    American Sniper

    I'm not much of a reader, but any of you guys are looking for a good book, Id highly recommend reading American Sniper. It's Chris Kyle's Autobiography, and walks you through his time as a Seal Sniper. Very good book about one of the most deadly american snipers in documented history.

    p0647 on startup???

    Anybody ever see this before? seems to do it when I remote start the truck, but not all the time. Seems like if its been sitting for awhile it will pop the code when I use the remote. It just started about a week ago and i'm wondering if it's related to me washing the engine bay???

    New build underway

    Wish this was an engine build thread, but this is my 2nd favorite toy. Stripped machined billet lower made by Quentin Defense and a Vltor Mur-1s. I opted to go with no forward feed. I didn't think to get a picture of the right side of the upper, so here's the manufacturers picture.

    So after I found my xfer case fluid needed changed I grabbed oil to change the Tcase and both diffs. I also one of those hand pumps to help push the fluid. Every time I pumped it, fluid pissed out of the top of the plunger. I did the xfer case and rear diff and made one hell of a...

    Allison 6sp: Fluid color made me poop a little....

    I dropped my drive shaft while putting my lift pumps in, and noticed the fluid that came out of the drive shaft was pretty dark... it wasnt exactly brown but it was a dark gold, so immediately I started worrying about the trans. Long story short the fluid in the trans is still nice and red...

    got a real surprise with my AirDog II

    I've really been fighting with this new AirDog. After I snapped the 1/8" fitting off in the base and venting my frustration all over the garage, I tried backing the fitting out with an easy out. Wasn't even worth my time. The hole is so close to the edge of the base I was literally just...

    V8 Scanning

    Guys, can anyone point me in the right direction. I'm tired of flashing with version 8 and then jumping back into v7.5 to scan. I see a lot of PID's in version 8 scan section but I don't see some channels like actual rail pressure, and a pre loaded pid list like v7.5 has. I poked around...

    A buddy of mine bought an 01 with 174k on the clock. It's got quite a few mods including 240hp II injectors, unknown sized cheetah, trans, ancient lift pump, and it doesn't have head studs. It's only running roughly 30psi of boost. Well the issue I have is it blows coolant. I'm obviously...
