I'm taking that as a no.. Haha
The stupid map sensor went out.. Why in the hell is the socket size so huge? I don't have a 1 1/4 deep socket so now I have to get one of those.. After spending 83$ on a new one.. Couldn't figure out Cummins site to buy one from them. I HATE being the slow *** truck that takes over a mile to hit 60! Starting to ponder selling it.. But I love that thing so much!
Sorry just had to type that out.. SO frustrating sometimes.

If you wanna sell it, I call dips!
But it sounds like you're not getting all your fuel OR somethins up with your trans. I'd keep it, may cause some headaches but it'll be worth it.

It was the MAP sensor after all.. The trans is a manual so you can't really mess it up..
Made it limp like crazy.. Bet I was making killer mpg though LOL

Yeah, you could say that. It's definitely not hard to find in the parking lot. When I was looking for a 3500, I wanted a black sport, but they were non existent. When I drove up on mine to look at it and saw that it was yellow, believe me.. I had my concerns. It grew on me of course, especially when I found out it was the rarest color (only 8 painted in solar yellow in 99 only I'm told). For the price and what it needed, I couldn't pass it up. It's been a great truck and I'll find great difficulty in ever selling it. Only has 129k on the clock right now.
