We send our condolences for your loss.I sold mine ;(
Finally did the FDC bypass and found a I had a loose fitting on the turbo for the manifold heater that was causing me to lose some boost. , ( I think?) . The truck is running much better now, I can actually keep up with traffic in my area.
A question about the FDC bypass, what are folk using for fuel line from out of final filter to hydraulic head, my lines are a touch too stretched right now after implementing the FDC bypass. I wish they were just 2 inch's longer, (insert joke here), The fuel line I found at my local True Value is too malleable I think to hold form. I know it's supposed to work without replacing lines but PFC Schmuckatelly must have measured just a bit short.
So I have read up on the heater installs and such. I plumbed mine like so:
Green and red to heater. What I am wondering is can I use the purple and yellow ports for a coolant filter? And do I need to change the green port the to lower port in the lower right of the photo, on the water pump? Thanks In advance.
Don't have a heater so put filter like this

He has the heater hoses connected to the wrong places to start with. If your doing a heater AND coolant filter it's dfferent than what you're showing.So I have read up on the heater installs and such. I plumbed mine like so:

Can't control all the nastys with a pressure washer without setting up a containment system.Use a pressure washer!
This is my system and it works well. The drums gets cleaned out with paper towels, then put in the parts washer. Spindles, backing plate, shoes, etc. get soaked with a degreasing solution and pressure washed.Use a pressure washer!
This is an issue. Buy the cheap clear plastic sheets you use when you're painting inside your house. Lay it flat, back the truck over it, jack it up, do the job and when you're done, wrap up the debris in the sheet and dispose of it at your hazmat landfill or whatever is appropriate.Can't control all the nastys with a pressure washer without setting up a containment system.
