    Big Truck Question about Idling

    Yeah, let's look at that compressor. If we go through the hassle of removing it, let's replace that bolt in the adapter.

    Model year? I forgot what you're driving. 11-15 conventionals have a wheeled adjuster, turned with an 8mm socket.

    Gauge lamps

    There's no reason LEDs couldn't go in there, that I know of. The polarity just has to be correct. Another recommendation for superbrightleds.com. You might have to graft a LED to your existing base. They are available in different colors, too.

    At this point, anything I offer you will just be conjecture. There are some that I just have to hook a computer to and drive around until it gets pissed off. If you're ever halfway up the east coast, I'd be happy to look.

    Have you found any debris yet? If the symptoms are still there after checking for restrictions, don't jump over to the high pressure side until you've run the truck off of an aux fuel source. If you confirm that everything in your test setup is clean, and the truck fails to perform, then you...

    What the hell. How are they failing?? If they are repeatedly coding for U0073, check the ground wire on the VNT connector for high resistance to ground. Check for proper CANH and CANL voltage, check for proper power supply. While you're at it, aggressively debride every ground connection on...

    Those trucks didn't have a crankcase vent filter. You could add one by getting the cap off of an 11-up truck, and pulling a plastic thing out of your breather housing and throwing it away. Install cap and filter off later era truck, good to go. P0087: Take one of the banjo bolts out of the...

    If the exhaust brake comes on when it ramps up, it's entering 'white smoke prevention mode'. This can be turned off in the ecu customization menus. The ecu has a provision to recognise when a pto is activated. You can have it ramp immediately to a specific rpm and provide all the power it's...

    What I hate most about winter is bringing snow-covered trucks into the shop and watching them piss 20 gallons of water onto the floor as it melts. Shop floor was a foul olympic pool this morning. The new guy needs to learn to jack the front high into the air and set on jackstands so the water...
