Here is a video with the difference in idle between the Daily Driver tune and Stealth tune. With my old tunes the truck would adjust itself and recover from the quiet tune but this just stays nice and quiet.
For reference the click you hear is the buttons on the Hydra Switcher.

Blew off a coolant line at one of the tee's for the WVO conversion. Replaced held in place with a hose clamp and good to go. Oil still crystal clear, coolant level good and trans fluid right where it should be. No drips under the truck after three days parking on cardboard.

That's the original reservoir. It was in good shape still. Just cleaned it out.

Jason, I'm all up for a trip to the North GA mountains... Let me know if you plan the GtG and I'll try to come if u have the fuel money. And like the other three or four guys said, I need the veggie conversion for these types of trips lol.
Edit: oh yeah, great job guys, that thing looks great.

Had to add a few things since we put it back together. Finally got the hoses that connect from the engine to the fuel pump and return line. Man, those bugger are $$$.
Also had to replace a fuel pressure sender, keep blowing them up so Isspro sent a stainless steel one this time. I have to give them credit, I've had one fuel pressure gauage, one collant temp gauge, three fuel pressure senders go bad and they replaced everyone no questions asked!!!
Finally had to switch out a boost gauge. It only read to 35psi and apparently that's not high enough. So now a brand new EV2 60 psi gauge is in the hole. So far I've seen 43psi ....

May 11th & 18th weekends I will be on this for sure. Also closing in on an Excursion donor, so there will be PSD projects here for the foreseeable future... I'd like to say the new X will be ready for RRE, but Swagger has a better chance at this point.
