    What's this cable on the dash?

    Looks like an ABS ECU, they are WABCO ECUs. ABS works well, they usually don’t fault and when they do it is usually the sensor starts to wander from the tone ring, all it takes is a punch and a light tap to reseat them.

    Synthetic lube efficiency report

    Thanks for finding that. I have always wondered why cars are using lighter oil. My guess is most automotive industries are using lighter oils in their cars and trucks to gain higher fuel efficiency. looks like the engine and transmission oils they went down to 0w-20. It makes since since it is...

    Truck surges when warming up?

    You can put a clear line between the water seperator to your lift pump to see if air is running through. I used vinyl hose but there is better materials you can use. My truck was loosing prime so it would run poorly till the air was purged out. If I cycled the primer pump before each start I...

    Cab heater

    I have an A1, with 4 hours of preheat via block heater and high idle with the exhaust brake in warmup it takes about 10 min to defrost the windshield and for the heater to produce decent heat. if you were missing a regulator it would take a very long time to warm up. It could be your temp gauge...

    Cab heater

    it would take about 30 min to check, drain about 5gallons of coolant, remove grill, seperate heater hoses open heater core valve and blow air through them or flush with a hose.

    Cab heater

    How is your coolant level? I flushed and filled my coolant via a vacuum fill system. You can also take your heater apart and check the cable to the heater core valve The heat works well in my truck and it can get uncomfortably hot even here in Alaska at 20 deg with no cab insulation.

    M1078 Transmission Problem

    What are your output speed sensor OHM readings? It sounds like your turbine and engine speed sensors agree, the 25-11 code is only produced if turbine and engine speed sensor are the same speed with output speed at 0 when it should be at the specific speed ratio. The output speed sensor is...

    LMTV Fuel Priming Problem After Filter Change

    Sound like you have an air suction problem. The drain hose should not leak fuel unless it is loose or damaged, you can change your water separator filter with a Baldwin BF1222. It is a single piece without the drain assy.

    1078a1 wipers wont return to "park"

    You might be able to just pull back your PDP and stick a mirror down to see if the linkage is damaged. Have you checked your wiper arm? The arm sits on a tapered shaft that has friction groves that hold it in place. If the nut holding the arm is loose it will just slip. Mine was damaged that is...
