OK,
Have the oil pressure sender / gage and fuel pump hooked up. Oil pressure is identical to manual gage. 55-70 PSI
Didn't think I'd need the fuel pump, with the massive low-pressure pump on the Cummins. Wrong.
Hooked it up, and immediately a different driving truck. Smoother, quieter, and a wee bit more power. Less smoke.
Had to buy a new connecter head. I could see the wires, but the connecter got eat by the rear of the 5.9L Cummins.
