Thank You so much for clearly explaining this, really appreciate it 👍🏻 I’m building a very unique engine set up, building in a lot of system redundancy to avoid breakdown, and rebuilding coolant, electrical, and exhaust systems into the engine bay before the engine install

Hey Rico I’m having trouble with a 47 international I put a motor from a 95 3500 2wd. Seeing if maybe I could get ahold of you to give me a rundown of how you successfully did yours I’ve watched your videos and I’m still struggling. Thank you!

I have been running my 12 valve in my old 93 Chevy for years without a grid heater. No issues, when it gets very cold I plug it in. It was an always wanted to do project to hook up the grid heater.

@RicosGarage 2 жыл бұрын

I rarely use it. But it's nice to have the grid heater when it's real cold.

I am still having a parasitic drain from my Radio circuit in my 2005 Ram/Cummins, Unhook radio. Drain load is still there. Can you tell me, "What else is on that circuit?"

Rico I'm swapping Burnt up 01 24v h.o. for 96 12v I have it in just wondering what other than fuel solenoid and grid heater do I need to fire

@RicosGarage 2 жыл бұрын

Technically you don't need either one to fire it up it will run without the grid heater and if you're just looking to fire it up you can wire open the fuel shut off with a zip tie or something like that But as far as running in the truck you need power to the fuel shut off solenoid the grid heater if you live somewhere cold and some kind of charging system that's pretty much it the 12 valve is a very simple mechanical engine Thanks for watching and I hope this helps you out

Rico of course I'm getting no bus. Also no current to starter when I hit the key. I'm going to go with a push button and I already have pull cord on fuel sol . Would I need to transplant pcm from 96 truck to 2001 or are they compatible.

How did you wire the starter in ?

@RicosGarage 2 жыл бұрын

By using the factory big block starter wiring. Purple wire goes to small terminal on starter. Large terminal gets positive battery cable.

I have a 1998 dodge ram Cummins diesel 5.924 valve the batteries are not charging the voltage regulator in the computer not working so I installed an external voltage regulator and the batteries are charging fine but the transmission is not shifting I like your old school wiring method I’m just trying to figure out how to make the transmission shift I know it’s right there it’s just a little baffling to me after watching your video maybe you could help me some direction because I don’t have hundreds of dollars for a new computer thank you Peter

Quick question you mentioned two fan relays.....I’m thinking you are meaning something other than the cooling fans, correct? On my project vehicle I’m building in the general infrastructure, so cooling fans and everything are already wired up through thermostat relays in the piping. So at the risk of sounding like a rookie, please clarify what fans one and two are.......Thank You 👍🏻

@RicosGarage 2 жыл бұрын

I have 2 pusher fans mounted in front of the radiator in lieu of a mechanical fan

@justintyme1449 2 жыл бұрын

@@RicosGarage ok thanks, that’s perfect, I’m also using one large fan “pulling” heat out of the engine bay only......and as unusual as it sounds two full size radiators, built into the sides with one cooling fan each “pulling” outside cool air in....each cooling system operates independently of each other, but share an upper and lower pipe, into the engine and the first coolant system to be in operation will cancel the other for the duration of its cooling cycle. It sounds more complicated than it actually is. This is one of two modular power plants I’m starting to build....basically if you can imagine a vehicle body , and the entire rear section wheels and all, can be removed, and swapped in with another in about 20-30 minutes
