    About the cat...

    Ok, nevermind. I found out that there is a cat delete pipe so that just about answers my questions. But here is a new one...Does the turbo sound get annoying while in the highway for long periods of time?

    About the cat...

    I'm fixin' to order an MBRP exhaust kit (turbo back). So here's the deal, I don't want to get the offroad type (no cat) but I have some questions about it. I want to hang on to the cat just in case I can't pass a vehicle inspection because I'm not in the "good ol' boy" network. I haven't...

    I'm back...We got a kill!

    Made it back from RIMPAC. If you don't know, its the bigest muti-national war game thing. All that means to me is more time at sea. We were defending country Blue and protecting the aircraft carrier from country Orange. We had to watch out for Orange submarines. We shot one too (pretend of...

    biodiesel found in Honolulu

    I was at the Staind concert last night and saw a PSD in the parking lot with some building company logo and also it said powered with biodiesel.:wow I wanted to leave a note on the window with my phone # so he could call me let me know where to get it but it would have been a long walk back to...

    What should I do?

    Thanks for the input. Found a big ol' bottle of biocide at West Marine. So after I run the tank low in the morning I'll poor in some and fill er up. I think it said to double it up the first tank or two just to make sure. I think I should read up on it some more. Doesn't sound like it will...

    shifting out of reverse

    I've got the auto tranny and when I shift from reverse to park it makes a noise. Its not loud but it just doesn't sound right. I have been shifting to neutral first then to park and from reverse to neutral its very faint. Is this a normal thing or is something jacked up in there? I haven't...

    What should I do?

    Thanks for the tips. There are plenty of marine stores out here for the fishing/sail boats so I'm sure I can find some stuff there. I won't have time to get any window shades this time but will get some when I get back. Now about those airline tickets:roflmao ...how am I going to afford to...

    What should I do?

    So I get (ok, I'm forced) to get underway here soon and I have a few questions about what to do with my PSD. I read in another thread about biocide. Should I add that to the tank when I don't get to drive it for about 2-3 months? It sounds like I'll have a few critters in there if I don't...

    First Oil Change

    I haven't changed mine yet either so if anyone has some preferred oils to use you'd help me out too. Maybe even some lessons learned from oil changes to help the newbies out.

    Latest Recall

    I'm not a big fan of the lag either. I'm going to have to get something to fix that soon. I've made a few "runnin with the scissors" moves and the truck almost took too long to red rocket down the road.

    Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel, Myths and Rumors Debunked

    You know, Hawaii was trying to go to straight ethanol fuel out here for the gassers. No more unleaded is what they wanted. I can't understand why they are so worried about emissions over here when it all just get carried away by the trade winds. Out of sight, out of mind, right? I guess the...

    Help! Where do I put the egt probe?

    Shoot, looks like I was a day late and a dollar short on this one. I could have helped out but have been spending so much time at work, not by choice of course. Electronics troubleshooting is my middle name. A multi-meter is useless if you don't know how to use it. I recommend before doing...

    Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel, Myths and Rumors Debunked

    Hope what you say is true. Doesn't sound too bad anymore. I was beginning to think maybe buying my PSD wasn't such a wise choice. Then I remembered that I had wanted it for about 8 years and thought, "oh well". I might run bio once I get stateside anyway if its any cheaper. I'll just have...

    Best Slogan voting

    I voted for Texas too. Too bad they don't link you to a page that shows how the polls look. Who's in the lead I wonder?

    I think I would get a gun...

    I don't think I'd need to unleash my Rem. 300 ultra mag. on them. I'd just run them over with my PSD on the way to Starbucks. But of course a few shots may have to get fired just for the heck of it. :guns:

    After market guages???

    Not really sure what you mean there but the plan is to install the guages now and in a few months install the edge juice platinum stuff. I'm going to wire them up independent of each other. So that means I'm going to be drilling holes in the exhaust two times. I might wait until I get the...

    purchase advice on GM and Ford diesels

    I had a '99 GMC Sierra , it was a gasser though (6.0L), but the only thing that I miss about that truck was the air conditioner. That AC worked just as good as the day I bought it. After a while you would have to turn the dial a little into the red even on the hottest days. My PSD's AC isn't...

    Just finished it up...wow.

    Here is my question about the system. How do the pipes go together? I assume that you get a bunch of pipes clamps or something like that. I would feel better if it was all welded in place. Would a professional weld it or what? I just don't know mush about the install and want to make an...

    I love my Power Stroke!!!!

    Yep, they sure do say "bra" out here. You here it most from the shipyard workers, "Second shift, bra." That phrase is used most often when first shift is sitting around being lazy and somebody from ship's force asks about the status of a job.

    After market guages???

    So how about drilling a hole in the manifold? I've got the latest issue of Diesel Power and it shows a good spot to drill a hole in the manifold. Forgot what engine it was for. Anyway, about that, do I need to remove the manifold? There will be metal flakes in there when I'm done. I don't...

    Oh Crap!!

    WooHoo!!! Heard that the Army base sold diesel so after work I :burnit over there to check it out. They have it for $3.16 a gallon. That's way better than $3.44. I saw that low sulfer sticker on that pump but I don't recall it being on the pumps out in town. Any advice on additives and...
