Nope, not me, never make it as a health care worker. I'm bad to say what's on my mind, when it's on my mind and that doesn't work in that setting. I still think Euthanasia should be acceptable in the ER under the right conditions. And here lately, those conditions come around a lot more frequent.

Ahh, Dr. Barry has a nice ring to it, Dr. of Powerstroke troubleshooting. Don't have to be in the ER for that.

Jim, I'm glad you found it. I feel really bad about this. I should have checked things more closely. I know I got pulled away several times toward the end of the install. My Bad. I know better than to let something interrupt before the job is done. glad it was an easy find.

Barney

Barney, Please don't feel bad Barry and I even looked at it at his house and we both missed it there. Once again thank you for working with me on this. It was a pleasure to meet you and Cheryl and to do a bit of wrenching with you also. I look forward to meeting up with you again.

Jim

I haven't taken the time to learn the AE yet. I hope to spend some time this weekend with it. The truck runs too well for it to be much of anything. In fact we averaged over 9 mpg towing the trailer thru the Blue Ridge Mtns at 65-75 mph.

I averaged 8.9 on the way to RRE and 10 on the way back.
Wish I would have had the decel tune coming down Black Mountain, that was just a little bit scary.

Man, I tell you, that Decel tune is the stuff. I would hit it and the truck would slow to a point I would release it to gain speed back. I don't think I touched the brakes the entire way down the mountian. I was worried about EGT's but they dropped way down each time I use the Decel. It's a must for towing.
