Get it checked NOW. I have heart rhythmias. So does a couple on my moms side. Usually it's chest pain and racing heart. Very similar to panic attacks. You have way more symptoms. Notably fainting/dizziness, warming sensation yet cold extremities. You're body is compensating trying to keep blood close to your core.

One of these days, I'll learn to trust my instincts.

My Ford wouldn't start this morning. Dman jinxed it. It gave me every symptom of bad batteries. Slow crank, etc. No big deal, I took dad's truck to school. So I spend 2 hours this afternoon checking the injector and glow plug wiring. Glow plugs and wiring are good. Terminals good. Try to jump batteries to no avail. Swap batteries with dad's truck. Lights like a top.

FML I'm way too good at this to be second guessing myself. :mad: :mad: :mad:

We tried to tell you not get rid of the Dodge, so you get what you deserve. :P

PS, why are you still here again? :lol:

He can stay Pete. It's always nice to bash a Ford owner

I don't think you'll ever get rid of me unless you bribe BC to ban me. :mrgreen:

Well he is looking to do a round of upgrades to his truck right? It might not be that hard to get him to accept a "donation". :lol:

Perfect time for that Cummins swap. :P :lol:

Oh, crap I thought you meant Caleb. Oh well, that would still probably be cheaper than keeping a powerstroke alive.

I'd have about $4000 in a 12v swap. I pretty seriously doubt that'll happen when a forged rod long block is $600-800. It's saddening because my mileage and torque would jump so much.
