Then the Esky started acting up. She called me and said it was making a funny noise and didn’t want to go. I told her to try and make it home. Codes:
P1175 fuel trim balance bank 2
P0521 oil pressure sensor/switch circuit range performance
P0523 oil pressure sensor/switch circuit hi volt
P0700 TCM request MIL
Then these trans codes
P0796 control solenoid C perf/stuck off
P0872 trans fluid pressure sensor/switch C circuit low
So I looked at what scanner said for oil pressure and it read 129PSI. So I put a sensor in it. Then the scanner read 52PSI like it should. Went to take it for a ride and wouldn’t go into reverse. No codes. I had to raise idle to get it to move. Shit!!
What a joke it is trying to pull trans pan off this thing. I had to pry Y-pipe down in order to get pan out. This is not good.
So now I’m pulling the trans.
New trans on its way. Should be Friday but probably not until next Monday or Tuesday. I had some upgrades done to it. Gonna be dyno tested on Tuesday hopefully and then shipped out. With upgrades, guaranteed to hold 750hp. But I just wanted the better parts and line pressure boost kit to hold clutches better. So this is exactly what I needed right before Xmas and while I’m finishing up my sled. I’m not driving my Firebird so she can use my truck so I bought a Camry from a family member to keep her rolling and out of my truck. I’ll just sell it when I get this trans done which should be in 2 weeks. I’m fixing broken exhaust manifold bolt while it’s down, flushing trans lines and cooler in radiator, replacing trans cooler, doing u-joints, trans mount, rear main seal, oil change and a sticky power running board.
No rest for the wicked! I’ll take you guys along for the ride, don’t worry.
