Even the drag strip can show differences with more than ONE run with the install or stock. Even John Force runs different times, so put it on a dyno with multiple runs. Then take averages. Numbers please.
Where is the math ? Give us a before and after on the same vehicle on a dyno. Drag strips and race tracks have too much human input, so put it on a dyno and I'll buy the argument.
Used a battery kill switch on an '05 Duramax, but on the newer truck that can be a problem.
Just open the hood and pull the starter/fuel pump relay/fuse?
I have the same problem, along with "fob battery low". I think I have narrowed it down the the antenna in the canter console. From everything I have been able to find out, the antenna in the center console controls the enter and go, and the PTS button, which is the issue I am having. So, guess I...
Ram truck with eTorque will still start even if the Motor Generator Unit (MGU) fails. The eTorque system is a mild hybrid system, and while the MGU assists with starting, it is not the primary starter mechanism. The truck will use the 12-volt battery and a conventional starter motor to initiate...
ETorque is a generator/motor unit. If it quits, then the 12v battery will eventually die, but to my knowledge, the truck will still start.. If the RF hub or possibly other electronic device dies, so does the truck, and also all electrical devices, regardless of the 12v battery charge...
Because the tecs just plug a computer into the truck and expect the answer to the problem to pop out so they can replace a part. They are not mechanics, they are parts replacers, and really can not repair anything, or figure anything out if the computer doesn't tell them what is wrong.
I have to agree. The "I got 4WD so I can drive 70/75 0n ice and snow, I just stick it in 4WD and go" mentality is suicidal. The problem is that the auto industry has fostered the idea to soccer moms, and the population in general, that they NEED an AWD/ 4WD vehicle to get through winter...
The old man always said that 2WD was for going and getting into trouble, and 4WD was for backing out of it.
I worked construction in the PNW from '75 until 2011, and put from 40k to 60k a year on my truck. In bad weather, snow and ice, invariably the rig upside down in the ditch/median, was a...
