Default just got a cummins and I love it.

Just picked up a 2 wheel drive 1992 dodge ram w/ a cummins. Automatic, 157,000 miles, some rust in the door but thats about it. Extended cab w/ jump seats for 2000$ COuldnt be happier. What should I watch out for? Fuel pump was just recalibrated back to stock settings by cummins and it has new rotors and pads and one new caliper.

I love it.

Yah i thought about that already. How much of a hit would I take in fuel economy? And how much can I go without upgrading the rest of the fuel system/turbo? For now all thats planned is a 4 inch exhaust from the turbo back just ta help it spool a bit quicker. First things first though gotta solve the problem with it kickin outta overdrive Shouldnt be too hard, I assume it to be a loose wire, or a wire worn through somewere. IF you could please see my other post for more details and help me out
