That really sucks.

 

 

I see smiley faces around your posts Bill????????????

 

Satch, it could be worse.

Like working on a Furd or Cheby.

 

Hey Bill

Are you going to KRC ? Another question.... Did you get a tranz from Paramount?

 

Hey Mutt, I was hoping to have destroyed a tranny or two by now and having the Paramount at least ordered.

You may have to be at the front of the line on this one.

KRC - yes sir!

 

Ya know... For what it is worth... All these 545 tranz that keep messing up... I might just look into the Nag1 swap. The Jeep and LX guys don't seem to have any problems.. I was at the track a few weeks back and there was a Charger making pass after pass.. hitting the juice...chirping tires with street slicks.. He was running high 11's all day.... Not one single problem...

I wonder what all would be involved in a swap..

I figure driveshaft..mount..electronics..tuneing..

But those tranz don't have the speed sensor...therefor they won't work hua? Still wanna look into it. Maybe by nw someone has that problem solved..or is thinking about it

 

. I hear ya.

Bills Paramount builds are holding up real well in the LX world. I have faith we can be just as happy with his builds in our trucks.

 

Think I will go with what ever Marty sez for sure. I did something wrong a few weeks back and I have the truck so far out of tune it isn't even funny.. It will start now but after the idle goes down to 700 it goes real rich and stalls. I have taken the plugs out 2 times to clean already.. Check out these codes...An can't get rid of them

p0406 ex gas recirculation sensor a curcuit high

p0403 ex gas recir control curcuit

p3449 cyl 7 deactivation/intake valve control curcuit

p3441 cyl 6 deactivation/intake valve control curcuit

p3425 cyl 4 deactivation/intake valve control curcuit

p3401 cyl 1 deactivation/intake valve control curcuit

p0300 random misfire detected

 

Looks to all be a result of the 300 misfires.

When you coming down this way???

 

Bill, do you have to pull the engine?

 

Very nice truck Mutt.

 

Yes the motor is out and spread out all over the place. Back to the drawing board....so to speak.

Making progress each day.

 

That sux.......I hope its something major and not some little something that has caused this. All the work for something little would pi$$ me off.

 

I hope you didn't have the same problem with your pistons as I had with my Diamond pistons.

I know Marty is there to help you. But, if you need a helping hand or a gofor, "go for coffie, go for BK, some one that's in the way all the time,

ect, ect," give me a call.

 

Big time thanks for the offer Stu.

When everything comes back in, we may plan a full day of wrenching.

Shame we had pull the motor out to change the dip stick tube.

Knuckles vs Dip stick handle. Knuckles wins.

I'll be in ready standby Dr. Frankenstein.

As Charlston Heston said, Damn Those Dirty Dipsticks!

 

any updates......

 

 

Re-assembly underway. Replacement dipstick tube received. Want to replace the main bolts before buttoning up the bottom. Putting the heads back on this week. Be back in the engine bay by the end of the week for sure.

Just like below!
