Does not sound like it is related to your downshifting problem. The switch cucvrus mentioned is the kickdown switch (attached to gas pedal) which downshifts when you floor it and tells the tranny to downshift and hold out the gear until higher rpms for maximum acceleration. downshifting when...

just a flooring update, I got the insulation down and the floor liner roughed in. really not an easy job and cutting for the bucket seat bracket was pretty dicey but I think I got everything where it wants to be but left some extra along the kick panel edges for when it mellows out a bit more. I...

no fins cast onto housing as described in pdf? The angle is supposed to let you know low or high stall.... (looking at the hub swirl counter clockwise = low and clockwise = high... just in case you missed hat bit and for anyone else who digs this up later) Just noticed you have a goodwrench...

I used the RetroSound RetroMod R-352N-ch 30 Watt 2-way 3.5" They fit, thank goodness there is not a lot going on under there but the dash pad came out to fit them and a 90' close quarters drill is a must. My 2c is consider looking into "hidden car stereos". I could not bring myself to hack up...

Killer deal! I found this that may help you id the TC. I have heard that they can be the same but then again, better safe than sorry. Good luck!

I got the bulk of the hard work done on the seat covers. Also I should have rough cut the fabric as it shrunk in one direction and really had me wondering if I would make it or need to change the design... all worked out well. I still need to make some adjustments as well as stitch the back seam...

not sure that would work but it could be worth a try, if you want it to read 90ohm at full and you bend the float upwards so the wiper is lower when full in relation to the float, then when the wiper would get to zero before the float travels all the way down. Wouldnt be too bad as you would...

this is on my eventual to-do list as well. Just throwing this out there for the fuel level monitoring end.... if you have a few extra bucks and the tank isnt in yet tou could ditch the float assembly that comes on the pickup (just not use it) and install a fuel cell style level sender. Would...

So much testing to do... There is some good flowcharts in the TMs that I would start with... Other than that, try opening the fuel bleed screw engine idling and see how it runs. If it starts to stumble at all with the air bleed open or if the fuel doesn't shoot out in a strong steady stream...

What precluded the no power above 35?

Since you changed to new injectors that have a higher Pop pressure, it may be coupling with worn timing components and retarding your set up too much. Maybe try making a good mark and advancing it a millimeter and see if there are any improvements? When you are trying to get above 40 is it...

yes, it is in the tank. replacing it may make it better but unless someone says they have perfect range after doing so on theirs then it is not going to fix it. here, worth a read. https://auto.howstuffworks.com/fuel-gauge1.htm I would imagine that these are not much different than the chevy...

just dont mention this :D

I agree with this BUT I would add that in my experience it is not necessarily the case where you can rely on a brand name and assume all will be well. TEST whatever you can. I have seen low mileage failures from german GPs, and Delcos... good to get in the routimne to test whatever you are able...

I second this.... removing GPS will make her spin quicker to work the air out and give you visual indicator of fuel (fog out GP holes when she is ready to plug back up. I have a quick method for GP testing... vise grips. Grab the hex with vise grips, will make it perfect length to touch the pos...

hahahha... is it a chevy 2000 or older? Yes, this is an issue :D if you were really persistent you COULD actually fix this. But I warn you it is not worth it.... easy way would be to rewind the resistor wire that the fuel sender wipes on. It is a 90ohm sending unit sou you could take it out...

If you have a TH400 I am not aware of a factory brace. There was not one for mine however for the 700r4 I retrofitted one was required. I suppose it would maybe fit with the th400 but I dont think it was oem until the lighter 700r4 came around and needed some help to resist being the weak link...

ya tried jumping on the bumper? I mean if nothing is caught up above the tranny near firewall and exhaust is disconnected.... and fan is free from shroud... all I could imagine would be an interference/seize at the mounts somehow? Maybe ratchet strap the frame downward?

I am mostly rep]lying to follow this thread in case there is an answer to your question. I would have to say that my guess would say not enough torque for whatever reason from motor. Usual torque converter failures are slippage relAted but I suppose something could be binding under load and...

Just finished making patterns and cutting out the parts. I just want something to go over the originals as the off the shelf ones I had fit horrible and I always have my dog who is copilot and takes the command chair when I leave the truck. The originals are in great shape so something to...
