I don't recall any lights since installing the new rebuilt one, but also it wont stay running long enough to even warm up. Updates to the saga are here.

I haven't, but will if you think they'd be receptive. Every report I've ever heard of their service has been overwhelmingly positive. For what it's worth, the other VAF has been taken opened up and "tuned" to get the truck to at least idle. In fact, it runs pretty well other than being generally...

Thank you so much for your support. I think scoping everything is a lot more effort than this truck is worth unfortunately. Not to mention the fact that I don't have the tools for such an endeavor. I have replaced so many connectors with new OEM connectors. All the injector connectors (along...

Hello everyone! I've been struggling for well over a year to get my 93 80 series to run. I'll save the drawn out process I had to eventually arrive at the point I'm at now, but in short the following items ended up being problems and required attention: TPS IAC VAF EGR (eventually deleted) O2...
