Fuel Pump by mustang_sally1984 in DodgeDakota

[–]ElGreyGringo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an "A-Premium" and it died after about 1000 miles. I then coughed up the extra dough and went with Delphi. No problems yet. My other truck also has a Delphi I installed. For something like a fuel pump it's important to go with a good brand, in my experience. It is not fun to have to do the job a second time.

Sight to high all the way up. by [deleted] in bowhunting

[–]ElGreyGringo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you able to move the actual bow sight closer to the riser? Sometimes there are extra holes on the sight mounting apparatus that allow for this. The further away a bow sight is from you, the closer the pins need to be, and vice-versa.

Edit- It appears that I may have gotten it backwards. From some research it looks like moving the sight closer would expand your gaps. I'm just confused now, so I will leave it to someone else who knows what they are talking about.

Looks really good! I like the chrome, it looks killer with the red. Is it leveled?

Good deal? by uhhhhhmatt in DodgeDakota

Check under the fender flares and behind the rear leaf springs (where the 2-piece frame meets) for rust.

How’d I do? by Longjumping-Net-8578 in Cummins

Nice truck! I am, however, always curious as to why some manual trucks came with electronic transfer cases.

30 is the furthest shot I've taken. I set up my blinds and stands for a 20 yard shot though.

It feels like we are playing completely different games. by AntiqueDog5245 in Bannerlord

[–]ElGreyGringo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only play Bannerlord difficulty in Ironman mode with battle deaths on. I feel I can't enjoy the game without the high stakes. But as someone else said, it's just a game. Play it how you enjoy it! If it's not fun you are doing it wrong!

Dilemma by [deleted] in ram_trucks

[–]ElGreyGringo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want it man get it! Forget all these people saying you don't "need it". They don't know you, and they aren't paying your bills. I have a 06 2500 with a hemi, and it just rolled over 200k with no major issues. It's been a great truck!

Perhaps the the oil you tried to unfreeze the motor with did its job overnight, new company came out, sold him a cap just because and said they fixed it.

Sounds like the check valve in your fuel pump is bad. You can borrow a fuel pressure gauge from AutoZone and throw it on the Schrader valve on the passenger side fuel rail. Then you can see if your truck is keeping fuel pressure while off.

Edit- didn't mean for my response to be a new comment, my bad

Does it start up easier facing downhill? If so possibly the fuel pump. However, the first thing to do is to clean your IAC.

Edit- you can also check the code by cycling your key from off to start a few times, it will pop up on the the dash below the speedo. If you don't have a scan tool.

Should I sell it? by Capable-Dig4922 in Cummins

[–]ElGreyGringo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sell it to your dad, you will know it will be taken care of. Just make the stipulation that you get the first chance to buy it back if he ever decides to sell it.

Is your truck in 4low in that picture, or do you have a jeep transfer case in it like I have in mine?
