These posts all point to the same soultion. Run a synthetic (research your own!) with a bypass filter system (research your own!). Reduce engine...
Air in/out on the '05s is pretty good. Is the engine broken in yet?
The first time I changed the oil (500 miles), when I unscrewed the filter black oil ran down its sides and I had to be careful about not spilling...
Man, I'm glad it's not just me! :doah: This engine has Jekyll/Hyde personalities. :eek: Sometimes Dr. Jekyll kinda' schlogs along,...
Are those clear lenses? :confused:
Right or wrong, the answer I got today from someone in trucking was that if your combined gross (truck + trailer) exceeds 21,000 lbs you become a...
Call it something besides "pull-off".... :doah:
"when folks don't use their heads..." Gee, when's that? The first day I took my truck to work, some bonehead was "helping" me unload. I came...
More amazing every day ;) That accessory plug-in wakes you up better than coffee :eek: ! (did I say that out loud?) :doah:
Someone told me to keep my trailer gross under 10,000lbs because the towing/securing requirements would be less demanding. Is this so? I'd like to...
Yeah, now it just feels GOOD :D ! Like a real truck SHOULD waytogo ! At night, I want to go out and sleep in it so I can wake up and listen to...
The Japanese machines are very well engineered and built. I had an '81(?) Datsun King cab that never had a problem, and ran forever (300,000...
Did my first tow this weekend, @6,000lbs of boat and trailer + 3 men and gear. Was having trouble the week before with low end power, dealer...
Not completely normal, but better. I still think those symtoms are odd. The service guy and the mechanic both feel that engine break-in and the...
How'd you guess? Dealer ran a diagnostic and found all o.k., with programming up-to-date. Also did a boost test on the road. I had just topped...
I spent my first 12 working years in the typesetting/printing/graphics industry in NYC, the last 2 as Type Director at a large advertising agency....
I carry 5 gallons around in a steel jerry-can. It'll get poured into the truck and replaced every couple of months. I learned that trick when...
:stir: I like the idea of doing the rockers, and the top of the bed rails and gate too, but.... I'd rather have a pop-in liner any day. Drop...
Just past 1,500 miles and the powerband suddenly changed. The torque and "rush" it made from 1,600 rpm to 2,200 rpm has disappeared, leaving only...
Tried the Power Service/Marvel Mystery oil combo the other day, right past the 1,000 mile mark on the odo. I used 16 oz. of each, added to a full...
