    Is the part# GEP18002829 a NON-ADJUSTABLE TPS ??

    Has anyone purchased/used the GEP18002829 Throttle Position Sensor? If so, did it work ok? Did you try to set the voltages? Recently purchased a TPS from KASCAR. The part I received is part# GEP18002829. Not the 12554488 that is currently on my truck. Ok, so maybe just a new part # from GEP...

    Block Heater location marked with a painted "X" ?

    Was thinking of installing a block heater in my 6.5 gep engine. Seems that the center plug on the driver side is a typical location. That plug has a painted "X" over it. Anyone else seen this? Not sure if this was a mark to say "Put it here" or something else. Any ideas?
