Hey everyone, Ok, it's been a hot minute since I've posted. the truck was out of commission for about a month getting painted because that's obviously important for fuel economy. Now, I did fix the header leak while it was all apart and, aside the fact that the tick was driving me bonkers, the...

Another week, another update. The good news, I averaged 12.4 mpg on my last tank (trip to Iowa City helped with that. Running 80 mph with 35-40 mph winds, however, did not.) we are moving in the right direction. Now to the bad news, the exhaust leak is back and is worse than before. I'm...

How thick were the flanges on your TTI's? My headers had some damn thick flanges, but they're made from chineseium (they were all of 165 bucks new if that tells you anything). I think I'm going to wait on buying gaskets as I have a 360 that's going in and I'm going to get a set of pacesetter...

Hey everyone, its been a few weeks. I have some updates 1st, the fuel pump took a crap on me so it's got a new one now, doubt that'll do anything for mileage but we shall see. on my last tank, I averaged 12 mpg, which is better, but still not where i want to be. on this current tank, it's at 10...

The CEL worked in the cluster, it was always on with the old ECU. I haven't played with the ECU at all. The truck is running around 195-200 degrees, so the sensor seems to be fine

couple of updates, I found one of the accelarometer apps, I'm not entirely sure its accurate though. it was showing that I was pulling .03 G's on the neutral deccel test, so I don't know if that's in the ballpark for this truck or not. it really likes to hold its speed with no throttle input...

My truck came factory with the 3.55s and I calibrated it for the 31s, so the speedo is accurate. For the G-tech deal, if my phone has a gyroscope (basically reads where the phone is and the angles it's at) is there something I can do with that to find my deccel G's? With the exhaust leaks, turns...

AJ, I really appreciate all the help, everything has been super informative. I will say, for you not being an efi guy, you sure know your crap. I dunno if any exhaust leaks before the 02 sensors would mess with their readings or not (still chasing them from the headers). Now, say this is a...

yes, it does have both 02 sensors wired in. the rear one has a spacer on it since the truck doesn't have the cats in it anymore

Sorry for the confusion, I meant the truck doesn't have one on, as in it currently isn't throwing any codes

AJ, The truck doesn't have a CEL or any codes, but huffs a little blue oil smoke on startup. I'm going to say the motor is slightly wore out (no, I didn't check the mileage on the parts truck, that's a boo boo on my part) but, I have a 360 magnum with 60k on it to solve that problem eventually...

AJ, I apologize, I should've given more information. The truck is a reg cab short bed (rcsb). the truck has a magnum multipoint efi motor in it, I built a bracket for the filter because I wasn't going to spend 500 bucks on a cold air intake. It has overdrive with 255/55r20 tires (31 inches) and...

Hey everyone, I'm looking to improve my mileage I'm my 01 ram. It's a rcsb 2wd with a 318, 3.55 gears, and a 2/4 drop kit (the front at least, it's been too damn cold to do the rear). Currently, the truck has a 3x14 air cleaner, a set of shorty headers, stock y-pipe to a 2.5 in/3 out flowmaster...

Finally got around to fixing the truck. Thanks for the link, but I wound up finding a used one for 200 bucks. Thanks for the help

Sorry, been busy for a hot minute. Finally checked for a vacuum leak today and, no dice. So far, the truck is doing halfway decent on the startup, I don't know if it's happier with the cold weather or what

I have not checked for a vacuum leak, though I did install a new plenum gasket while the motor was out. will check tomorrow for a leak

It's throwing p0132 and p0138 currently

anyone?

Anyone?

Hey everyone, I've got a 2001 ram that I recently swapped the v6 for a 318. Now, I used the ECU from the parts truck (2000 ram 1500) and it ran fine for all of 2 days. Now, when I start the truck, it'll light off and then die immediately. It will stay running if I give it some throttle, and...
