  1. 1st: I've had this problem periodically now pretty much ever since I started modding. If I launch from a dig and go through the gears, no issue shifting into 3rd/4th. Shift point is 5700-5800 going into 3rd. If Im in 3rd or 4th gear and and floor the pedal the truck shifts in to 2nd perfect but sometimes not all the time truck will hang on in 2nd for about 2-3 seconds then shift into 3rd. I see the rpms completely pegged at 6K. At this point even if i let off the throttle the truck still doesnt automatically shift into 3rd.

     

    Again it isnt all of the time or even that often. It's not my daily driver, or even my 2nd car right now but I noticed it again this morning driving down the freeway.

     

    Side notes: My converter is definately on its way out but again its been doing this for 2+ years. Also I don't think its a tuning issue as it was the same with my Nelson tune and Blackbear tune. In fact in street tuning with Justin we couldnt duplicate the problem.

     

    2nd: This has happened probably 6 - 10 times in the lifetime I've owned this truck. Under very light acceleration from a stop, the truck will not shift into second. RPM's climb and then truck act's like its shifting right to 3rd gear. Continue on, no biggie, usually doesnt happen for a few months later.

     

    I do have the transgo HD2-C shift kit plus servos but I cannot remember if I have the metal accumlators installed.

     

    Any idea's would be great! :cheers:

  2. None of the Mods are going to admit to who deleted the 2 posts......... Pathetic

     

    maybe they got lost....there was a post from mervz saying that alot of posts from 2 nights ago and yesterday we're gone for good from server crash.

  3. gl with your goal...i quit smoking this past year and probably gained another 20 lbs to an already not small frame so i can really sympathize with you.

     

    for me, keys have always been excersize, eating smaller meals (5-6 small meals a day), no meals after 6:00 pm, drink lots of water, no booze and in a few months you'll be feeling like a new man.

  4. seeing Porno Joe's snap on post reminded me that I still have this thing taking up space. Couldnt find my old post with it for sale but if anyone is interested I still have it:

     

    Paid 10K for it brand new in 03 or 04...used very little as I have been out of the auto field for some time now.

     

    Will take anything north of 5k and it does not include any tools. Again, its paid for and I dont have to sell it but like everyone could use the money. Im in Northern California.

     

    this is box #2271 of 4200 built.

  5. dude i don't agree with what the other guy said, but why do have to bring up the color of someones skin. He said nothing about it, he could mean a million different things besides his skin color! :nonod:

     

    he could mean a million different things? be serious. I can read between the lines as can a lot of other intelligent people on this forum.

     

    why does it bother me? because I'm white as a ghost living in a pretty racially mixed of northern california and most people I know (white/black/brown/yellow/green/whatever) could see between the lines and know what this person was thinking....oh and I voted for Obama too. :seeya:

  6. with the 26 inch rims, im guessing he is an Obama voter, so im wondering why the drug dealer didnt paint it maroon?

     

    truck's ugly but

     

    what's wrong with voting for Obama? drug dealer? don't see how the two are related unless we're trying to read between the lines about your opinions of a person's skin color.
