    what clutch and flywheel is this

    If the bolts that come in the kit have it pre applied, they should work good like they are.

    Safe to use synthetic oil during summer?

    George, I don't see a problem, lots of big trucks run synthetic year round. Just curious what do you do in fairbanks. Hopefully I'll be headed back up in a couple of weeks.

    Installation question

    Wait on someone that has done it to chime in, I don't see why you will need to lift the cab, if you have the clip off.

    On the oil drain tube, did you check to see if enough oil would run through it, you may have to punch some holes in the baffle.

    to head stud or not

    You just have to remove the plastic housing, then you don't have to hold them in the head, the way I understand it.

    Built some new battery cables today

    If this is directed at me, I don't have any pics, Ed is on fte as the parts guy, he is with a dealer in washington and has good prices on the net for oem parts. A picture would look like the original cable.

    to head stud or not

    Crew dually has done his heads in the truck and uses studs, I belive he has to pull the studs though. If you decide to go with them follow the torque requirements they have.

    Strange problem, wants to die on cold idle

    Careful with removing the top cover, if installed incorrectly you can have a runaway condition, with no shutoff. Lcam has it right, but I wouldn't use tranny fluid to soak it in, it may cause a hard start after is sits for awhile. I would use a good diesel additive cleaner, diesel kleen, howes...

    I need input on what to do next...

    Have you done a compression test to see what your working with. Have you cracked the injector lines to find out which cylinder is causing the rough idle.

    Troubleshooting from the road - valve/rocker noise - before you lose an engine

    Just a suggestion, you might have an oil analasist run on your oil when you change it.
