    hpop for a 99

    cool guys:cheers: thanks for all your help!;Sweet once i get to a point where i can dry dock the truck for a while, i will do some lookin to see if it is the pump or just a bad seal. if i have to replace, i will prolly go with a 17* pump. would a 17* work on a 95? or would i need other...

    hpop for a 99

    ok, so what's the advantage of a 17* pump? i've seen some people asking what was needed to put them on, but never heard the difference.

    stacking chips

    ok, basically, chips and tuners do the same thing. both reconfigure the computer's parameters within the truck. so, a dp chip changes the same things that a programmer would. by stacking a chip with a programmer, you are sending two different signals to the puter.. this really confuses it and...

    hpop for a 99

    i thought it might just be a line or o-ring, but the mechanic told me it's probably the pump. he knew i would bring my own pump in, so he wasn't trying to make money off that, but it still seemed strangecookoo 95nomore.. is the early 99 pump the same as 99.5? mine's an early 99, which i'm...

    hpop for a 99

    wow, 1hour huh? the shop guy said it would take his helper all day! i'm not sure that it is the pump itself.. that's what he told me. i haven't been able to pinpoint the leak myself. if it's just a 1hour job, i might put an o-ring kit in it and see if that works. i found a few pumps on...

    hpop for a 99

    i need to know where i can purchase a replacement. the pump is physically located under the fuel filter and between lots of fun stuff to pull apart, right? i checked beans website, but only saw the stealth systems.. i can't afford that right now! besides, i think this truck is stayin pretty...

    OOPS!

    ok, i got the new turbo in yesterday, and started pulling the old one. i got all the plumbing loose, plus the two bolts on the pedastal. i forgot about the ebpv having an actuator arm on it. after some prying, cussing, lookin, cussing, bleeding, beerdrinking.. i finally found the armcookoo...

    OOPS!

    yeah, it's got 3.5" straight pipe now. just a k&n drop in filter till i get around to the 45* elbow for an open air filter. got the filter, just need the elbow. i thought the stock downpipe was pretty free on this truck. i need to find the post on gutting the ebpv and "fixing" the wastegate...

    OOPS!

    cool tonka.. i think he's in utah. i've talked to him before, but we never discussed hometowns!LOL he said there wasn't much he could do to improve that turbo.. i was hoping to get an upgrade out of the deal, but i aint shellin out the bucks for a BB turbo:puke: oh well, i'll see if he can...

    OOPS!

    unfortunately, the early 99 is pretty much a one year turbo. the 94-97 wont work unless someone has ideas on bypassing the wastegate on my truck. the 99.5+ is a completely different setup. thanks for the thoughts, though. i talked to ron, who has several powerstroke turbos on ebay. he has...

    OOPS!
