When I am on a hill and my truck spikes over 15psi it is throwing a boost sensor code. I read in another post that some people replace there boost sensor with a 3 bar sensor to keep the ecm from coding. Is this really possible? If so where can I get the part?
Just fired my truck up and went to put her in reverse. Went right in 10 seconds after starting and its 15 degrees out. Must have been a plugged filter. Thanks again guys
Changed the fluid and filter today. Truck seems to shift better. The fluid wasnt chunky or off smelling. It was still cherry red but I guess i'll see tmmrw am if my reverse issue has been solved
It was warm out today and the truck drove flawlessly start to finish. No codes whatsoever.Monday I will change the fluid/filter and test it. Just in case I was looking at tranny prices. I love these trucks
When i start the truck in the morning if I dont let it warm up for a while. It wont "bump" into reverse and I have to hit the gas to get it to go backward. So I normally back it in at night. Another day it did this when I went to take off going forward as well then once it was warm it was ok...
For DD experiences. I started with the vac system and ended up making a turbomaster. The ecm was tuned to max out at 15 psi. Tc set to lock at 47mph. So far the tune works great. My rig has gone from slow to fast for a truck. Turbomaster set to max out at 14psi. She sits you in the seat some now...
Im going to stick with my current setup. It doesnt hit 15 unless im on a steep hill od locked. I dont beat on it often or tow. I just wanted piece of mind till I can go with an hx40II. Thanks
I have heard so many different opinions on what is a safe boost pressure for the 6.5. I have also heard that its not the boost that blows your motor but the heat that goes along with it. This sounds pretty believable but then Kojo tells me that anything over 12psi is dangerous. First I will say...
It sustains 15 psi wot and spikes to 17psi when the tc locks. Is there a procedure to clear this cel? I dont have access to a scanner today and my boost solenoid plug wasnt clicked in all the way
Well. I found out today that if Im on a hill and I hit tc lockup wot my boost spikes to 17psi for a second. It sustains about 14-15psi. How bad is this setup. Can I run it like this If I keep egt's down?
So today I installed my gauges. Turned out I was spiking 2.5psi from the start. I made a turbomaster that allows me to spike 13psi and hold 11psi. Holy crap this is how its supposed to be! Thanks again!
