    Verry Sad C6

    So, I'm being black-balled into getting a new daily driver. not going to lie, I'm the young pup of these forums. My transmission has more issues than meets the eye. I filled the trans with new fresh fluid to test the slippage, and its pretty pad. I had to park it for about a week or so while...

    Wheel/tire fitment question

    Does anyone own a dually with aftermarked wheels? My 350 is hungry for 235's, and I'm looking at cheap-ish tires. I can't afford to go full Alcoa's, as I've spec'd them with tires to over $3k

    How to clean out a heatercore without removing it?

    I did the heater core on mine last winter, it was super easy. The hardest part was wrapping my head around how to drop the glovebox ( derp). I got an OEM brass replacement, and all in all it took just about an hour's worth of work. Although I did go above and beyond and flush my system of scale...

    Cincinnati Guy, I'm out in Milford, or tpwards Eastgate, whichever is easier to recognize. Yeah, I'm getting the feeling that this isn't as intimidating as it appears, and I could really pimp out my C6 to make it a hoss. What kind of torque converter do you recommend? The alto red combo kit...

    I've played with the modulator, it seems to shift at a decent rpm, but its most definetly slipping into gear, and between gears. Would I be better off rebuilding it myself, or letting a shop do it? I've been looking at parts fromhttp://www.c6-c4.com/. The C6 #K8 package looks like a sweet...

    Verry Sad C6

    My C6 is a very sad panda right now. It sat for a few months while I was troubleshooting what I thought was a low oil pressure issue (damn idiot light), and now after replacing the shift modulator, I get the feeling that the tranny is starting to go. She just rolled her first 100k, and its...

    C6 shift modulator leak

    My C6 is dripping trans fluid at an alarming rate from the shift modulator attached to the trans housing. To be more specific, the vac piece that kicks down gears. It looks like a seal has gone bad, and its just puking fluid. Does this just need a new seal or could it be more than that...

    What I Regret Not Doing Since Day One...

    http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/cspages/acf50.php found this on a motorcycle forum, for people that ride all year. You apparently can spray this and wipe this on, and it stays until a detergent rubs it off. Guy I know uses this on his R6, only does it every 6 months, corossion free.

    Want to regear

    I dont mean to threadjack in the least, but in regard to re-gearing, does anyone offhand have, or know of a thread explaining what would be required labor-wise to accomplish this.

    Banks end of the year sale

    I'm in contact with Mitch from Banks Power, about sourcing a sidewinder kit for my IdI. I received a call yesterday that let me know that the sidewinder kit for the 6.9/7.3 IDI will be $600 OFF, until April 30, due to the end of the year event. That means a kit for an idi, with proper exhaust...

    Fuel Mileage

    I think my problem is worn/bad injectors. I can hear 1 or 2 beginning to tick. It took lots of listening and playing with my fuel and its various additives while waiting for the warm weather to come to this conclusion. I am going to replace my return lines, injectors, o rings, pump timing, and...

    Engine tick at idle

    with it being warmer ( 40-60°F) here in cincinnati, I poured some ATF in with my fuel, and stayed away from keeldiesel for a fillup. The tick nearly went away. its at least 1 dirty/worn injector. case closed. I'm buying new ones.

    Engine tick at idle

    if injector tick sounds just like valve tick, then thats a possibility for later. I only bring up the valve issues because it seems to have a very slight chug at idle, and i hear a small click as the engine goes around. I have a 1988 7.3 IDI 94k on the odo. I didn't know I had hydraulic lifters...

    Engine tick at idle

    bump, should I worry about longevity? engine only has 95K on the odo, doubt its rolled over because the original title only has 11k on it, and dude used it to tow horses, in warm weather.

    Engine tick at idle

    My engine has a very minute chug at idle, and a possible valve click. Is there a chance that I need to adjust the valve lash, or is it that my valve guides are worn and I need to redo my heads? being a 4.10 w/o OD, it sits up pretty good in the revs.

    Lifted CC Dually 4x4 on CL.

    that truck looks really nice. I sent the guy an email about the turbo setup and the exhaust brake. Maybe I can get more information. I wouldn't pay 7500 for something like that, but still, not bad

    93k now on the fuel system, but it towed at least a 4 horse trailer for most of its life. Never had the IP timed yet. Funny, I took Icanfixalls advice, and tossed in a hella lot of Power Service Kleen Diesel, and some ATF into a new full tank, damn thing runs like a kitty and this morning it...
