tom lawrence wrote run diagnostics on the unit with the key on-key off 3 times routine and see if the bulb lights up when all of the dash lights come on. i dont know if the 96 had a cluster test. on the newer vehicles 98 and up you would initiate this by holding down the trip odometer reset button while turning the ignition on then releasing when it all lit up. since the 94-97 trucks have a mechanical odometer i doubt this would work. my 4x4 dash indicator works when i lock the transfer case on my 99 but the cluster test doesnt light it up and it doesnt come on during the startup bulb check. maybe a glitch in the programming -- ken .

does this sound possible or like a load of crap a great big steaming pile of it... if that were the case the driveshaft wouldnt care one bit whether you were in d or manual 1 - where you said it did not occur. if youre sure that it happens in d and not 1 youve 100% narrowed it to something inside the transmission. you have a 2000 so you can retrieve the codes with the ignition key method. cycle the ignition off-on-off-on-off-on stopping with the ignition on but not ever to start. the odometer will display and stored diagnostic codes pxxxx with xxxx being a 4-digit number. when all codes have been displayed pdone will show up. do that to either narrow down an electrical/sensor problem or eliminate it. by the way - you said the trans was serviced a few thousand miles ago. did you have the problem before that service .

while driving my truck it just cut out. its a 1996 dodge ram 2500 4x w/ 90000 miles. i coasted over and tried to start it no luck. i had it towed home. from the beginning i thought it was the fuel pump but i did test the battery fuses and relays. tomorrow its getting towed to a shop i trust my question is; can it be anything other than the fuel pump there is fuel about 10 gallons i put in some dry gas and 2 more gallons just incase its bad gas. i do not hear the fuel pump wiz on when i turn the key. can else can it be i will have the shop check it out i trust them but i dont want to go through the parts replacement guessing game. one thing to note for the past 2 weeks prior the truck wouldnd start on the first key turn a sign the pump is going bad but always on the second the truck has new plugs but not a new distributer. could something be wrong with the spark/wires/etc thanks for your help. .

what preaching how about right after you said the bible teaches this is how just about every church service starts. only those that teach from the bible. you are correct and exactly what are the ones that are teaching from the bible doing how about preaching!!!! how many hundreds of times have you insisted in an argument with me that a definition is not fixed you say im preaching and i say im not. miles and i were discussing a point about my beliefs as compared to his. i gave some reference information. and that was what you were doing up to the point where you said what you did above. after that is was nothing more than preaching even though miles has said more than once that he didnt want to hear it. aw there ya go speaking for others again. just gotta do everyones talking for them dont ya whats the matter budd are ya getting upset because i speak the truth. no just the opposite. im not upset because what youre saying is a lie. any way you want to spin it budd you were preaching simple as that. in your incorrect opinion. personally i dont care if you do or dont but if you claim not to and then flat out do it a few days later mr. the bible teaches someone is going to call you on it. well it had better be someone that knows more about preaching than you because what you do in these tirades is preach against me and my beliefs . . unfortunately you have no scriptures to support your preaching. if you want to preach go ahead but dont do it and then claim that you are not and try and cover with some crap about correcting errors when someone asks you to stop. all that does is make you look like a fool and a liar. then you coinsider all christians to be fools and liars tom because im following the commandment of jesus to go and make disciples of all men matthew 2818-20 tom shut up. oh my god according to you a federal offense has been committed a hate crime even and by you. you are taking away my right of free speech out of hatred. dont worry budd after you are convicted ill forgive you. and how many times have you told me to shut up file the charges tom. ill subpoena the archives . . . . -- budd cochran john 316-17 ephesians 28-9 romans 323 623 our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. it is wholly inadequate for the government of any other. john adams -- posted via a free usenet account from http//www.tera.com .

can the odometer be adjusted for the new size budd cochran wrote locate the tire diameter specs on the manufacturers site for both tires then do the math. always divide the new tire size by the old tire. you may get a number over 100% but that means the tire is turning that much faster than before and is the percentage to divide the indicated speed by. for example if your speedometer indicates 75 mph and your tire is turning 115% of the old tires rpm then you actual speed is 65.21 mph. odometer mileage will be affected the same way. i hope i didnt just make a big mistake. 2002 dodge ram 1500 quad with 4wd 100500 miles. i just today replaced the goodyear tires 275/60/20 with quoted text clipped - 4 lines tranny please let me know something. .

azwiley1 wrote hey craig hey! if this is what you want as opposed to what the group feels what the group feels sounds kinda liberal to me. silly me i thought we would talk about trucks. we do when needed but not all the time. some of the best info in the world is right here in this group. why do you do us alla favor and start your own moderated alt. autos.dodge.trucks group and then you can have all the only on topic conversations you want. too bad they will only be with yourself. i dont want to be the moderator of a group otherwise i would have already looked into it. as i have stated to roy and others and now you ... this ng has been the source of very good information in the past. i hate to see it go down the toilet despite roys assertion that it has always been in the toilet. the reason this group is headed for the toilet has nothing to do with topics discussed but rather with attitudes . . .like yours for example. there was a time a self-appointed moderator like yourself would have been flamed into toast a poster with the intention of causing a disruption would have been star filed and a person posting erroneous info would have been corrected until he / she learned. if youve been here as long as you claim i have one question back when id be trying to help control the problem kids where were you sad thing you dont want to realize is that no one honestly cares that you think the topc should only be about what you want. and thats okay. truth is i couldnt care less about the wants of most of the people here either. there are a few people here that i have a great deal of respect for. none of what you say changes the forum established to talk about whatever comes to your mind. wanna bet take a poll and youll find out otherwise. the group is not pixels on a screen it persons and topics. the majority of us have been in this group on average twice as long as you and have seen this net nanny crap come and go oddly enough the part that has gone is the person acting the way you are. im not acting. just stating a fact which seems to evade your fragile mind. fragile mind that wold be the person that has lost their identity and become a self-appointed moderator wouldnt it talk about your true colors your term not mine when you turned your attack on tom l.. i guess being here twice as long gives you the all clear to be an asshole. right no but it does give him a few more days of experience in this group wouldnt it btw kf me if you like wont hurt my feelings none. hell even theguy hasnt done that to me. bg my stating that i hoped that i didnt have to killfile you was not a threat. rather a sincere plea to you that you stop your ramblings about what a great war monger you are. as you say nobody cares. as with roy i dont have anything left to say about this with you either. have a good one. craig c. larry isnt a warmonger neither am i or nate nor any other person that has served this country. have you served in the armed forces if not then dont presume to think you know the mind of a person that has walked the walk or talked the talk . . . .or better yet ducked the bullets. i served 12 years in the national guard but having served with regular forces personnel doing out the rest of their commitments in the reserves i can judge them pretty well . . .ive sat up with a few vets while having flashbacks of nam. if you have then you have your own opinions but it doesnt give you the right to attack anothers opinions or call them names. -- budd cochran john 316-17 ephesians 28-9 romans 323 623 our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. it is wholly inadequate for the government of any other. john adams -- posted via a free usenet account from http//www.tera.com .
