    Truck doesn't want to rev over2500rpm

    Hey all, I have a problem that just started on the way home today. I use my truck pulling a landscaping trailer and i was pulling it today. For some reason it started going real flat at about 23-2400 rpm. It takes fuel great to that point and was fine this morning. After 22300-2400 it...

    fuel Leak

    Thanks all I'll check it out. Hoping it's an easy fix. I've found a number of posts regarding the fuel lines around the fuel filter and hoses nearby so hopefully this won't be a big deal. I just hadn't seen anything about a drain from the valley so I wasn't sure.

    fuel Leak

    Hey guys, I have a fuel leak I noticed the other day on my truck. It looks like it is coming from some kind of tube out the side of the engine or transmission case? I think it is just above the shift linkage. I think it may have been leaking for a long time but I thought it was oil as...

    Help! Dash light fuse blows immediately

    Well I think I found it. I replaced the headlight switch (bosch..lifetime warranty) and unhooked a tail light that was acting up. It's currently operating on a 15 amp fuse (only thing I had handy) so I reckon that got it. Got the new tail light ready to put on and a 20 amp fuse (correct size)...

    Homemade Manual Wastegate Controller Question

    I have been waiting on the gauge and boost bolt to be delivered so I can monitor boost before I mess with it for that very reason. Read about how easy it is to overboost in threads on this forum and the possible results. The whole open/closed thing just shows how much I don't know about...

    Homemade Manual Wastegate Controller Question

    I have read the sticky on installing a 10k pot...it even has a wiring diagram (like electronic diagram) that I don't really understand. Is there some directions somewhere that are a little dumbed down for a guy that doesn't read electronic diagrams? For example hook this color wire to this...

    Homemade Manual Wastegate Controller Question

    Thanks all I appreciate it! I was planning on doing the pump delete later on for sure. Ya it was probably me lol. I got the gauge yesterday and am hoping the bolt might be here today. I'm really wanting to see what it is doing. I can hear the turbo spool up when it's working and I hear...
