I was thinking about that, and if you have the same number of wires just different plug it might be easy enough to get the plug and adapt the computer. It may be less effort to just find one that fits though. Call USA Auto Parts (210-623-1202, they are out south of town and have some super duty's. They should have the same plug.

Injector Install adventure
Thread forthcoming....
Wednesday- got my injectors from Ryan, while it started as a good/exciting day, it ended bad... I raced home (hadn't done that in awhile) and found two boxes on my doorstep. (One box-o-injectors and one a la reburned DP-Tuner.) I yanked the necessary parts out of the truck and managed to seat the injectors that night. So around 2:30 am, I changed the oil as I wasn't about to run 4,000 mile old oil through my nice, new injectors. I go to change the oil filter and CAN'T GET IT OFF!!! :-arrgh:-arrgh:-arrgh I had gone to Jiffy Lube the week before to change the oil since I didn't have the time to get dirty and do it myself and paid the price for it. Off to bed at 3:30 am (lost track of time) with my tail between my legs. (had to be up at 5:30 for work) Thursday-I dialed, yelled, and got someone to come out and remove the filter while I was at work. Once more, I race home excited that I would get to drive my truck again....once more, I was wrong. I pull all the glow plugs, hook the batteries up, cycle the key a few times to prime, and turn the key only to find that the starter is turning the motor VERY slowly; it's turning the motor, but seems like it's hit a bottleneck and can't turn any faster. :-arrgh Friday (today)- Running by autozone for a new starter, hopefully I'll have my truck back in time to get a few drinks with some friends tonight... |
That's a bummer, very frustrating. Hope you get up and running soon.

Hey Diesel! Don't forget to take off your frame ground and engine ground and wire brush the hell out of them on both the frame and engine and the wire!!!! Then put them back on and spray them with a sealant. |
And clean the battery terminals again. You'll get to drive her soon enough.

Last but not least procomp lift with fox resv. shocks I picked a little something up on the way home from work... Had it on my last truck and yanked it off before I sold it. Maybe I can get this on this weekend. We'll see. I hoping to find a five gallon tank instead of this one but it will work for now. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z...N/59baa50f.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z...N/9bc6f325.jpg |
TX, Thats a serious horn there
|
What the h___!!!
Where in the heck is that tank going to mount, and is the thing even legal?!?!
|
In my opinion a big truck needs a big horn. I could have used it a couple times this week, which got me wondering what I was waiting for. It's been sitting in my storage unit for a over a year now. Enough I say, time for action.
