TPS ajustment

[JIM S.]

did the voltage test and ajustment today... mine was less than a a volt . 75 or so. had to file the holes in the TPS and the mounting bracket to get enough movement. torqueconverter lockup seems to have jumped from 30 mph to 34mph in (D) (didnt have the time or road to test in OD. ) but that is good to have a few more revs before lockup.

I like having the TCC engage at slower speeds in D..... makes for more smoke to blow at tailgaters! :-laf

True... . but in my quest to make the stock TC last as long as possible( no $'s) its good to have it lock a bit later

Thanks for the thought "slot the bracket" DUH! I should have thought of that!

I also checked my TSP voltages the other day, 0. 75v. I also found that the linkage was out of spec. And this was after having the linkage recall done. The tech who did the recall work removed the entire linkage from the engine and put it back together on the bench. He was sure that he did not have to check the linkage or TSP doing it this way. Stupid me, I believed him! I reset the linkage and still had to elongate the mounting holes to get 1. 2v at idle. A word to the wise, you should check your linkage and voltage if you have never done so!! Truck drives much better with OD coming on at a higher rpm.
