Will do. Thx Mark.
I can say that I put LED’s in my FRONT turn signals- good quality ones- and they made my main brake lights quit. ( I had Spyder LED tail lights ) I guess it was too many LED’s and somehow the front turn signals are tied to the brake lights- I think the brake lights use the turn signal light bulbs to flash. I had to put resistors on the front turn signal bulbs. I’m just mentioning this to show that LED’s can do weird shit to our trucks.

I do have resistors on the fronts and rears for my leds. I'll just throw some reg bulbs like you suggested. I really don't like how that 3rd brake light looks lit up all the time now. Thank God it's tinted, or it would be so much brighter.

Hey Ton, I saw this post on a FB group for performancetrucks.net, and thought of the issue you described. Looks like in his case it was (2) bad crank sensors. Thought I’d share. Hope you can see / hear the video:


“Finally got the popping and banging issue I was having figured out. Ended up having 2 bad crank sensors. Pulled an old one I had setting in a bucket for years out and put it in and it fixed everything. Still got to get the cold side fabed up but I had to take her for her maiden voyage with the new PRC headed 408, FI 85/96 billet wheel turbo, Alan Pope built 80e.”
