I am fresh off an engine rebuild, where I installed a LCE Pro Torquer cam. My TPS has been verified to be in proper position (rig), all three shift/lock-out solenoids have been replaced, along with fresh fluids and a new filter.


Ok, to the issue. Over 60mph with the O/D on, I have no power. At 65 I struggle to even maintain speed on level ground, if I am heading up hill I will lose speed like no other. When the truck is cold, on occasion, when starting from a dead stop the truck feels like is slips longer then normal.


Also, there seems to be a dead spot in the RPM range. I don't have a Tach so the numbers will be made up, but between 2k and 2.5k it feels like a toad. As soon as I turn past 2.5 thing turns into a rocket.


Further more, the truck doesn't seem to shift into 4th with the O/D off, and will not downshift unless I come to a complete stop.


Unless there is something I am missing, there seems like there is only really three options left, rebuild, torque converter, or TCM. Any input would be super helpful. Thanks in advance

 

You check the codes it's throwing? Maybe solenoids.

 

Check your TPS, is very important on auto trans. to have the tps checked,adjusted and or replaced. http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CheapTricks/TPS/index.shtml

 

Checking a TPS on a 3vze using 4Crawler's method is a real chore, mainly because of the angle of the connector.

But if you have the A340H, you don't have to do that -- the transmission will (almost) check it for you! http://web.archive.org/web/201408160...34electron.pdf Since this is an end-to-end test, it's much better than putting an ohmmeter directly on the TPS. And LOTS easier.

 

When i adjust or replace my TPS i take the throttle body off on my 22re, because of the same reason it's a real pain adjusting it on the truck.

 

TPS has been adjust previously, and the trans is not throwing codes.
