Flashed the PCM with my newly arrived hypertech. Will report final results in this thread https://dodgeforum.com/m_911884/tm.htm in 2-3 weeks or so.

Nice weekend project. One of my battery bolts literally corroded in two! So I procured the proper factory (expensive!) bolts and a newhold down and replaced them.
That was after I removed the battery box, cleaned all the rust and dead paint off the inner fender, removed the damaged convolute tubing and cleaned everything up with baking soda, sanded, converted, primed and painted the fender and fabricated a new negative terminal.

Oh and I changed out a melted bumper light wiring harness. That took about5 minutes.

BTW, some dielectric grease will help slow that down on the new bolt.

Washed the truck, and engine bay, threw out the trash. Ordered an ultrasonic bath to clean fuel injectors, thermo-tec tape for the fuel rail, and an O2 simm for the highflow cat and that pesky p0420 code.

Installed a Blaster 3 coil and MSD wires a month ago, and modded the Crank sensor, forgot to add that.
