Why you need weight?
You got a real bed now and 4x4. You only need weight if you don't want to play in a RWD.

Truck still skips, haven't had time or money but every time I replace a misfiring coil it gets better. So far 4, 2, and 5 have been replaced now it's looking like 6, mode 6 data is showing number 6 having 9 misfires, now that's not much BUT all the rest are reading zero.
It has gotten MUCH BETTER. When I first found the skip it was atrociously mind blowingly bad, you'd think the clutch was going to shake itself apart, now it's just an annoyance, after I fix that and get a tuner life'll be better. I've been thinking about going with 5 star but am a little uncomfortable about going with someone who is so far away, I'd like to find someone in the NE area that knows how to get the most out of the 3 valve without blowing it up.

Yes I need a little bit of weight back there. It is 100% better with the sheet metal and not the flat bed !! A cap would probably help, but for the things I use it for, it wouldn't be practicle.

Sounds like you have it on the run Pat!! Have you looked at the Diablo tuners? Two of the guys here run them. They get their tunes on the web, and then download them to the tuner.

Good morning Granite Staters, bomb drivers and assorted riff raff. They say we should see 2-4 today! It would be nice, but I have my doubts. Be safe out there today boys.

What makes you think that Les?
I just found out I have to buy a harness for my plow. It's damaged bad and not working. Ugh!
Should have it tomorrow. Hopefully
