Most likely pressure sensor, solenoid, or the HUEI pump.

Having engine problems. Check engine light came on and code 164-2 Engine -PID injection control pressure data erratic intermittent or incorrect. Wondering if any one is in the area I could park while I did the work. We are fully contained living, cooking, eating, toilet. Don’t need power or...

Chris, we will be at the flagstaff. Hope to see you there.

I’ll try to make it. My Daughter is getting married in Zion NP in October.

I installed a kit like this from amazon 5 ears ago and it’s still working. I use it at least 5 times a day. While we are traveling.

“Launch It” that’s funny! That’s like watching a space x falcon heavy take off. Honestly loosing the exhaust braking effectiveness is the worse and just want it bake. Before I rarely used the brakes. Now I’m always using them.

On the WTEC2 there is a manual lockup program option, used for oilfield I think. Auto-manual switch and engage-disengage switch. I suspect there is something similar in the wtec3 programming. That might get you some better slow speed ex brake performance, but you would have to be sure to...

Definitely sluggish in comparison. The 3.07 gears were super peppy off the start!

Ok, almost 6,000 miles running echo hubs with original gears, 3126 engine with a 330 hp program. Note: I weigh 27,800 lbs Oh and I had previously driven over 25,000 miles with the 3:07/ high speed gears and NO echo hubs. Update….. Love the noise reduction Love knowing everything is spinning...

I’m a Victron person.

https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/ctis-5-flashing-lights.217772/ Read that forum. I had this problem and it ended up being the valve body. Rebuilt it and everything started working.

No, most likely the CTIS system is not working and you can figure that out later. You can air the tires up like any other tire, there are valve stems. Holding air is another question.

Disconnect the CTIS controller. It doesn’t need to be plugged in for the vehicle to operate. If still having the problem start looking past the CTIS. Most likely a grounding or electrical problem. Mine had a loose wire on the starter solenoid.

Same here!

Super clean installation. Well done.

That explains a lot. Why she was slower to start and why there was more black smoke even after warming up. I think the overall conclusion is: Expect it to take longer to start, slight loss of power and not burning the fuel as efficiently causing e

No power loss? Yet! But just curious what starting it at higher altitudes will be like. Is it a concern or can I drive it to 20,000 feet with out concern?

I’m a flat lander from Florida driving an 2003 M1079A1 with a 3126B asking the question! As I’m currently parked at 8,800 ft above sea level. What is the maximum elevation our trucks can reliably start and operate? What effect does elevation have on diesel engines? Max elevation for the 3116...

Also an unbalanced drive shaft can cause it.

Oh and why you see bolts on the middle frame attaching to the bottom frame is because mine started as a M1078 then purchased an older M1079 and swapped the middle and top frame. Which had all the mounting points.
