I've been having the same symptoms for a year or more now. I switched the tps with the Dorman replacement and it "solved" the problem. 6-8 months later and same symptoms. Decided maybe the replacement was bad and went with another Dorman. now 6-8 months later the problem is back. I don't know if...

I kinda figured it wouldn't since I see them run on SD's all the time. Thanks

Hey guys. I'm toying with the idea of jumping to 35's and I want to put some MT Classic II's on the old girl as well. I love the way they look but they are lug centric. On their website they say they provide hub centric rings for GM applications. Are there rings for our trucks? I just don't want...

I looked at the invoice and there is a charge for like 6ish bucks under the line "oil additive" I assumed that was the friction modifier. Would it hurt to throw more in just in case?

I got a wierd shudder when I take off from a corner turning right especially. It doesnt last long but it feels like something is slipping. I dont have it when accelerating straight. The truck is an auto. A little backstory, i had my trans and diff oil changed at the dealership and i drove it...

Well I'm pretty sure it was the TPS giving me fits again. I got another Dorman one just because I was curious.. and it seems to have fixed the issue. I haven't driven very much with the new one but it acts like a totally different truck.

Well it appears that the power service had no effect. It acted up pretty good on the way to work. I took it out before I drove home because it pisses me off when it acts up. Anyways I ordered a new TPS from Dorman thru Amazon, same way as the last one. I figured it made the problem stop for a...

That's what I figured but I've never had to use that. As much as I love my dinosaur those 6.4's look better and better...

Well I went to tape my harness wires up and I couldn't find any wires rubbed through when I actually took that connector apart and could clearly see the underside of the wires. So I guess that's off the list. I picked up some of the power service anti-gel and put some in at work. It acted...

Well I'm gunna have an admission of ignorance here.. I don't add anything to my ULSD.. :doh: I've hear people just dump a little bottle of 2 cycle oil in.. How much should theoretically go with a full tank? Or is there better options as far as additives go?

That's what I'll do then. I'll hopefully get the taping done tomorrow after work in the convenient heated shop but the shrink wrap wont happen till I get a hold of my dads heat gun. Really appreciate the help guys!

Well kind of. I have the group of wires taped up as a group.. Maybe I need to tape them individually and then maybe put some plastic over it?

Those are the parameters I had in mind. I just need to find out a way to. I'm on the verge of buying AE so maybe I oughta. No I havent touched the tank yet. I dont really have the ability while I'm here at my place with a damn carport but I should be going back to my parents for a few days for...

It hasnt hardly been below freezing except for a few days/nights and this problem was happening before the weather ever got semi-cool. The dealership strikes agian.. Had an appt. for 9.. well the new guy I apparently talked to didn't know there wouldn't be any diesel techs working Saturdays so...

Did that too when the water pump went out. Same before and after.
