Good morning Jim.

Good morning Dennis. Another nice day here too. About 60 to start.

Good morning Gerry.

Good morning Dave. Friday cannot arrive soon enough.

That's what we are doing also.

No! Slacker...LOL

Good morning Dale.

Good morning Trot.

I can't say that is the voltage while cranking, I should have bright the meter around to watch it. But it was spinning good. No smoke or smell really either. I'm hoping just the cps and not the injector driver module

Hope it all goes good for you. The project that never ends it seems like.

I hate to see them have trouble but it all seems to familiar when I think back to the one I had that was always something going wrong with it.

My next truck will be at least the 6.7 but that will be probably 10 yrs before I can afford a used one! LOL I don't care for the looks of the '08-'10 trucks. I am liking not having payments on my truck so I will hold on to it for a while.

My dad is checking out the batteries today tonight I will check cranking volts.
