The beeter tow rig is a 98.5 24v that isnt running right anymore more so now my baby has to work.

haha well my dad and grandfather have the good ol 7.3s that are darn near indistructable and quite reliable ( my cummins smokes them both) and have a coupple of friends that have the newer powerstrokes that are junk they practically stay in the shop
but any way i am wanting to know what kind of setup you have if any on the cummins

Its all stock man. We cant figure out wats wrong with it, no power it wont even spin the tires in sand.

yep there is something seriously wrong there is the trans ok and does the motor make any weird sounds or any thing

on an 01 cummins best setup for towing and fuel mileage was a set of 100 hp injectors and bd super b turbo. intake and exhaust as well as the manifolds swapped using ones from ats. and an ejwa with hot unlock. it did everything and more and DD got well over 22 mpg and pulling my 18ft enclosed race trailer with two quads and all our gear for the weeked in the mountains here it ususally got 18 mpg

It just got a new lift pump and the trans shifts fine. It parked right now because it was running shitty then a fuel line busted and I dont have the time to find the leak. I think its electrical because it has a few shorts.

well i can tow a 13,000 pound enclosed trailor loaded and get 11mpg ( compaired to the father in laws ford v8 gas burner he braggs about all the time that gets 6mpg with the same exact trailor and load ) but any way thanks banditsdiesel right now i am going to have to put tires and a new lift and vp44 pump in it ( lift pump is dieing and takeing injection with it cought it too late) but after that i will look into that setup and really like the milage numbers that you got :rocking:

well yah it could be electrical the newer a diesel is the more it seems to depend on a computer whitch usually equils lessreliability and more stuff to go wrong
