    Diesel Fuel additives.

    Not sure if it started yet, I'm away at work for another week and won't know until I get home next Wed. Hopefully it's still OK as I mentioned it is a mix of Summer and Winter fuels.

    Diesel Fuel additives.

    Hey folks. I have an outside 600 gal fuel storage tank, there's a mix of summer and winter blends of diesel, it just got to -5F here (AB) and it looks like it's gonna stay, will definitely get worse in the next few months. I didn't need to use fuel out of the tank recently but if/when the need...

    Pulled out the VB when doing a service on my 2015 and installed BD Diesel 68protect kit then got. TCU tune with higher line pressure. Been good so far.

    2022 3500 transfer case fluid

    I dug a little deeper (not particularly here but did my research on internet reading a variety of replies on different sites). It appears these TCs came prefilled with Multi Vehicle ATF from factory. Some folks have done oil analysis, sent a sample of BW and a sample of ATF+4 fluid to the lab...

    Towing with new 6.4L

    Nah won't tell him that. He will find out for himself that the range anxiety is very real. I never camp on the campgrounds and when going camping I'm gone for days moving in the bush from one spot to the next. Not saying gasers can't do the job but they do it at the expense of enormous gas...

    Trickle Charger On '22 Cummins

    Too bad but too late I guess. Engine compartment IS NOT waterproof! On my 2015 I've had a partially plugged up heater core (fixed it now) and the 1st winter I've had it I ended up bungee strapping a power inverter to the top of the drivers side battery - there was enough room in there, and then...

    Ram 2500 5th wheel prep kit - P/N

    Don't worry about mopar part numbers, go aftermarket. When I ordered my 2019 3500, I've ordered it with a GN/5th wheel prep package and it arrived without. Dealer after confirming the f... up, was trying to swing me to install one or the other and I kept saying I wanted both as that is what I...

    Hemi versus 7.3

    Just did a trip from AB to Yellowstone and back home, 1800 miles. DEF was 7/8 full when started, about 1/4 left when got back home, yes the consumption was a lot higher than when driving unloaded but if someone runs out of DEF they shouldn't be driving at all, the stuff is sold everywhere...

    Grid Heater Bolt Failure

    Breather is OK it just sits there, if and when it starts seeping oil, I'll deal with it, just didn't want all that crap going into my turbo. I'll be changing out the filter when it's time to do so, they're fairly cheap and last a while.

    Grid Heater Bolt Failure

    I installed the BD kit on my 2015 (pics), yet to do it on my 2019 (have kit for it too sitting and waiting). Nut on 2015 looked intact but the price of the kit was worth the piece of mind so I don't need to worry about it ever again. While at it I cleaned out all the intake soot and removed a...

    Fuel ‘Economy’?

    OP should mention SRW trucks, duallies are totally different animal with different gears

    BD vs PPE deep transmission pan for 68RFE

    No this is for my 2500 truck. I did tranny fluid change on my 3500 (AISIN) it was a clean job.

    Transmission issue

    Not only that, with the oil pump off (when engine is off) it will read wrong. Dipstick should have cold and hot marks on it, so read accordingly.

    Transmission issue

    Wrong, it should be running to show the correct transmission fluid level.
