Accomplished

Well today i changed out the govenor solenoid and sensor, wow what a difference. The tranny now shifts as if it was new, and it was sooo easy to do. Just a pitb to drop the oil and remove pan again cause i just changed oil last weekend. Hopefully it will last me awhile and save myself a few grand.

Good to hear!! I just had my tranny/transfer case/Diffs serviced today at Dominion in Calgary, it was uber cheap and fast. They were recomended to me by a few people and my dad used to go there so I thought I would give them a try. 198 bucks out the door and the tranny feels like the day I got it!! Everything is so much smoother and positive feeling!
Lets try and keep this good news going, I'm sick of having bad luck then going on here and seeing some people in even worse shape!!

Just checking buddy. I haven't done a burnout since the last time you & I hooked up. At least your not babing that beasty. You get your stereo all fixed up? I pulled 35psi yesterday coming home from work, the truck is way to fast for me.
Pulled into my garage, and had to look for coolant or oil drips, still nothing. I'm gonna put in the DDP stage 3 sticks shortly and see if I can get some black soot to come out of the tail pipe.

Sounds like your just like me, i love doing burn out's. The wife says i need to stop showing off, 3 sets of tires last year isnt going to happen this year. . I agree 3 sets is too much money now a days.

Well I did a decent burnout on the way home on Thursday. For a stock truck, I was pretty impressed, I got about 10 to 15 feet, dual tire marks. It didn't peel the rubber off like it did earlier in the year, but it still did one.

Fred, you coming to the AFI dyno outting? Fast Freddy does like to baby the princess these days. We did a quick turbo swap on Tates dually. The truck moves out pretty good. It was nice to feel the power from one of these trucks again.
