    Computer Chip

    Performance Chip Got it from Autochipsdirect.com called the Power Box. It has two wires in which you clip onto two of your wires (color coded) going to the air filter.

    Computer Chip

    Just curious. After I replaced my injectors for my 2002 2500HD I ordered a chip from a company that only does performance chips. After installing it and two tanks full of diesel there was no improvement. The company suggested switching the wires in which I did but still no improvement of gas...

    My Mechanic Says Different One of my mechanic friends thinks the 5.3 gets better mileage and is a great motor. However he also thinks the 6.0 is a good motor also. I may just bite the bullet and change out the injectors. My 2500 is a work truck and not in perfect condition but not bad...

    I thought $300 was to high also. I will check around for someone who may have the scanner needed although from all that I have heard it boils down to R&R the injectors. Remans would cost me $250 per which is a good chunk of change. I don't need a "power house" just a dependable work truck. I...

    I have been told that also. I may put it up for sale for $4,000 and look for a 5.3L Silverado. A mechanic friend says that is a great motor.

    Thanks. The local Dealer wants $300 to test them. I have a friend who works on Cummins and perhaps he has the tool needed. I really hope to just replace the bad ones and not all due to cost. I am also looking for a used 5.3L 2500HD in case I want to get rid of my Duramax.

    That is what I am hearing. Thanks for the reply. What is a balance rate test? I don't want to spend 4-5 thousand on all injectors but if that is it I was hoping to just replace the one or two that is bad.

    Question: Service 4 Wheel Drive

    It would be nice but I doubt so simple. My 4 Wheel drive works good. That light coming on maybe twice a year does bother me. I will take it to a mechanic I know next week to see if there are any codes. Now and then I will start it up and it's in 4 wheel low. I hold 2 wheel and 4 weel low...

    Question: Service 4 Wheel Drive

    Thanks guys. The indicator does not stay on constantly. Just appears maybe once or twice a year. I may have someone read the computer just in case but I don't think it will show a code. I do follow maintenance to the T with all my vehicles. My Duramax has been a great truck thus far. It...

    Question: Service 4 Wheel Drive

    :confused: Periodically I get Service 4 Wheel Drive on my 2002 Duramax 2500HD. It works just fine. What is there to service? I get the fluid and filters changed when due via mileage reading.

    GM Parts Direct quoted $315 for my 2002 2500HD 6.6 Turbo. Part number they gave me according to my VIN was 89060639. Looks like I will have to spend close to that $400!:(

    Help: Fuel Gauge Problem

    Fuel Gage I did find a mechanic on The Diesal Page who suggested I ohm connector C-152 first with a reading of 240 when full and 40 when empty. I will do that first. I may then run fuel out as much as possible, drop the tank and see if I can clean the sending unit and then move the float up and...
