Going on a 1000 mile trip pulling an RV. Need to change the fluid in the trans. and rear differential. Truck is fairly new to me, have not done these jobs before. Need to know the best fluid types and amounts. Thanks.
I did the process described by jaythecpa and no noticeable ill effects occurred. So, I'll assume all is well. Jaythecpa I noticed you have done the Duramox fan/clutch swap out. I would like that mod myself. Can you tell me all I need to know about that?
Update: Did the described re-learn process for the VATS. Took three 10 min. periods. But...it worked. After the re-learn process using the KOJO ECM, I switched back to the stock ECM. Got the truck to operating temp., and then switched back to the KOJO ECM. Followed their instructions, and...
Really...? So, the procedure would be re-install the old ECM, bring back to operating temp. Switch out to the new ECM and run through Kojo install process...? Or, once the new one is installed just keep repeating...?
With the old ECM, the security light did not stay on constantly. With the new ECM, there is no start, but many icons are lite including the security light, when cranking. Is this situation due to an improperly tuned ECM?
background: installed A Team Turbo. Left boost solenoid plugged in. Started truck, seasoned turbo using the stock ECM. Truck ran just fine. Swapped out the stock ECM with a KOJO tuned ECM (so I'm told) through Leroy Diesel. I followed KOJO's installation instructions to the letter. Now...
I plugged the boost solenoid back in. Cleared the codes. Truck ran just fine. Next, I swapped out ECMS. I have the KOJO tune (so I'm told) trough Leroy Diesel. I followed KOJO's instructions to the letter for installing their tuned ECM. Now the truck will not start. Why!? Anybody know?
This is probably elementary to some, and I should have gathered more knowledge before I acquired these items. So, maybe somebody can give me the education I need. Turbo is installed (A team), ECM is not...yet. From my understanding, with these items, there is a process to installing both (you...
I installed the Ateam turbo today. Followed their directions for start up. I have not installed the Kojo tuned ECM yet. I did the new turbo start up with the stock ECM. After driving around slowly, the DTC P1656 "popped". I assume once I install the Kojo ECM that DTC will no longer show up...
Looking to cool down the transmission fluid. How effective is adding three extra quarts with an oversized pan. I do have the stock transmission cooler located in front of radiator, passenger side.
Just installed a pyrometer on the passenger side exhaust manifold on the flat spot. What kind of numbers should I get? It really seems to jump up there upon acceleration.
Got them. It all seems to boil down to who you get waiting on you. I got the bits from a store that told me they didn't have them. Came back another day spoke to another individual, and bang, handed them right to me. So, now I can do the job.
