The electrician came out on thursday and installed all of the transfer switch stuff to make our MEP-003 able to power the whole house (which is the nicest electrical work ive ever seen). Been running it every day since. Pretty flawless. It pulled 110% and more load for various amounts of time no...
How original do you want to stay? Cause If you want it to run well without much work, I'd just get an Edelbrock intake and Holley 4 barrel or even Edelbrock carb. More HP and simplicity.

Power Service has a diesel addtitive for winter conditions. PS is just good stuff in general. But unless it is REALLY cold where you are you should be fine even with non winter diesel.
Will
Yep thanks! There you go....I knew it was relatively low for what it is. I have only used the pintle on mine for a commerical log splitter. I used a tow strap to my d rings on the bumper to tow the truck and a jeep.
Will
Yeah it definitely could. I need to add a trans cooler (im doing this next weekend) for real towing though. You might want to look into that if you havent already. The trans "cooler" isnt very good stock.
Will
Wow that is pretty considerable. That is a lot of weight (I work on a hay farm so Ive seen some towing rigs lol).
Im pretty sure, dont quote me, but the tow rating is like 3000 pounds or something. I dont know, All I know is that Ive towed much more no problem.

Changed the balancer with cscmc1's tool! It worked flawlessly (thanks again, itll be up soon). Wow did the 36,000 mile balancer needed to be changed. The rubber was completely shot, wavy on the front and torn on the back. It runs so much more smoothly now, especially at RPM's.
I used the NAPA...
Muahahahaha!!!! Dont worry I wouldnt ever try it, I dont even have a deuce! I was kinda just gauging the ridiculousness of how beastly deuces are....and I like that rule "dont flat tow something bigger than the tow vehicle"
Will
Heres another quick question, another capability question. Could a 2003 Duramax tow a deuce? I know a friend that uses one to tow that much pretty routinely. Like I said, I wouldnt actually do this, but Im just wondering.
Will
Yeah I was wondering about the braking too. It aint really designed for that lol. And that is scary, busted a tow bar with a deuce.....that could end very poorly.

Hello. I just have a real quick question. Could an M1028 flat tow an M35A2? Ive towed a 6000 pound Chevy C30 no issues, and I could imagine it could tow two of them. I dont have any plans to do this, but its kinda just a "would like to know for my own knowledge" question. Of course the M1028...
Ok this might be a little bubba but I ran it with my wire for the relay, in a conduit, through a rust hole in my floor:grd: it is on the driver side near the rocker. When I fix the floor hole for real, I'm gonna cut a hole in and run it where it is not, under the sill plate up to under the...
Hahaha dang I completely forgot to take them. You guys are gonna have to wait till Saturday! [thumbzup]
And I mounted it on the cab roof because it would be most secure (most magnet surface area) and because of the most ground plane. Also nothing to interfere and reflect the signal (SWR)...
Temp sensor did the trick. It is like a new Duramax now! Literally once you do a single cold start normal cycle, the wait light doesnt even come on any more if the engine is remotely hot. It's good to go, works perfectly.
Thanks,
Will
Alright. Cb radio installed and perfect. I used a relay to do the job - Wired it real nice with conduit and proper connectors and zip tieing it off. It is like a factory job. I had to cut about 2 inches out of the antenna to set the SWR but shes all good now, transmissing and receiveing at plus...
