VP 44 Installed Today

[jlwelding]

Ok gang I got vp 44 installed and now shifting is grate, no rpm drop, now shifts nice and smooth. But, there is still a problem with shurging when slowing down or push clutch in it surges about 4 times then smooths out. I put new timbomb apps and the lowest we could get numbers down to are .671 is this to high, in other words is apps sending a message to ecm searching for idle mode? Tim said .671 would be ok, I am wondering if there may be a problem here. Oh yea, eng. died several times with old vp and never thru a code. I got to ask what's up with that?

No problems, a Mechanic friend of mine installed it for me.Took about 3 hrs.I would like to here some thoughts on apps searching for idle mode, is this possible? Thanks

It could be hunting for idle mode and causing a governor problem...If you got a small rat tail file I would open the holes on the APPs sensor slightly to try and reach the set voltage... Just don't get carried away filing...
