Update:
I put about 90% of the stuff for Fat Elvis on before my last trip to CO. Well it would not start. I spent 6hrs touble shooting before we left for the trip. So instead of canceling the trip the fiance said i had 30 min to get the Hummer ready for the trip or we will have to rent a car
Needless to say i got the hummer up and running. I checked all fluids, bolted a door panel on... Realise this is a 2200mile round trip for me. About 100 miles in the turbo started surging boost + or - 2 psi quickly. My heart sank! I pulled over at the next station and pured about a quart of deisel cleaner. In 2 miles it fixed the issue :wings: We ended up having a great trip besides the heated windshield, powerlock, and driver window sprayer on the fritz. :smiley_drive:
Once i got home with parts on the door step to fix the problem. the FICM (Fuel Injector Control Module) It must have been on its last leg and the priming of the fuel system put it over the edge. The new one i put it was form SWAMPS Diesel. It is a performance reflashed 58v unit :coffeedrink: . Needless to say the truck fired up better than it ever had.
I did a mpg test at 60-65 on the highway 80 miles 19.5 mpg!!! for a dually on a performance tune. The city i get about 17 mpg. That is about 2.5 mpg increase. It should save me $840 a year at 25k miles a year aka 2.3 years it paid for itself with deisel at $3.30 in houston. I would do the mods all over again just for the reliability improvement and massive amounts of power!
I was driving down the road the other day an hammered on the throutle at 50mph the rear wheels broke loose :smiley_drive: :Wow1: :wings:
:victory:
