New to diesel?
Just bought an 04 2500 5.9l motor built 01-2004 (not4.5)
Truly amazing! My commute to work today I got 23.4 mpg. The truck has 63k on it with a 5" procomp lift, banks exhaust, and intake. I have noticed the notorious front driveline drone at 60mph but it's not that bad.
New to diesel questions.....
I am curious why the truck has dual batteries. I am looking to monitor the EGT, boost, turbo time, ect. Is there an electronic monitor I can use that does not modify the ecu or add on. Just looking to monitor.

Uh, Cummins engines don't have glow plugs. Instead, they use a heating grid like a toaster. It's inside the black box that's by the intake manifold.
