    Rear Brake Cylinder Replacement?

    Use the Napa #4637337 cylinders, they're larger than the Dodge 1 ton and fit perfect. Just give them the number, they don't need to know what it goes on, seems to just confuse them. I've changed out lots of Dodge 1 ton cylinders to the GM sized cylinders, everyone has been impressed with the...

    Seatbelt Indicator

    Joe, what happens when the timer fails is that it supplies power to keep the belts released when even when parked, this is what drains the batteries. You have to "sneak up" on it to check if this is happening by leaving the window open, if the door is opened the belts will release. The key must...

    AirFilter system

    Very big difference with turbo noise with the TAG. You also get faster spool up and a smoother running engine. The good folks at DPP will let you send it back for a full refund for the first 30 days. They haven't had many returns...

    Cold Weather Experiment

    I've quit changing over to synthetic PS fluid for the cold weather groans and now use Lube-Guard PS conditioner. Five bucks at any auto parts and you'll never hear the whine again.

    Most Miles?

    212k on my '95 and feel like it's just getting broken in. Besides modifications the only engine work besides regular maintenance has been replacing the rubber fuel hoses, starter contacts and water pump.

    Optimas - are they worth it?

    The best Optima testimonial comes from a welder friend who has a Red Top on his mobile Lincoln welder. The battery was dropped about five years ago and is missing the entire lower third of the case, been working flawlessly the whole time. Try that with a lead acid battery!

    Optimas - are they worth it?

Wish I could have back all the hours of my life that I wasted messing with corroded terminals and wiring. I'm running over twenty Red Tops in various trucks, tractors and farm...

    Starting While Plugged In?

    No problem running plugged in, in fact the manual for 24 valves recommends it. I leave my heater plugged in all the time (cheap power) and have gone up to ten days at a time without starting it, still on the stock block heater 210k and eight years later. Someone told me recently, not sure if I...
