Its a dually, thats all they had in 01 3500's IIRC. Its 4x4, but then so is mine, and I'm pulling 19.8 avg on trips, where he's doing a best of 13 on trips.
It sometimes doesn't set a code. It can run fine otherwise. See:
Good info, I'll pass it along. If the 1.9 mpg improvement that Marco got (link on Fritz's site) is seen by my friend, he'll definitely be happy.
