What I bought to get me the sensors will leave me with that same EGT kit as spare/resell. hoped to recoup a couple bucks for a kit that costs the same total as just a pressure sensor and sensor interface.

Yeah ZERO clue what it was 100.000 miles ago and if that’s same or worse.

Factory low pressure warning is 6psi so I figure over 10-12 is hopefully non fatal.

Gauge is just showing 40-60 at all times no matter what. So dumb. But I should have expected it.

I really thought it was a real number since it DOES move with rpm. That’s just… tricky. deceitful. rude.

If you have that other wiring left over let me know. It’s cheap to get just a pressure sensor but the extra interface for sensors is $177 itself. Silly. Too bad I can’t just make the dash gauge tell truth - but the dash is definitely failing intermittently so maybe better to bypass it anyway.

15-18 hot idle. 50-60 hot cruise at 2,000 rmp

I think it was a dash snafu. Will be interesting to see how much difference fresh oil and filter makes. Clean fuel filters is the difference between 7-10 and 2-3 psi…

this little one has been passed around a few guys in the club.  mikemike ended up with it, and hadent got it up and running yet so i grabbed it to get it going and its on loan.  i had been looking for one for a while, and the learning and process will transfer to when i find a  deal on a bigger one.


just picked it up friday, only have a day into it so far. 

2nd superduty 60 axle picked up and another 1350 front CV drive shaft

Steering gear arm bent to shape.  PCM mount done.  Couldn't find a good price on a 4L80e shifter kit, so bought a eBay 350 one and modded it.  More floor and interior body work.  Ordering next round of parts,  gas tank, battery,...
