just an update trans had a bad solenoid and ended up getting stuck in 2nd gear. took it to the shop and 300$ later its shifting perfectly

stat temp, 195. but what gets me is they were never that high before not even in the summer.

also like to add that the temp sensor is in the pressure test port.

ok so my wife took my 95 K2500 to work the other morning and had to come back home cause it would not shift past 2nd gear, mind u it was 0 degrees. i looked at it that evening and had no problems with it. i checked the fluid and test drove it with no problems. now a week later i noticed that it...

well ordered a new down pipe from SS diesel. and a buddy gave me the 4" tailpipe from his F-350 going to try and fit it up and come out with a 4" exhuast. though about taking my cross over pipe to my exhuast shop and seeing if they can make me a new one.

ok i'll try that. it wasnt like i was loosing boost it just seemed that once the IAT raised to operating temp the computer would not let the truck boost. (like if i was cruising along 40 mph mashed the petal to the floor rpm way up still no boost, but if the engine was cool i could turn out the...

oh ya planning on finishing the TM before towing for sure just wanted to see the boost gauge move a little. EGT probe mounted pre-turbo passenger side just below turbo. right at the little square stamp mark.

ok so got all the gauges up and running today didnt get to the turbo master. but the first test drive out. the boost would go up to 12psi max during initial acceleration. but after that nothing until the truck was shut off and restarted. so i wired the waste gate shut and boost readings were...

well got the gauges in gotta finish the rest tomorrow along with that fan clutch mod. looked up a few codes as well for the rear axle gears its got 3.73 which is ok i guess rather have 4.10 but those arnt as good for the fuel mileage. one question tho when i looked it up it said this AXLE REAR...

ya i have been lurking though the tech library for a little while picking out things here and there to do. thanks for the information too. the Tstat is from SSdiesel.

well i just put in a 180 therm, and a water pump for a 97 for some higher flow so i was told thinking about the Dmax fan set up but gotta wait for funds. just this past week i installed new larger coolers for engine and trans, the deep trans pan and a new condenser (there fore im broke now)...

ok still learning about these motors. all i really wanna gain is to get rid of the surging boost. and last year pulling my 2 horse trailer (5000 gvrw) up a steady hill the truck fell on its face. but that was right after i got it and nothing had been done to it performance wise. i thought my...

sorry did it right after i posted.

yeah directly above the front axle shaft like a 1 1/4" nut

was your filter housing a pain to get lose mines being a bit stubbern and im affraid to crack it with a impact but the 2ft breaker isnt doing it. any tips?

planning on installing my DIY TM this weekend along with POT boost fooler what would be the best approach a tuning it in with out hurting some thing. my bigest question is if i turn the boost up to say 15psi max, and the POT is not turned up high enough to fool it and it trips the SES...
