Dear Customer,
If you have any questions
concerning the installation of
your Banks Big Hoss Module,
please call our Technical Service
Hotline at
(888) 839-2700 between 7:00 am
and 5:00 pm (PT). If you have any
questions relating to shipping
or billing, please contact our
Customer Service Department at
(888) 839-5600.
Thank you.
1.
For ease of installation of your
Banks Big Hoss Module, familiarize
yourself with the procedure by reading
the entire manual before starting
work. This instruction manual contains
16 pages of text, illustrations and parts
listing.
2.
Throughout this manual, the
left side of the vehicle refers to the
driver’s side, and the right side to the
passenger’s side.
3.
Disconnect the ground cable from
the battery before beginning work. If
there are two batteries, disconnect
both.
4.
Route and tie wires and hoses
a minimum of 6 inches away from
exhaust heat, moving parts and sharp
edges. Clearance of 8 inches or more
is recommended where possible.
5.
When raising the vehicle, support
it on properly weight-rated safety
stands, ramps or a commercial hoist.
Follow the manufacturer’s safety
precautions. Take care to balance the
vehicle to prevent it from slipping or
falling. When using ramps, be sure the
front wheels are centered squarely on
the topsides; put the transmission in
park; set the hand brake; and place
blocks behind the rear wheels.
CAUTION! Do not use floor jacks to
support the vehicle while working
under it. Do not raise the vehicle
onto concrete blocks, masonry
or any other item not intended
specifically for this use.
6.
During installation, keep your work
area and components clean to avoid
possible dirt entry into the engine.
7.
For proper performance from your
Banks Big Hoss Module and to prevent
engine damage, it is essential that
your engine’s fuel system be capable
of delivering fuel at the factory’s
specification. We have often found
vehicles with inadequate low pressure
side fuel delivery that isn’t apparent
until performance modifications are
made. It is very important that the
following fuel system components are
checked for proper operation before
completing the installation.
