It's a small world. Who'd have thunk I would have bought my truck from the same place you were birthed from? :lol:

 

 

 

Can't see this pic? Do I want to even know what it is? :lol:

it no worky, Tobias

 

 

It was a sign that said "Anus"

 

 

So its a picture of your license plate? :lol:

Wow I think this is turning into the latest and greatest "do not reply" thread. Hence my non-reply.

I figure we will get to 260+ pages but it may take a little longer than the "original" Non-Reply post but we'll get there.

Why the **** would I trade my truck in? Rob seriously your starting to piss me off. You keep replying over and over again just to get your post count up, aren't you? You're a douche bag dude.

 

And that was an April Fools joke. You know what a joke is you dumb shit? Heres the definition.

 

1. Something said or done to evoke laughter or amusement, especially an amusing story with a punch line.

2. A mischievous trick; a prank.

Been waiting for 15 minutes now for your reply. I'm gonna go to bed now, later shit face.

 

 

Btw, I wish something would've happened to you when that tire fell off your ugly ass truck. Yes it's harsh. I know, but you know what else? I don't give a **** anymore.

1. Something said or done to evoke laughter or amusement, especially an amusing story with a punch line.

2. A mischievous trick; a prank.

First, let's start off by saying, if YOU'RE going to say something....how about learning how to spell? QUOTE: "...your starting to piss me off." Second, I am NON-REPLYING to YOUR dumbass because REPLYING to you is something NONE OF US really want to do. Thirdly, everyone knows that was NOT an April Fool's joke because most of the time YOU'RE bitching about something that is wrong with YOUR truck and YOU'RE too ignorant to take it to the dealer OR YOU'RE to young (i.e., just a kid) to understand that YOUR truck is made by humans, not machines you watch on the cartoon network. Fourth, again, I go back to YOUR continued language errors. I wonder how you are doing in school. Do you know what an apostrophe is? QUOTE: "Heres the definition"

1. The sign ('), as used: to indicate the omission of one or more letters in a word, whether unpronounced, as in o'er for over, or pronounced, as in gov't for government; to indicate the possessive case, as in man's

2. To indicate plurals of abbreviations and symbols, as in several M.D.'s, 3's

Seriously PUNkMAX, if you spent more time reading your books instead of using them to lift you up higher on YOUR chair as you type or attaching them to YOUR feet so you can reach the gas pedal in that TICKING truck of YOURS, you might learn something. Now go to bed and stop whining.

AHHH, where do I start with this one.....

OK, The fact that you have been waiting for 15 minutes AFTER I logged off means that you must be a lonely person with no friends so you pine away (PUN, locate POUT in the dictionary, it means the same thing) waiting for someone to REPLY to you when I already stated (in the above non-post) that NO ONE is REPLYING, this is a NON-REPLYarea. Oh, this is the defintion of NON-REPLY:

1. A failure to respond to or acknowledge anything

2. Ignoring someone because they are a jackass, READ the numerous NON-REPLIES from your many fans!

 

Let's see here....QUOTE: "...later shit face." Gee, PUN, I am hurt by such articulate words from you :lol: . I do believe that comment died about 20 or so years ago. Oh, sorry I forgot you aren't that old so you wouldn't understand.

 

Furthermore..... My tire did not fall off. If you can READ and COMPREHEND that I said (sorry folks, NON-REPLIED) my rim broke and my right caliper bracket broke then you would know that my tire did not fall off. Maybe you should look up the directions to your local dealership on MapQuest or Google Maps, print off a copy of my post, and have the Service Manager explain the difference between a tire falling off and a broken rim to you. I know it may be difficult to understand the big words that grown-up people use but I am sure if you tell him you have a limited grasp of knowledge, he would be happy to grab crayons and further elaborate :lol: . OK, are you still with me PUN? As far as my "ugly ass truck" goes, I don't think you were old enough to drive when I BOUGHT it myself, not my daddy. Anyway, justifying this comment from you takes up too much valuable time and all the adults in the room know what I am thinking right now.

 

As far as you wishing something bad would've happened to me....well, let's just say that 20 years of military AND the fact that I have been in more dangerous situations than you have been to the bathroom, allows me to say, I do understand the reason for your reactions. I equate that with your inexperience as a mature person and your age limits your sense of reasoning. Don't worry PUN, you didn't offend me, numerous people, a lot more important than you, have tried to offend me but failed miserably because their opinions (like yours) doesn't matter. Just the fact that you replied (yes, PUN replies) makes me understand that you are sad and ashamed that someone you don't even know completely understands your sad plight in life. If I were you, I would trade in that ticking truck of yours for that Mercedes you always wanted and have your daddy carry you through life so you can avoid the harsh reality that is the world. If my NON-REPLIES helps you to grow up, then I am glad I could assist. Thank you for your wonderful commentary throughout your visits to this forum. You have brightened the lives of some of us because your anguish has brought some fellas together to chat on a daily basis and that probably would not have happend otherwise.

 

OH YEAH....

    • Can it still be Assembled I?    Stribeck says that we need a certain amount of viscosity under conditions of load and velocity to prevent two surfaces of a know roughness from tearing each other asunder. And we have marketing trying to tell the masses that those two surfaced require less of that commodity due to more exact limits being placed on the same old clearances. We also know that there are limits to how hard something can before it becomes to brittle to be viable and to smooth to 'wet' the surface and that both of those conditions have been known and met since about the Second World War.    That viscosity value shook out at 10 centistokes at 212 F just under a hundred years ago.  Give this a look: [Anton Parr]     What is advertised is the Kinematic viscosity (mm2/s) or that which has been density adjusted but the value we are after is the dynamic viscosity (mPa.s) or true viscosity. You can see that this number is dependent on density thus base stock and temperature. You can also see that an SAE 30 doesn't reach that value in this example. However an SAE 30 that is at the upper end of the SAE 30 range; 12.5 cSt (mm2/s), might. 12.5 * .83 = 10.375 (mm2/s). If you could find an SAE 30 at the upper end these days.   Then there is the complication of viscosity modifiers or VII or VM, whatever you wish to call them. Polymers added to very thin base oils, perhaps 3 to 6 cP oils, that will meet the SAE *W30 spec at 'tested' shear rates and 100 C/212F  target temperature. So a polymer fortified base that is a fraction of the 10 cP requirement Stribeck insist upon.   This could be all well and good if those polymers didn't have two very problematic 'features'. They shear or loose viscosity both 1.) permanently and 2.) temporality. And they do both omitted in the advertised data with the distinct  purpose of deceiving the consumer of the actual operating state of the fluid. I've shown the example of Warren Oils COSTCO 10.91 cSt 5W30 formuation several times where the 100 C HTHS value is 6.9 cP!! That's the temporary shear down and with and SSI or shear stability index of 9.4 cSt. Note the intentional deception in using mixed units?    After a short while that 9.4 cSt oil has a viscosity corrected dynamic value of 7.8 cP. But as the SSI is still within the range of an SAE *W30 whose lower value is 9.3 cSt.    This allows them to continue to call this SAE 16 weight oil a 30 weight, the cake, and still meet the API requirements for fuel efficiency IMPROVEMENT mandated by the EPA. The eating of the cake. By the time you've worn out your motor doing the responsible thing by adhering to the warranty requirements, (the stick), you get deprived of the carrot, wear control. So sad, to bad.   So what can be done? Do I need actually say? [Anton Parr]       Even this must be monitored if the oil is on the low side and the VII an organic or you opt for a 0W40 with an even lighter base oil and more / higher MW VII. (Note the lower density of the 40 weight versus the SAE 30 mono-weight?)    There is another workaround. Temperature. An SAE *W30 run at a bulk temperature of between 180 and 195 F.    Being the belt and suspenders sort I am I do both. Run it cook and run it heavy.    In Part II I'll work the AW package. 
    • So, do I go elbow-deep on this thing or list it for sale and play dumb? Seems to "runs good."   I'm about $1200 away from having: -a rebuilt injector ($300) -a new cat ($250) -a new cat back exhaust (OE style) ($300) -a new AC compressor ($200) -AC refrigerant charge ($150)   In theory, this should rectify the obvious detracting issues from its value and operability. Cold AC with a non-squeaking AC pulley both sounds and feels good. An exhaust that isn't cut/hacked in 17 different places and doesn't vibrate on a crossmember would make it sound and feel less janky. A working cat would help the stink, and will save the earth, but *if and only if* the fuel system is working properly, which would also address the intermittent "rich" CEL.   Heard a good one... CEL for "Rich condition" means you haven't spent enough money on the truck lately, and it's letting you know.   Rebuilding the injector would seem to be the most important part. Replacing the cat would be secondary. I don't think mine is plugged or overly restricted, but it might be a little restricted? I have no good way to tell other than seat of the pants feel. I hate the smell.   The current theory is I have a rich idle problem: A bad fuel pressure regulator, or a leaking injector(s) being the highest probabilities. I already replaced the FPR but that doesn't mean its replacement isn't also bad. It was a new part from Dorman, but the packaging looked like it had been sitting on a shelf for 20 years.   This is the (single) upstream O2 sensor shown at idle. I'm getting a lot of "rich" it seems. Sometimes it stays high like that and doesn't drop down. That makes me think it's processing injector leaks or a partially stuck open injector.     Other times it looks like this. Nice oscillations between rich and lean, which is what I think it should be. Under load and at speed, the oscillations are nice and tight and uniform looking, high and low.     Fuel trims suggest the PCM is compensating pretty hard at idle to pull fuel out. But it's not enough to trip a CEL. Something about slowing to a stop: brake vaccum booster, EGR, or the EVAP purge is delayed, or there's pooled fuel in the intake again that's draining into a cylinder is enough to set the CEL. Of course, in two days of driving, it hasn't set. I was hoping to actually look at the freeze-frame data when it sets. IAT is high because it's idling on an 83 degree day here.  
    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.
