hey Ben, do you know if I can re-calibrate the throttle pedal with a SnapOn handheld? I want it to re-learn idle and WOT positions. Also, it feels like I'm in 2nd gear by the time I hit 5mph. Stupid hang ups, glad it's 2wd and doesn't need to make BB16

 

[Babaganoosh]

Hmmm maybe, depends on the scanner, some you can only do basic stuff. Do you have a model number?

Bring it over and I'll do it with the GM Tech 2

Sorry to hear about the luck Ben. I know id be pretty frustrated.

It sucks for sure but what ever I'll be back on the road soon.

With moving into the house my budget for this is almost nothing.

nope, it's at my driveline guy's shop. He would let me use it though. It's like the size of a tissue box, 11 x 6 x 2 abouts. dammit lol.

OHH it re-calibrated my crank sensor before, following the steps it told me to do while plugged in.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Most scanners won't even do that, I bet you would be able to.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Not a lot of pictures that have been posted. Here is one from today, dropped the pan and was working magic with the multi meter through all the wiring and solenoids.

 

[sreidmx]

You should pull it out and light it on fire. Trans oil is smokey. So when you going nv4500 those don't have any solenoids to go bad.

 

[Babaganoosh]

I don't want a manual in this at all. It Wil for ever be a automatic.

 

[sreidmx]

manual valve body for the win!

 

[Babaganoosh]

If I do that then I have no reason for a auto and will do a manual trans swap.

Trans builder said pull it out and he will charge me $100 to fix it.

 

[GWeakland620]

Wow, that's great dude!

 

[Babaganoosh]

It's kind of sad when people feel bad for you they almost fix it for free.

He said pay him when ever...

 

[max 02]

That's not sad....just never forget!

 

[Babaganoosh]

Absolutely, I'll take care of him and anyone else that I can.

 

[blazinzuk]

Yep. I have had lots of help over the years. Sometimes those helping me will never get paid back. Some will. But I try to pass on as much good fortunecas possible.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Agreed, I borrowed a torque wrench and slipped a 20 in the case with a note your next meal is on me thank you.

I believe in what goes around comes around.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Trans is coming out tomorrow, will give me a excuse to do other things I didn't get to before. So it really isn't such a bad thing after all.

You get bored you're welcome to come over and give me a hand..

 

[Babaganoosh]

Haha, I'll have my hands full for sure, my transportation lately has been very poor. It is hard for me to get around. Where abouts in Glendale are you?
