I am brand new to this forum and want to use it to help me with my truck. Certainly hoping for any and all input. I have had so many issues with my truck, to the point that I had to have a new manifold installed because the "junk" or "soot" that built up inside it melted literally hundreds of little holes in the shitty plastic manifold. I bought this truck because a friend told me about the amazing fuel milage and at first I was getting close to 30 mpg. But after a 4" lift kit and larger tires, that went down significantly. I recently started getting a lot of lugging and at idle it sounded like crap. I found a YouTube video about cleaning the diffuser tube and the Mass Air Flow sensor and I did that with relative ease and the amount of soot build up on both of those parts was incredible. Simple non-chlorinated brake cleaner did the job. And once back together, it ran like new. I am excited to see if it improves the fuel milage. I will now try to do this every 12-15k miles as a standard maintenance. So onto my questions for you all...
Does anyone here have experience with a Tuner Depot EGR Delete kit and their Black Bandit's Iron Loader EGR Delete/Tune kit? It's not cheap but if it will save my engine from the absorbent amount of CRAP getting pushed through it, it will be worth it.
