    LBZ: Electrical gremlins... Help p0652

    Perform a voltage drop test on the grounds. But because P0652 is a 5v ref circuit, any of the components on that circuit can cause this code to set. The APP sensor 2, A/C pressure sensor, Oil pressure sensor, and fuel rail pressure sensor can have a circuit with a chafed wire in it causing...

    Torque converter selection

    If Evan is close to you make the drive. I took a 7 hour drive to Mike L and glad I did. As far as a TC goes my vote is Goerend. I don't think a converter can perform any better

    Lly trouble codes need help please

    And I believe when you push in on the sensor after removing it, it should be grounded. So basically just push the sensor plunger down on top of the turbo while monitoring feedback. But, I'm in agreement with IOWA here. I've split some turbos and found the unison ring slightly warped when...

    Allison 5sp: 1/4" checkball in accumulator cup

    Not trying to speak for Mike but I believe the software is plenty capable of adapting and learning to adapt on its own during a drive cycle. Mine is a 2001. Learned pretty quick I thought

    LML Weird Accelerator Pedal shudder under load

    Don't know if this is any help but one time I faced this on a 2015 one of the differential pressure sensor pipes cracked in the exhaust system and the way it resonated and transferred to cab felt like in pedal.

    Descisions descions, help me decide

    My vote is LBZ. I actually prefer the seats in the 2003-2007 classic body trucks. And LML do have some issues of the injection pump going bye bye and taking out your whole fuel system with it. I'm not a fan of dual EGR coolers. And I don't like the reductant system nor the DPF. But I am in CA so...

    A Day with MikeL

    Just yesterday had the staff at Inglewood Transmission build my Allison 5 speed. I spent the whole day there with Mike and the experience and gained knowledge is all worth it. I'm a dealer tech and Mike had so much info I felt like a student again. For what Mike L and the crew did for me, I feel...

    MT653 shifting wrong

    My thoughts here are that the stator could be freewheeling at all times. Usually leads to poor acceleration at low speeds and from a stop but vehicle will act normally up around 30-40mph or so.

    LB7: Replaced injectors and now have off the wall balance rates.

    I'd suggest using a tech 2 if the stealership wouldn't mind letting you check out balance rates really quick. But, I agree the thefermanator here as well. Cheap remans never seem to pan out. But also, one of the checks that us dorks at the dealers are suppose to do is perform a compression test...

    LBZ: 200k mile LBZ low rail pressure

    What about ramping up rail pressure at idle? Command fuel pressure regulator all the way up at idle and what is actual vs desired. Only suggesting this cause I've had vehicles that could make commanded pressure at idle but not under load. Also have you put a vacuum/pressure gauge on test port...
