Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Pulled the 350 to ship off for repairs. Getting cam and valvetrain gone over / replaced. Fely good to be wrenching on the ol gal. Now I have to see what all I will need to fix or replace while the engines out.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
You should open a new thread in the electrical section for this. Have you tested the voltage output of your charging system both at an idle and at driving speed?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
100% won't be the starter causing charging system problems, it would have to run with the engine and you would know that.
