    Thanks

    I just want to thank all you guys who participate here for all the kindness and information you have shared with me over the last just shy of 2 years of my IDI-owning life.

    Made it cross country

    As some of you may know I had some problems with my rig right as I was leaving on a rather long drive. I got the electrical problems straightened out and hit the road. Well, almost 3000 miles later, I made it. Truck did great. I had to watch the temps on some of the many steep mountain grades...

    Big electrical problem

    :mad: I got an hour out today and the problems popped up, sending me back to the family spread outside Memphis. Apparently my headlight issues in the other thread are part of a bigger problem. There's now no power to about half of the positions in the fusebox. I lost constant 12v at the...

    Spam PM's

    Either somebody thinks I'm cute over the internet or we have a spammer sending PM's. Here's what a member named 'abigail' sent me- "Hello, I'm new here and just wanted to say "hi" How's it going? --- abigail http://abigail.freehostia.com" Thought one of you moderators might want...

    Headlight switch trouble

    Trying to get on the road across country Friday morning and the little things have started to break. This one, as stupid as it is, is pretty disabling. My headlight switch is not right. If I pull the switch all the way, 2 clicks, the headlights come on, but no driving lights or dash lights...

    These folks have a whole bunch of $10 0-15 psi gauges. They say BD on them but are made by ISSPRO. Get 'em while they're hot.

    Turbo woes

    As some of you may recall I have been having problems with a used factory turbo I scored and put on my truck a while back. Here's that thread- http://www.oilburners.net/forums/showthread.php?t=16390&page=2&highlight=wastegate Problems persist. My boost has been steadily getting harder to ring...

    Squirrelly turn signals

    Here's a weird one. I noticed a couple weeks ago that my turn signal indicators on the dash have been prooooolonged, so on the way home tonight I finally cared enough to look at the turn signals and they are a bit erratic though functional. When I first hit'em, they will go at their normal clip...

    Which wheels will interchange?

    These 16.5's are bumming me out. The tire options are so few and I'd really like something skinnier than these 33x9.75x16.5's will allow. So, I might poke around and see if I can turn up some used 16 inchers, like the factory Alcoas. What else will fit? Sizes/sizing? 8 x 6.5" bolt pattern right...

    factory/ATS y-pipe to up-pipe fit

    As some of you know I pulled the older style ATS turbo off my truck in favor of a factory unit off of a '94. I have been plagued by exhaust leaks at the y-pipe to up-pipe union. The y-pipe I have fits very loosely into the up-pipe, which I noticed when I test-fitted them before they went on...
