Gotcha I will ask him about it thanks
No problem Tommy. I got a big cheetah comin now too

yeah you need same length different rate. id like to find the length and rate of that Bdog spring so i could just buy some.
i towed my buddys prerunner out to one of our ranches last weekend and when towing a trailer it doesnt lockup as hard but there is still that sperratic lockup at certain rpms and tps even with the trailer and then when the trailer is unhooked its back to hard lockups unless im at about 5% throttle and just creep up to 50 and going downhill...then can barely feel it...i think once i get this table from cindy for efi ill be able to soften it and fine tune it better...then wont even need to take out valve body but will have to run a tranny tune...
Yeah personally I dont like to mess with the ally TCM that much as EFI doesnt have a whole lot of options. I prefer hard parts as you know whats been changed, and can replace it if necessary. Bad TCM tuning can cause big breakages. If you did your own transgo jr. you could definately swap out the spring in the f solenoid with no problems
So far I have found that you cannot soften TCC with valve body. It must be done at the pump level.
acoombs im not sure...i dont think so...and i think with this new table cindy should be sending me soon i think it will fix it
So after testing the spring you suggested doesnt work? Thats the only difference in VB from mine to Chads and mine locks way softer.
I've tested a lot more than just the spring which is the same spring as the A/B trim valves. It cannot be done there. Your Alli and operating system is a lot different than Chads even though they look the same.
Do you think programming is the cause of the 1058 brutal lockup or is it the converter itself? So that spring that I thought would originally help doesnt? I dont have anything in the TCM to soften it either. Are they 6 speeds more prone to have TC lockup issues?
I can fix the problem internaly 2 different ways but am waiting to see if EFI can do it. Tristan is running the PI ML converter and that converter has never hit hard on tcc on any truck period.
Just locks up real hard? Do converters that do that ever soften up? Sorry for the million questions Mike
Tristian, I got the info, I'll email you the zip file shortly. Sorry for the delay - house rules are no programming on the weekends
Cheers
Cindy
