    Starting in 2lo

    Thank you gentleman. You've certianly eased my stress a bit. She seems to shift fine at every other point. I go from 1st to 2 to drive at about 20km and 40km. Once moving at higher speeds no shifting problems. No clunks or noises. I've never had her over 2.7ish Rpms. She holds steady at 2.5 at...

    Starting in 2lo

    Thanks again Charlie. I just got back from a quick drive and with what you've told me, it does very much remind me of the feeling of slowing down too much and then trying to speed up in second gear in a manual. So the truck just won't go to first gear automatically. Hopefully this further...

    Starting in 2lo

    Thanks for the knowledge. I'm still earning my YouTube mechanic badge. Haha I'd taken to calling it 2lo because last time I left it at a garage I told them to start in low to move and I came back to find they had been moving it around in 4low. Summer. Asphalt. I'll know better for next time...

    Check Engine Light: Lean Fuel Condition

    I started with an 0171 and cleaned the MAF and replace the pcv valve and the issue went away for about a week. Needed a NEW MAF. Then a few days later got an 0125 (open engine loop). Upstream 02 replaced this.

    P0171 False Lean

    And right after clearing my 0171 lean I got an 0125 for rich. Haha upstream 02 swap cleared that.

    P0171 False Lean

    After cleaning my MAF my issue went away for a week or two then started to come back. And New MAF ($100 cad) fixed this up. Maybe the MAF is just done for?

    I made some square tube sliders

    Those look great! Nice job! I'd love something like this, but I need to tear out and replace my inner and outer rockers first. Haha
