2002 Durango Opener Instructions?

From : Annonymous

Q: get a shop manual any suggestions. any maintance tips/suggestions appreciated. hows the dual battery setup work your biggest problem will be the potential for injector pump failure because of lift pump failure. the lift pumps on these engines are notorious for failing starving the injection pump of fuel which it uses for lubrication and causing a rather expensive repair. get a fuel pressure gauge genos garage http//www.genosgarage.com has the necessary gauge connecting hose etc. so you can monitor your fuel pressure. id recommend an electric gauge westach makes one as does autometer which is what i have as it makes the installation easier the sending unit stays in the engine compartment so you dont have to mess with fuel into the cab or an isolator unit. other than that - keep the fluids fresh use only good-quality oil and filters fleetguard stratapores also available from genos above and above all... wave to the ford and chevy drivers as you pass them on the hills .

@webtv.net says... well it looks like geekboy doesnt now what he is taking about and doesnt know much about trucks in general. he uses big words that he must have read in a dodge owners magazine and now all of the sudden he thinks hes a mechanical genious. i have owned trucks from the big 3 dodge ford and chevy.... my opinion the chevy trucks are the best all around yes i admit that the styling is getting a littledated but i still think they have the other two beat. ford i have nothing aginst but my opinion if you are gonna buy a big truck look a like just buy the f-250 and have it over with i like the new ford body style better than the last feminine looking 1997 to 2004 trucks. but thats not saying much. but as far as fuel economy goes the bulky ford is nick n tuck with the dodge. chevy= better performance fuel economy and bang for your buck in my opinion. i have a hemi and its claim of 345 hp....is a joke.....i bet if you put it on a dyno it wouldnt hit 150 hp. poor fuel economy with sucky performance.. i think the dodge designers need to go back to school. html body bgcolor=blacktext=white p align=center embed img src=http//www.angelfire.com/rock/cooper/skyline.gif /body /html well my supposedly weak hemi stomps all over my last truck a 295 hp sierra z71 ext cab with 3.73 gears. the ram weighs about 400 pounds more and beats it by at least .25 seconds in a drag race. launching it is very difficult as the rear bounces around or it smokes the hell out of the tires. the gm trucks have the trans and computer set up so that wheelspin is pretty difficult. just punch it and go.. its much stronger than the gm 5.3 and they arent bad. i would take a 5.3 over the 5.9 dodge any day and i owned three vehicles with them. you must not have driven an f150 yet now thats on the weak side. wait a second. i had a f-150 and it was damn quick. it did say lightning on the front fenders though.g well now thats a little different. a neighbor bought a new 04 f150 almost the day they came out and its slow. the 5.4 is not all that great. we traded trucks one morning and he really liked mine. i liked his too it was just..slow. most hemis dyno at about 260-275 at the rear wheels and that means 345 hp is about right. if the hemi had the nissan titans trans set up you would be amazed.. so the hemi has 20 more hp that the 05 cummins 610 hp yeah but a lot less torque and torque is what makes the wheels go round... i had a 79 trans am with the olds 403 in it. stock it was weak but after a cam kit headers intake heads ported 455 ones and a recurved distributor it was a torque junkies dream car. it had throttle response unlike anything i have ever had before or since. another insane thing was the gears it had stock it had a 2.41 posi! after the engine work i could smoke the tires as long as i wanted to and after i found a disc braked rear from another car with 3.23 it was amazing as long as you were very light footed or the tires spun. mileage wasnt bad 14 around town and almost 20 on the highway. it was a very scary car to drive when it was raining i got it out of shape a couple of times just by getting on the gas a touch too much. some of it was the 70 sized tires but the speed it ran on the top end of the drag strip showed it was doing fine in the power department. but that throttle hit...my mother drove it once and it scared the crap out of her! i stupidly sold it and still miss it. it was totally reliable except for a mysterious case of vapor lock hot weather surging and popping that turned out to be a corked up fuel line. when they started putting injector cleaner in the gas it solved it after a year + of trying to cure it and a lot of $$$$. the only real thing i liked more on the sierra was the gas mileage and thats still not a big deal.. what rear gears are in the hemi 3.92 mandatory if you have 20 wheels. if you have 17 wheels you get 3.55 standard and 3.92 optional. i wish 4.10s were available i would have gotten them the mileage wouldnt really have changed much if at all. i was shocked how much difference there was from 3.55 to 3.92. bdk roy bdk .
