    A new one on me! 6.5 very very hard to start.

    Another thought, if usings a factory style lift pump, trash in the outlet check of it could possibly let fuel drain back to the tank and maybe lose prime and your modified in tank pickup sucking air at low fuel level ?

    A new one on me! 6.5 very very hard to start.

    Did you use a 6.5 sock with check valve in it or a gassser sock, it makes a difference, also does your former gasser tank have the baffle in it to keep from air being sucked into the fuel system in a turn with low level in tank sloshing over to one side?

    pressurize or not?

    Sealed system Al we get every bit as hot as you do in South Ms maybe even hotter at times and even towing to 18K I don't overheat, clean system, working fan clutch, stats and caps as designed are all that are required to keep the engine properly cooled.

    Illville I moved your posts to their own thread it is easier to track a problem in it's own thread, once you find the codes post them your description is too broad to do much more than throw out a bunch of guesses.

    Other consideration is charging rate/amperage for deep cycle batteries you can kill deep cycle batts with a chagrge rate being too fast, I run my camp on solar power using marine deep cycle batts AGM from a sailboat a buddy was parting out, and I "killed them" by using the wrong charger type...
