  1. Or they crushed a network pair somewhere, maybe going to the NOx module?
  2. What about that ground there's an SSM for? G400 I think it is?
  3. Mike, The diagnostic 8-ball says "SYNC issue".
  4. Peeled header wrap off a set of headers on a raptor today. Judging by the condition of the wrap and the color of the header tunes, the tune was a little lean (has a whipple on it). I had on gloves, long sleeves, respirator, and safety glasses and hat. (Keep in mind this was a bench job, not on the truck) I still want to burn all my skin off with a torch it itches so freaking bad. I don't know how guys bang fiberglass insulation in all day in construction, but I'd rather drink my own bath water than do that for a living. In conclusion, fiberglass sucks. Your itchy buddy, The Big Angry Hillbilly.
  5. Why not just fix the problem? Gummed up sensor, crappy fuel, etc.
  6. Nissan thing will hurt some dodge fanboys feelings.
  7. I think you're right, unfortunately.
  8. If I'd known that I would have put a couple plastic washers or something in that box
  9. Jesus the suspense was killing me. It got to the PO on Wednesday! Lol Glad you got it
  10. You mean this stupid thing? Don't get me going. $129. However, for some reason they also issued me a 310T certificate, which I'm not going to make waves about. The website says I'm a 310T apprentice, but the certificate is an actual C of Q.
  11. I liked the article in Diesel Power where they're heating a nitrous bottle with a fucking BLOWTORCH and there's three guys standing around beside it. Same clowns who play hot potato with a live grenade. Was nice to see a Powerstroke win for the second year in a row. The shot in Diesel Power magazine of the dyno cell, where you can't see the headlights of the truck because of all the black soot is somewhat discouraging, however.
  12. Used to be here in Ontario, when you bought a car, you could swing by the DOT office with a copy of the title, proof of insurance, and you could get a temporary tag to move the vehicle around, valid for 10 days, before you changed over the ownership. No big deal. Great for going to get it inspected, appraised, etc. Well, here we arrive today at me getting a temp tag at the DOT office. You now, preceding getting your temp tag, need to change the vehicle into your name. No big deal, right? Well, except now you're expected to pay 13% of the retail/wholesale book value, or an appraised value, whichever is highest, in sales tax. REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU PAID FOR THE CAR. If you submit a sales receipt for the car that's more than any of those values, you pay tax on that. The highest number wins. Then you need to purchase new license plates, for your temp tag which used to be a paper tag for the windshield. So basically, you need to pay tax on a vehicle and switch it into your name before you've even determined if it will ever go on the road again based on inspection results. Government bullshit taxes piss me off. The car I just bought has changed hands 8 times. So it's had sales tax paid 8 times. 9 now. Just another bullshit money grab. Sorry for the rant.
  13. I just key the truck on and bump it with the starter wire under the hood, if the sensor goes nutty and I know I genuinely have no issue.
  14. Had just dropped the filler nozzle into the fuel tank on my Impala SS when the power went out. Had been two mins earlier I'd have almost a full tank of free premium. Lol. Ran that thing past the E so far I thought the needle was gonna break off.
  15. Seen fan clutch = no start before but never the trans codes. Maybe it runs onto same vref circuit as the trans?
  16. The 4.5 I worked on that the plug/ring was hooped on was loose, come to mention it.
  17. The one I posted about here for a long crank had no codes. Plug in the oil rail LHS leaking.

    6.0L Alternators

    Install the big 6.4 alternator. 200 Amp IIRC. You need to machine the case a little around the heater tube bolt but it works pretty well. Did it on a couple conversion vans.

    6.0L Alternators

    In all honesty, I can't seem to locate a difference anywhere online. The parts room can't give you applications?
