I've got a core ds4 that had a good optic in it. It's yours for the ride if you want it.

Yes!

 

[THEFERMANATOR]

Yes!

PM me your address(again), and I'll try and get it dug out and boxxed up. I also have some sensors I can throw in. As you've probably seen from facebook, I'm pretty booked, so it will probably take me a few days to get it done, but I'll get it.

 

[DieselCash]

I sent you a message on Facebook.

 

[DieselCash]

Well I know now why people convert these too mechanical. She left me stranded!
I ordered the GMTD Scan from Leroy last night. I also ordered the cable.
I am going to guess that either the CPS went out or a wire came partially unplugged.
It was acting up last night. I would maybe get a mile or two down the road and then it would go into limp mode.

Time to get my hands dirty!

 

[DieselCash]

Not sure what fixed it, but she is back to the living!
A free fix beats the hell out of one that cost you.

I can't wait to play with the GMTD Scan tool!!!

Crazy self fixing stuff like that is usually bad electrical connections, and unfortunately usually returns.

 

[DieselCash]

True, very true. I unplugged and cleaned every connection off the pump I could get.
One day, the culprit will show it's ugly head.

There was just about everything you could need in that box I sent you short of a spare PMD. Unfortunately that is what normally causes the mysterious shuttting off, and self fixxing itself.

Yes, Thanks again!!!!
I am trying not to use what you sent till I get the eye swapped out.
Then I will try to track down what is causing my headaches.

All I really want is the A/C to work. Even that has been fighting me every step of the way.

 

[Will L.]

A/C?!? In Texas? They allow that there? I thought Texas tough rule # 7 was when it’s hot, sweat big like a man!

That is exactly what I have been doing since I got this truck.

 

[DieselCash]

Can someone explain exactly where the passenger side ground cable goes from the battery.
Mine is connected to one of the turbo drain bolts on the block.
I feel this might be causing some of my issues.
explanations would be great!
A picture would be awesome!!!!!!!
Thanks,

I thought it went to a stud on the intake, but its been a long time since I had a 6.5l.

 

[ak diesel driver]

is it the same as a 94 or a 96+

 

[DieselCash]

I have no idea where it goes. I do know that I don't like where it is know.

Intake, timing cover, starter brace bolt... are all good. I try and avoid cooling system parts due to corrosion and induced current in coolant. Oil is an insulator and thus turbo drain isn't the best. Leaks and bad connection...

Thanks! I will try the starter brace bolt. I agree the oil drain is covered in oil and is being leaked on constantly.

If I remember I'll check my 99 &96&94 when I get home

On my 94 the drivers side battery grounds on alternator bracket, passenger side grounds on one of the a/c compressor bolts
