Re: having issues

yea i came to that conclusion when the ones i talked to said "i dont know to much about those trucks but you can bring it in and we can give it a try" :rotf:

i dont know for sure it has a shift, just goin off the way it shifts, dont know much about these trucks and havent drivin one in aloooong time but ones ive driven in the past didnt shift as stiff as this one does.. i was gona take to my trans guy this weekend let him go over it make sure everything is good and he woulda told me for sure if it has one..

as much stuff as i have had to replace.. there is no way this truck has ran in a while.. alteast not what the car lot said that i bought it from.. they said it ran and drove perfect when they got until head gasket blew.. thats total BS :tdown: .. i think they bought it non running as was gona fix it till they seen what all was wrong..

i will say by the time i actually get this to where its spose to be.. most everything will be new.. lol

If I were you I would pull your ecm and check what chip is installed. If there's a Kenne Bell Chip installed I would replace it or have it reburned with Knock Retard enabled immediately.

im pretty sure its programmed for that already.. i mean id assume so since they took it out .. i didnt take it out.. ill check the ecu though when i get it back up to the shop.. what should i replace it with if it has the keeny bell chip?

If it is a Kenne Bell you would need a stock memcal with a custom burned chip piggybacked onto that. Hopefully there's already a custom chip in there, but that doesn't mean that its a great or safe tune.

The safest thing to do would be to get Datamaster and/or Tunerpro and start logging your runs (once you get the engine running properly of course) and submit those files to someone like Nolan at Campbell Automotive and have him tweak the tune or learn to tune it yourself.
