P0238 will shut it down. That was why I mentioned codes before. It looks like it just laid down after it lit.
Lets play the guessing game

Yeah, you were right. :thumb: I wasn't by the truck and until I was able to call AJ and ask him I assumed it didn't have any codes since he didn't mention it to me. It is all AJ's fault I swear!
Well AJ seemed to get my defuel issue fiqured out. Here are 2 videos from this weekend in Adal, Iowa.
6800lb Class-Full Pull

8000lb Class-294.3 feet

When I weighed in I was at 6822lbs however I had my girlfriend in the truck and she is right around 120 so I would say I was pretty close to 6700lbs or so. I even had my weight bar on with no weights however this things weighs an easy 200lbs. I am not sure how I got the truck this light but we didn't cut weight anywhere. Truck is in stock OEM body confiquration. I also have a 150lb pulling hitch in the rear.

good runs Joshy! Getting it figured out for sure. that first run you had some great speed going. what's up with the smoke coming on heavy and then going away as you get down the track?
IDK...conservative PW and boost???
Perhaps if I did a full throttle run that would help too. After reviewing my logs, I was never at 100% throttle for any length of time. I do know I was very skiddish, nervous, and worried about the end result so perhaps that is why I never stayed at full throttle.
Pulled twice last night in the 7500lb and 8300lb class
Here is video of my first pull

Then here is video of the second pull where I was a moron and left the gear selection in "d" not "3" so it shifted to fourth and stopped me short.

I didn't do all that bad in the first class compared to the built motors, I got 309 and the winner was 329 or so. Yes I lost but I am happy with the way my stock motor truck runs considering the amount of fuel is being put to it.

If I can find a ride I will. I would drive it down but if I break that is way too far away from home.
Well, not so good this week. Went to my friends shop where they parked my truck after unloading it from the low boy trailer and proceeded driving down the interstate to head home and I get a phone call from the girlfriend who was following me. She says "your truck is spraying some liquid all over my car" so I pull over and get out, fuel tank is hanging and now has a hole in the bottom of it. It leaked fuel over a half mile before she realized it and called.
So I call my buddy from work and ask him to meet me at our place of business to drive the rollback out to get my truck. I was soo worried that the cops, hazmat, and EPA would be there because I had a full tank of fuel that leaked in a rut on the side of the interstate. Needless to say, no one was there and we loaded my truck and booked it to a empty parking lot to tie it down. :spit:
So now I am trying to decide if I want to do a fuel cell or a stock replacement. FML

The second pull seemed to be a way better start than the first until I shifted into 4th....the sled was really letting the trucks run free...some of them were going 350' until being shut off because a lack of room. They were not really crazy runners by any means but I think it just made for a better show.
I've got a stock tank out of an 06 ec lb dually if u want stock. Let me know.
Be a down payment towards remote mount setup. Lol

Well, I sold swampthing. Good news is that it went to a good home, AJ (IowaLLY) bought it and has some good plans for it. Best of luck to him.
