    to much smoke

    Seriously somebody is going to post a picture of my truck in the idiot coal roller thread lol. It's a little imbarassing to fog out 3 lanes of traffic while merging. Some back story on the pump: while I had the engine out I took the pump ( 190? The truck was a auto) to have it bench flowed...

I called a few dealerships and most had no idea what I was talking about . One told me that syntorq I is no longer made. I looked up a on line store that was...

    clutch rod adjustments

    I'm happy to say I figured out why the rod on the master cylinder wasn't lining up with the stud on the clutch pedal. Apparently my truck has the bolt in bracket that the ms locks to even though my truck is a 96. I ordered the SB hydros for a 98-02 and the bracket that came with it was...

    clutch question

    Back when my truck was running I noticed it had a very stiff clutch pedal. I mean like pushing a cinder block through the floor board. The trans also shifted horrible. It took alot of pressure to get into the next gear and it would not go into reverse without going into 5th first. It was also...

    fan clutch is toast

    gutted afc

    I was told my afc was gutted. Sure looks like there is something in there.......... no fuel plate though. I also have an invoice from a shop that worked on the truck stating they removed afc boost line to prevent over fueling. Does that sound right?

    sorting out my 12v

    So I pulled the head and found what I was suspecting. Failed gasket between 3 and 4 cylinder. It was deteriorated from number 3 over to the head bolt hole then on to a water passage So I'm guessing that's why my coolant system was pressurized but no cross contamination between oil and water...

    removing my engine

    I have symptoms of head gasket failure. Soot in the overflow, a lot of pressure in the coolant system and the heater core sounds like there is a waterfall in it. It worries me because the head is studded so I'm thinking worse case is a cracked or warped head. So I decided I want to pull the...

    speed sensor location

    Ok so when I bought my 96 ram I was told it had a t case from a 24v. It's a auto to manual swap so I'm guessing the nv4500 and t case came from a 99 or later truck. All gauges work except for speedo and odom. I was given a what I was told was a speed sensor that would alow the speedometer to...

    hello from MD

I had several chipped 7.3 powerstrokes that would "roll coal" before fogging out a 3 lane roads was concidered cool. Pretty much had no choice.....dump lots of fuel...
