics for us. Now if your going to go and void the warrenty with those mods, you might as well go all out and get a Spartan Dashdaque with dpf delete. That will be your biggest area for fuel economy gains. With the spartan people are reporting gains...

    Question '90 Ford E350 w 7.3L IDI Won't Start Hot

    This is one of the classic signs of a bad IP. Here is a test, when it does this to you again, go and pour around 12 ounces of luke warm water on the IP, if it starts, then you are 100% sure you need a new IP or rebuild that IP.

    trans fluid in the fuel?

    You will be 99.9% okay....theres always a chance of something going wrong :D. I would start to get worried if you put in 20+gallons into your tank. On another note, that guy who was running that I'm thinking has some coking issues from carbon buildup, because last I heard his truck was...

    trans fluid in the fuel?

    Wow, I guess you guys are just talking about adding it as an additive. I know a guy who runs ATF 50/50 with diesel, he doesnt go more because ATF burns hotter, and EGT's get to high easily. I should add, this is all used ATF

    6.9L upgrades

    In that case, stick with the G code injectors. They are a little more than the injectors that came stock in our 6.9's, but they are better. They flow more fuel, and have a higher pop off pressure. If you do get G code injectors, you will have to bump the timing a little more advanced because of...

    6.9L upgrades

    We need a little more information. First off, is the truck N/A (stock) or turbo'ed? That is probably the biggest factor. dps-performance.com is the only place that sells upgraded injectors, but I've heard bad things about them, that they flow well but the spray pattern is horrible, which results...

    Hydrogen generator?

    Yeah, I have plans for some more lights to help out the crappy stock ones (well the Euro lights from LMC truck, they are better, but still leave a lot to be desired) :sweet Yeah, it should be a pretty dang big unit. Hopefully it will fit into my toolbox, if not, it'll go under it. I might go...

    Hydrogen generator?

    I'm thinking my full size generator is going to be a little on the big side. I'm thinking 40-60 plates, 2-3 plates per little section (I'm thinking about basing my system off of that one big one on youtube, search hydrogen generator, it should be the first one). Probably 4x6" each. I'll use...

    Hydrogen generator?

    I'm still experimenting with small scale models.

    Question dpf removal

    What I was saying there was that you couldnt just pull the dpf and put in a piece of exhaust tubing in its place, without the holes for the sensors. And yes, it will throw a bunch of codes, and the truck will run very, very poorly. It might not do it at first, but the software will detect that...

    IS THIS RIGHT?

    I always thought the 6.4's had a variation of the CP3's that the cummins and duramax use. I could have sworn I saw a pic of it sitting on the back of the engine with a gear drive off of something. I think that the 6.4 has a higher common rail pressure with the 6.4 than either the duramax or...

    Question dpf removal

    You have to have a dpf delete tune, or otherwise your in trouble. The problem is that you have to have the two sensors in the pipe, if you just get rid of the dpf and dont use the correct dpf delete pipe, then the sensors wont be in it, and the truck will throw codes. Now if you took off the dpf...

    Hydrogen generator?

    I wouldnt mind injecting O2 into the mix, gives a more complete burn. Also...I really dont see anything wrong with putting water vapor into the mix as well, it would act as a low grade water injection system...hopefully keeping the EGT's down. 5L/min is going to be hard with those amps. We...

    Hydrogen generator?

    Well then, my words dont have crap against yours then :eek::D I will have to do some more studying up on it. At this point all I have really done is built a couple different H generators (using stuff laying around the shop), and watched a bunch of vids on youtube looking at different setups.

    Hydrogen generator?

    Yes I DO understand what you are talking about. Yes, I know what electrolysis is....you gotta realize I have taken chem...I got selected to go into advanced chem...ect....I know some stuff. This is what I would like to call experimentation. What would happen if it doesnt work...I'm out...

    Hydrogen generator?

    The difference though with us is that we are not looking at running a system with only 1 liter of water....I'm looking into a system that contains a couple gallons....trust me, a big system. I'm looking into at least a minimum of 2 liters per minute, at least. This is all experimentation. Using...

    Hydrogen generator?

    Ok, I've done some more research. Basically I've gone onto youtube and watched a crap load of vids to see whats worked for people. It looks like people running more than 12 volts are seeing a better production of hydrogen. My thinking would be to possibly rig up a 120volt inverter. You would...

    mpg readings w/dpf delete and programmer

    Which tune are you using? I heard a couple guys who ran a SCT dpf delete tune, then switched to a spartan DPF delete tune, and they said it was good for 2-3mpg better than the SCT.

    Hydrogen generator?

    Yeah I figured I would mess around with Ammonia, NH3. I was just thinking though, maybe Ammonium would be better, its NH4. The bond type might be different, might have a stronger bond = more amps to break it apart making it not a good substance to use. I should post up a vid of my current...

    Hydrogen generator?

    I'm going to be experimenting with a hydrogen unit in my truck in all my experiementing to see what yeilds better fuel economy (I have a thread over on OB's about it). Anyways I was bored today, so I went out and made a little test unit. I basically took a bolt, wraped it in teflon tape. Then I...

    Not Impressed!

    Yes, that is the truth right there. I also heard that tires on a cummins last around 100K miles (inside joke from OB'ers)
