    idle speed setting?

    MM! It isn't the engine temp that you are concerned about after driving, it is the turbo temperature! The turbo needs to run a idle speed to allow it to cool down! On start-up, you want to let the turbo run at idle speed for 5 min. BEFORE you incease the speed, to allow proper lubrication...

    idle speed setting?

    MM! Are you sure that you want to jack the idle speed up to 800 rpm? When you are done driving the truck, you need to let it cool down at idle for 5 min., before you shut it off! At 800 rpm, it will take longer, and if you forget, could do some damage! What I do, is let the truck warm up for...

    parking brake

    Kenny! I have an idea! <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_idea.gif" alt="Idea"> Check with larger pipeline companies to see if they have any pipeline trucks! They probably bought them up, as they became surplus, and there are all kinds of them sitting in yards, not being used! See if there is...
