    What's that noise?

    Just started today. Got really noticeable this evening. When the clutch is disengaged it rattles quite loudly. Can feel the vibration in the pedal. Engagement hasn't changed, shifting hasn't changed. Thoughts? It's a 3600 DD sprung hub I believe. It's the new "quiet" style. Has about 50,000km on...

    Trying to identify trans

    Well I picked up a 91 GMC CCSB 4x4 with a 1992 12v in it. Was the a518 the only auto available in '92? Discussing with a friend of mine it appears to be a 727. There is no connector on the case for the o/d. Here is a pic of the tail housing to help identify it. Also this trans has a really...

    Great Customer Service!!!!

    So I've been running zach's pushrods and springs for about two years now. A few weeks ago, I was puttin my injectors in and one of the pushrods must have popped out of the tappet. Fired the truck up and it had a terrible tick and rough idle. Pulled it apart and found this on number one. Called...

    Injector needle shim?

    So today I was putting my 90hp nozzles on my brand new injectors. Got through 4 of them and then noticed a small little metal disc. Took another nozzle off and this disc(shim?) fell out as well. It fits into a bore in the pressure pin between the nozzle. What is it? Also if one fell out what...

    Truck dies when coasting!!!!!!

    So it's happened a few times before, but really became apparent tonight. If I do a 1/2-3/4 throttle pull in 3rd or 4th an then step on the clutch, after a few seconds of coasting the truck dies. Watching the rail pressure gauge it drops off to about 4-5000 and then the truck dies. Fuel pressure...

    Stiff rad hose

    So I had my injectors out awhile back, and when we were putting them in my buddy noticed something. When I started the truck the upper rad hose became pressurized fairly quick. If you try go open the cap it bubbles out. He just did a headgasket and studs on a 05 dodge and when he fired it up it...

    Determining spacer size for dually?

    I'm looking into running some 33x12.50x17 tires on my dually. How do you determine what size of spacer to use between the duals? Currently running 265/70/R17's without a spacer.

    Injector solenoids

    So today I go to put my injectors in after getting them tested. Two of mine have bad delivery and return rates. So a friend has two good(tested) used ones. We get them all installed, get the connector tubes in. All the lines. Start putting in the solenoid wires and we notice that ine solenoid is...

    TNT-R

    So someone told me that the settings for TNT-R are different from the other smarty software. Is this true? Can someone tell me the difference? I.e. timing(1-4) and so on........ Or am I just wack and it's all the same?

    Truck popping, white smoke

    So I've had this problem before where if I accelerate hard at low rpm my truck starts popping and I get white smoke, it hasn't done it for a long time, but I recently lowered my smarty setting to sw-4 from sw-6 to try to get better mileage. While on sw-6 I never had this issue. I've got some...

    Injector Rattle

    So i recently installed some used ddp 90 horse nozzles on my 04.5 cr. I'm running an arson III and smarty beta 4.2 programming. This thing has mad injector rattle now and it is super annoying. You can't even hear the truck over the rattle when accelerating. It goes away around 2200rpm or more...
