Bullet its your truck so do what you want, if it were mine though and I had the issues you just went through, id only be driving close to home for a few days

Like I said hit a muffler shop and see if they have any O2 **** plugs that come on some of the Magnaflow cats, and/or an old O2 sensor, or even a non-fouler and have someone throw some weld in it to plug the little hole in the end.

ive got the old o2 sensor in one side just need one more.

Curious now if your old O2 was actually bad?

I got a **** plug from one of my cats if you need it Nick.

oh yea it feels strong im just not used to these shift points. they all got erased so i have to put them in again and im shooting for 5.5-5.7

That's a pain in the ass to have to enter all the shift points again.

5.5 would be an awesome time. Hope you get it.

I can pretty much guarantee Home depot won't have the proper size, and you don't want to jack up the **** trying. What you're looking for is a M18 1.5. I do have one that I could loan you until you get one, I use these from time to time. There is a Nuts & Bolts True Value at 2320 South Collins in Arlington, it's between E. Pioneer and E. Park Row, they MIGHT have what you're looking for. Aside from that a muffler shop.

They got some **** there man, I always hit that place when I can't find the right bolt/nut whatever.

 

[Silverbullet08]

lol thats rights by my house ill swing by when traffic goes down

So the fix was the headers being piped? Anything else that could have contributed to getting it to idle? Just seemed to me it would be a plug/wiring issue. Well good to have here running.

 

[Silverbullet08]

put a hundred miles on it today. mostly long drive though. it sometimes still dies when i come to a stop. it tries to catch itself sometimes but sometimes it stalls

 

[AF_Hemi]

sounds like you need a little fuel pulled at idle. Give that PSC-1 a shot.

 

[southernbnb]

holy crap dude! you have been through some serious crap the last few weeks!! lol glad to hear you got her running finally!

Give it some time. The truck will learn the new setup.
