    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    They did a shift kit, heavy duty clutch packs and a lot of other things, I'd have to grab the receipt to look at it all, but they are the same shop that rebuilt one for my buddy in his 90 suburban that I've Made a few threads on here for (he finally sold it a few months ago) and his held up...

    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    They can be built to hand respectable power and people like them for the gearing over the 80e. I would have swapped it if I had the time but oh well, maybe I'll get to it next time

    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    Just wanted to give an update, I ended up having the trans rebuilt due to time constraints and while that was being taken care of I decided to finally Crack the heads off the motor and fix what I thought to be a bad head gasket after cooking the motor to the point that the stock exhaust...

    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    I have access to a very low miles ls3 for a good price (my engine is also in really rough shape after teenage me beat the living snot out of it) with a trans and absolutely all the wiring for it only problem is I have a 4x4 so I assume I'd need a different output shaft and adapter for the...

    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    It's a light duty 2500, it's a 3/4 ton with six lug axles. And half ton drivetrain, I had a guy who built transmissions for my dad and he did all of dad's racing transmissions, tough as nails! However he isn't doing it anymore as he is in his 80s now. So I figured I would give it a shot, I...

    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    After some more digging I found out that the free floating check ball is the reverse/low check ball that is supposed to be secured, I found that some people pull that one out as it was found to get stuck and burn the low and reverse clutches. Is this true?

    Burned out my 4l60e... again

    My 93 ld2500 crapped out my 4l60e again and this time I decided to rebuild it myself. I'm in the middle of the teardown to find out that out of 8 check balls in the valve body I had 7, removed the top half of the valve body and found number 8 where it should be (que sigh of relief) only one...

    Wont start

    Alright, replaced the prom still having the same issue, every ground I have found is clean. If I manually ground the injectors they spray just fine still, could it be the pigtails at the injectors, they physically LOOK okay but I'm still wondering

    Never mind, they are getting 11.76 volts, it's not grounding out in the ecm properly, maybe it's the prom as mentioned above

    Alright, so after way to long screwing with this suburban on and off again I have injector pulse, 12 psi after the fuel pump but now not enough fuel coming out of the injectors. If I put power to the injectors via a wire to the battery, the injectors open all the way and the truck starts and...

    Well then I'll have to hook a fuel pressure gauge up to it myself, his shop told him he's running over 40 now right at the back of the throttle body so I guess I'll have to see when I get the chance to hook it up

    The tech at the shop he's working at originally tested fuel pressure at the throttle body, it came back to 12 pounds, they told him it wasn't enough and that's why it wasn't getting fuel, so they had him buy a new pump and they tested pressure again and got over 40 pounds. They were trying to...

    He's got over 40 lbs Tested from the back of the throttle body by the shop he works at, I'm currently driving and need a few minutes but I'll explain in a second. His shop totally screwed him with this one and I'm just trying to figure it out for him.

    Well its what I thought was good pressure because the guys at the shop he works at said that it's supposed to have over 40 pounds! The "master" tech had him buy a new pump because he was getting 12 pounds of pressure and now he's getting around that for fuel pressure. Thought that was nuts so I...

    Thanks for all the help guys, I learned a bunch of information thats going to be useful in the future that I otherwise would not have known. This forum has taught me a lot about my favorite truck so far, can't wait to get some cash in my pocket and start a build on it

    Its 3-2 control solenoid open or short circuit its down shift. Either way I replaced the throttle position sensor just to see if it would help, then it threw another code for said sensor. So I cleaned up the old one and put it back in. Trans is shift good through all gears now

    So I didn't know this but if you bridge the obd1 scanner prongs (the two on the top row and furthest on the right) and the check engine light flashes a certain amount of times to give you your code I got 6 flashes and another 6 flashes, that's code 66 which indicates an open or short circuit in...

    I think it has an electrical problem because both solenoids are brand new and tested good before they were put in the truck, and after the battery is disconnected for 30 minutes it works properly only until it shifts out of first the first time, after that I only have 2nd and 3rd

    So I unplugged the battery for 30 minutes and took the truck around the block after. It worked! Then back to limp mode immediately.... crap.

    Lost 1st and 4th

    So this happened directly after my alternator went bad just last week so I'm wondering if something to do with that made the ECU shot off power to the trans and just never let it get power back. I'm gonna disconnect my battery for 30 minutes and see if it changes anything

    Don’t seem to be getting fuel

    Check your ignition fuse should be in the fuse box in the cab labeled IGN (went weeks throwing money at my pickup until I double checked my fuses) also check and test your fuel pump relay
