    Help: Yay I Think I Need Head Gaskets

    im always encouraging people to DIY so if you have mechanical skills and tools, youll be OK. But its still not fun and takes time. However in the end you have the cost of two gaskets, all the bolts, the coolant, and any tools you have to buy that you dont have. O yea and some Right Stuff...

    Ive got a smokey idle too

    Okay guys I just figured it out tonite. I feel dumb. I decided to follow a tip i got by altering to thuining to make up for the modded regulator. So I connected to it with the DVT and tried lowring the pressure at idle and nothing changed, then i decided to see what it would do if i raised it...

    Allison 5sp: tranny fuild pan gasket

    ^^^ yep You can get the pan gasket at the local auto parts store, when i got a filter kit for a truck it came with one for some reason, they must think it needs to be replaced.

    Allison 5sp: 05 Tranny Cooler Plugged

    ^^^exactly im still wondering if its that converter. But anyways, I tore into it tonite some and the front little cooler was fine, removed it and blew through it just fine. I then took mikes advice and removed the return line from the tranny and attached a 5/8 clear hose to it and ran it into...

    if im looking at the right PID it is fluctuating some. if it was a valid attachment i would attach a log but i see it is not.

    okay i see i logged the commanded current, but i dont see a PID for the actual current. Am I missing it. And when I do log it what am I looking for??

    yes I did, i believe we discussed it either in this thread or a different one. Ill log the current next time, I might have Ill go look, but ill make sure to next time.

    WTF I just looked at one of my logs and this CP3 is acting weird. At one point my actual pressure just randomly decides to climb to 18,500psi with 0% throttle and back down again steadily.

    i think the rod thing was a joke. I dont remember what grade they were I would have to look at the invoice or call guy. I adjusted all of the valves due to the thicker gaskets. I wonder if maybe I didnt tighten one down or something though.

    sounds like my current combo, stock PYOs with almost no clear coat and 265 transforces because i needed the H2 rims for the pulling tires. I liek the new H2 rims, maybe ill get me a set for everyday driving.

    if you wheel fell off it would scratch those fancy new flares. They dont look too shabby. But definately need something different to fill the wheel wells, I thought you had some big rims and tires back in the day?? Maybe im wrong, or just not caught up.

    Ive got a smokey idle too

    yes it does, for some reason it was commanding that much. My tune didnt call for it but it decided to, then it went down. I dont know How I couldve bent a rod without running it, unless i bent one with the stock charger before i pulled it out. but, I know the protrusion was within spec when...

    It started out at 18,100 when I first was running it and noticing this issues. After flashing a tune in it 3 different times(unaltered tune) it decided to go back down to between 4800 and 5000
