I wonder how many people actually use the DIY writeups... I know in the 2nd gen forum the plenum DIY writeup I did gets used alot but what about the others? what do you guys think?

 

I use them. the front shaft lube point.....Brakes, I already knew, but a lot of people did not. the fuel filter I used. Keep them coming as they are great. if you have the 48re and want to do a shift kit install diy feel free to

 

I know I used them to help myself and others.
I bought my CTD my first diesel and within 3 months I knew a hell of a lot more than I thought I would know about CTD diesel and impressed my family and friends with all my learning

 

well, I already have the kit installed and it's under the tranny warranty when I got my tranny rebuilt. Otherwise I'd do it. If there were someone local who wanted it doneI'd be happy to give it a shot, it cannot be that hard.

 

Love the DIYs. The valve adjustment one in particular was a big help.

 

I know I spent 4 hours on a write up for changing a head gasket on a neon and das said he sent it to amanda, but it never got posted[:@]

 

that's why I started doing it this way... if there are any changes to it,I can edit my own post.

 

I posted it in the 1st gen section and das put a lock on it, he said it was because he didnt want anyone posting on it since it was going to the top. It just sucks to spend that much time for nothing, then have several people each day ask how to change a head gasket...

 

It can not be too hard. I am going to give it a try probably in January. I will get pics and all info and maybe try a diy of my own if it all works out well.

 

As it has already been said keep it cumming. When I first bought my truck I had no idea how to even change the fuel filter. I would have looked under the truck on the frame like a gasser.
