Could just zip tire it to the frame and plug the bung?

I tried that first and the light came on and never went away. It's been off since the last time so maybe it's good for now

Damn that's really odd, man....I ran around for a good 2 weeks with a catless downpipe on my srt4 before it got tuned and never popped the light once. I asked my tuner about the HP not disabling the O2 on JTEC pcm's.

its funny because it stayed off for about a month after i went catless but it was 60-70f degrees outside... when it got down to 40f or around there it started popping the code

I've been debating about cutting out the cat or not...maybe I won't if HP can't turn off the idiot light. On the SRT4 it makes it run even more rich than it already does.

the code / light hasn't came back since the last time i posted it. so its working out with the anti fouler

Ice was fun in the truck

i had the volt gauge max out on my two times, where are the ground wires that could cause this anyone know off hand?

[Canadian_RT]

Did it ding at you when driving and you noticed the volt gauge go up then back to normal? I had that happen exactly once, then never again, and that was before the write-off and rebuild. No idea what could've caused it

[johnnyb]

Yah the check gauges like comes on and brings and after about 16 seconds it went back to normal


It's done it three times now tho

[johnnyb]

there was a small leak i had to fill catch can every week or two, i saw some water or coolant dripping down the side of the radiator, i took it all apart and inspected the radiator and couldn't see any problems. i put it all back together and there is no leak now. i think maybe one of the hoses was leaking a little bit around the clamp or something.

seems fine now

[johnnyb]

new battery terminals fixed the volt gauge issue... for now

[Canadian_RT]

Shit, you know what?.....I did actually replace my negative battery terminal at one point....the old one eventually cracked/broke. Might've been my issue that one time too.
