    Jockey tank to fuel tank plumbing

    Long story short - I have a ball valve on my aux tank that controls fuel flow out of it.

    Wiring Woes

    Ha the "question " is who has a good wiring diagram for this model truck/transmission combo. Trans symptoms are: When blinker applied at HWY speed I notice a blip in RPM. It was felt first, then varified on the tach too. When coasting or cruising then apply throttle the trans sometimes will...

    Wiring Woes

    So, before I go about doing Injectors, IP and GPs I want to know what it going on with my transmission. I believe it to be electrical, as the issue is intermittent and not isolated.
