TSB 18-005-06 Rev B Pros+Con's?

well PO514 showed its face again this am, coupled with a 111 code also.



What the good and bad with the TSB 18-005-06 Rev B reflash dealer fix on this?



Ive read some of the older posts on the subject looking for some long term guys who have been running it.



Thanks, Jim

I had the flash done three months ago no problems at all. Smoother idle is all i noticed

cool. how about the low power when cold?

My dealer did the flash for battery temp rationality, then another reflash for intake temp rationality or something (but used flash 18-003-06 which is NOT for that problem. ) I've noticed less power and stalling when starting from 2nd gear, especially when the engine is cold. I believe if the engine dips below a certain RPM, the computer is now programmed to stall the truck to save the clutch. Doesn't make sense... I'd rather burn up a clutch than stall the truck when trying to pull onto the highway from a stop in 2nd gear...

thanks my light is no longer on so im going to put this off as long as possible...

I'm going to go see if I can have the reflash removed. It's killed the truck's power for pulling at low/mid RPM... and even when unloaded at those RPM ranges.
