Yep it is the type that is plug and play..................... Is there any other kind? Please why spend hours trying to find the wrong wire when you can just plug and go...................... I even think it has the adapter cable. PM me some info and I'll PM you mine. You cover shipping & it's yours.

Lowered the tailgate to place items on to photograph. Been selling a lot of stuff on eBay, for some reason, I just lower the tailgate, set the item on there (as of late, car parts), take my pictures, go inside and list them online.

Well, found the best formula for my needs. It's a mix and match of the diesel and the 98 (on the farm or weekends). The 98 has to blow the bugs out at least one 20 mile trip a week on 89 octane. The next diesel tank gets some additives. K.

best additive for your diesel: 128:1 mix ratio of diesel and TCW3 2-cycle oil. (1oz per gallon) keeps the injection pump and injectors happy. I run the cheap wallyworld supertech stuff and buy it by the gallon.

installed my new exhaust, and my frozen boost non cat today!

welded one end of the cat on, then band clamped the other. new exhaust is a 3" single cat back from dynomax. fits well, all clamped together with band clamps, so itll make thing easier to take apart if needed.

however, the dynomax "turbo" muffler is WAY too quiet for my liking! gonna get a magnaflow me thinks...

^^Thanks Jigs, I'm going in to Wally world Wednesday anyway (Kroger fuel, Wally World for the one gallon 128:1 mix, and my lawn mower guy for the TCW3 Two cycle oil, 1oz per gallon). K.

Not today, but lastweek, did a 1100KM trip up in the mountains, up and down mostly 10% and 6% grades. Handled quite well and average 16.4MPG. A little over $280 to fund that trip.... With this new job I get some hefty discounts on a new Dodge or Ford. Looks like I'll be getting a SuperDuty sooner than I thought
