    Manual Swap w/ Speedometer?

    Well I was rummaging around at the local salvage yard today and found a dirt cheap 454, so I might need the nv4500 to handle the torque.

    Manual Swap w/ Speedometer?

    I've got a 1991 C1500 reg cab truck that I am currently doing body/paint for, I was thinking about refreshing the drivetrain while I already was working on it. It's got 200,000 miles on the original 305 motor and 700r4 transmission, so I won't feel too guilty about taking it apart. I want to...

    The Stupid Engine Questions Thread

    I’ve got a 1991 c1500 with a high mileage 305 and was considering a 350 replacement engine. Will my pcm be compatible with the increase in cubic inches? I have a set of 350 tbi injectors I intend to use, but otherwise I’m not sure what would need replacement.

    Code 44 91 C1500

    Would be great, I've been trying to figure it out for some time. I do have a spare ignition coil and ICM I could try. Maybe there will be a difference there. However, everything on my ignition system was replaced just a couple months ago.

    Code 44 91 C1500

    I’m using the reddevilriver scan tool with tunerpro. All of my sensor data seems pretty normal. Fuel trims in closed loop are hanging around 128. My cap, rotor, and plugs, were replaced over the summer. I haven’t tested the coil with a spark tester but my spark seems to be pretty strong. My...

    Code 44 91 C1500

    I’m been having trouble getting my truck to run correctly. I have an idle surge and it starts rough on cold mornings. I occasionally get code 44 lean exhaust. My fuel pump, fuel filter, O2 sensor, and many other parts are less than a year old. It holds perfect vacuum according to a diagnostic...

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    Alright, after taking the resistor out and resetting the IAC yet again, my idle seems to be perfect, KC are next to nothing, engine is pulling strong as ever. The distributor seemed to be the culprit of all my idle issues. Thanks to everyone who helped out and gave me advice.

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    I always had one KC when starting. I will pull the resistor and see if that was a fluke, my exhaust is mounted rock solid So that shouldn’t be an issue. I can’t hear an audible knock or or anything out of the ordinary.

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    Knock counts are way high mine are 0. When it see knock it pulls timing. Tps voltage at idle should be .50 to .60 you might double check that also. Strangely it runs way better without the ALDL cable plugged in, why could that be? Possibly the wrong cable for my ECM or the service mode messing...

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    I just noticed my TPS % shows 30% with no input and 220% at WOT. Hmmmm My idle also seems to rise whenever I plug in the ALDL cable.

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    Still having issues and I’ve been messing with the IAC more, but I took a 20 minutes drive through stop and go traffic and highway. Doubled checked my base timing (0°). And my datalogging showed this: TPS Voltage @ idle: in the .55 to .59 depending on set screw adjustment IAC position @ idle in...

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    Sure enough, one of the magnets was badly damaged, I swapped my distributor last night and idle quality is definitely improved, I will take a closer look tonight and report my findings.

    No dice with the gasket change, I don’t know how old this distributor is but it is probably an older unit.

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    Big update: Actually found something that would affect my idle. I noticed the top of my injector pod was saturated in fuel, meaning the gasket isn’t holding a seal. I will replace the gaskets and report the results.

    Diagnosing Rough Idle Hell

    When I got my IAC position near 0, the idle was way too high.
