    Rebuilt trans stalls in drive and dies.

    I’m terrible about finishing posts, just an update that Mike was right and it was mostly my fault in the reassembly process. Hard parts were fine but I was given a wrong solenoid from the parts store and didn’t realize it because the clerk had written on the box which solenoid went where, I...

    Rebuilt trans stalls in drive and dies.

    I’ll be able to drain it here in couple hours and pull it to have a look. Also, I thought it to be extremely strange not having a single code stored. I pretty much came straight here as I didn’t have any guidance, I’d at least been able to cross reference with the ATSG books and every code...

    Rebuilt trans stalls in drive and dies.

    Really hope that isn’t the case though I had a slight concern with not going the Suncoast or Goerend route. I used this company because of trying to stay local with all this crap going on, they do a massive amount of GM (mostly 4l60 and 80) and had done a few Allison’s and some Cummins trans.

    Rebuilt trans stalls in drive and dies.

    Update. I don’t know how I missed this but my reverse has the wheels moving forward. Neutral has the wheels ever so slightly, and I mean very slight, moving forward. Then when drive is selected the truck dies. I get that because this is my first build I’ve got a 99% chance I messed up...

    Rebuilt trans stalls in drive and dies.

    2003. Oddly no codes were present when I scanned with my v2 earlier. Just checked again with nothing. However the truck ran for a few seconds before wanting to stall, I turned it off before it could. It was in park.

    Rebuilt trans stalls in drive and dies.

    The title is the just of it I just finished a rebuild on my trans and installed it today. First time doing this but with the help of the ATSG book, Raybestos paperwork, some videos and the forums, I felt confident enough that I’d done a good job. As of right now I have about 20 ish quarts...

    04 lb7 stuck in third, with no reverse?

    It would be cool if it were something simple, however, last time I saw this happen it cost me the price of a PPE Stage 4 trans kit. :D Kinda sounds like you're used to getting into it, with it being tuned and all, so with that in mind it might just actually be toast.

    Yup, same situation almost. A lot has crossed my mind in trying to figure this out and the possibility of having bum injectors was one of them. Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk

    It's just got me stumped seeing that this is the state of it right after putting everything together. It didn't run like this with the old injectors, they were just badly worn. I guess it's totally possible the damage was already done by the previous ones and I just never noticed it. I have...

    Yeah I saw that they were right on the cusp of in spec by 50psi. That's a bummer if that's the case but not shocking I suppose. Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk

    Umm, not sure really. No track time but a few good launches with the stocks. And some cruising fun here and there. 230k on the clock though, so this has already had me thinking that some valve train components, rings, maybe the rods, are tired by now or hurting. Sent from my SM-N920T using...

    Need some thoughts/input. Truck went down for injectors about a month ago. Bought some used 50s from a member on here and had them tested by Exergy. They aren't Exergy's but they said the injectors tested pretty good. Sent them back nice and clean with spec sheet. Got everything...

    That looks sweeeet. Nice job. Did you space the rear any or leave as is? Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

    Injector stuck in cup

    Did the prybar method a few times under the fuel inlet tab part of the injector body, if they're still in the head. One came out and what a pain it was to separate the 2 afterwards. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

    Major fuel leak underload?

    Thanks for all the info guys. I didn't have time to mess with it at all this weekend, which drove me nuts. I'll have some time tonight though. The Cyl 5 spot was one of the previous leak areas that I thought was corrected, didn't show signs of leaking until this whole ordeal happened on...

    Major fuel leak underload?

    Yea will do. Just got it on a tow truck and looking underneath, everything is soaked back to my bumper. Still started after waiting forever, so it's holding prime. lemonade stand

    Major fuel leak underload?

    Since I recently did injectors, I'm thinking this issue is coming from something I did wrong just need some advice as to what. Maybe hard lines? Even though I reseated the few that showed signs of leaking. Maybe the filter head? Idk. The only reason I say hard lines is that cyl 5 is wet at the...

    Combine a nice wire tuck with that sweet, sweet, engine bay refreshment you did and you're in business. Looks awesome! :thumb:
