01-04 SuperCharged models that where factory equipted with a flux compasitor need to have vacume preasure levels checked before turning 50k, and again at 100k. Since this is a little known thing, I guess i should add it too....

If your 01-04 S/C is so equipted, you need to remove the air box lid, and remove the filter. You will then have complete access to the flux box, which will have three separate vacume lines running to it. The middle line has a valve stem type dealy on it that you can use a regular air preasure gauge to read the preasure. When the vehicle is at normal running temp, the preasure gauge should read 14lbs. And of course, when the truck is not running, the preasure will be 0lbs. When key is on, but truck not started, you will get a 3lbs reading....

IF.... if for some reason this is not reading correctly, get to a dealer immediately, as vacume leaks in the flux box could cause your halogyn fluid to clog the EPO lines, and through time, you could end up replacing your flux compasitor itself.

Hope this helps.
