guess that is what i will do since no one knows

 

and actually shipping is only $3

 

Pretty awesome destroying a $1375 emissions component without having fixed the problem. Now you pollute much more than everyone else and still have a broken truck.

Not trying to start a fight, just make an observation. Good call repairing the fuel line rather than forking over the dollars for a new one, please let us know if this takes care of your issue.

 

I know it was a dumb move Tom but i was desperate for a fix ..i really need the truck 100% ..my truck is my livelyhood...and quite a few reputable agreed that was the problem... so i went for it...i figured it was pluged since the truck has so many miles...on a side note..i just ran a full can of seafoam when the fuel light came on...approx 5 gallons...and burned 4 gallons with it in and the truck is about 95% now..plus truck over 8500 gvwr dont get emmissions in my area...i dont see how it is much different then the diesel guys running no cats and blowing smoke all over the place...and mine doesnt smoke

 

Hrmmm...the Sea Foam lends credibility to the idea that you're on the right track with the fuel filter. Glad to hear you're back to 95%, hopefully this is a cheap fix!

 

hope so too...she runs great up to 3/4 throttle and 4k shifts....anything over that and she bogs..

 

in other words...it pulls my 14k load no problem...but i still want it fixed right...

 

well i ordered both connections from rockauto...and they are not what i need...i dont know what they are for but not for connecting to the fuel filter.....bummer ...called tousley and the fuel line is $250 plus tax....looks like i gotta fork out the cash

 

Just chimed in to say my diesel passed emissions with flying colors with no cat, egr delete and a race tune

 

well, i figured out my problem!!!! i cleaned my old mass air flow sensor...but the guy at auto zone said he can almost promise that is my problem with both banks running lean....and said if that wasnt the problem that i could return the mass airflow sensor..and guess what...that fixed it!!!!...truck runs great now!!!...but i am still getting a hard/delayed shift 1-2 gear...only at WOT...if i run 7/8 throttle it shifts smoothly no problem...all other gears shift great at WOT...any help on this?

 

Good question...have you had the truck scanned with a capable scan tool?

 

only my scangauge II, my diablosport predator, and the autozone scan tool..

 

would a snap on scan tool from a decent mechanic shop show me something else?

 

It might, maybe someone Near you has an AutoEnginuity that will be able to read transmission codes.

 

thanks for the help as always Tom....im just glad i can hit 5000 rpms again
