after a long and arduous battle, my vp44 has been replaced and seems to be running like a top....good fuel pressure and such....but after letting it sit for about a month, I now have to crank it pretty hard to get it to start, almost feels like it has air in the lines however I have torqued, checked and re-re-double-quadruple-checked all the lines and they are all holding fuel....?? my second question, just after I replaced my vp the first time with a used pump, that failed shortly there after, my 47re started having issues shifting out of first!! I thought it may have been a clog in the valve body, it sat for a while, but a good ****** of the valve body with brake clean and a filter and fluid replacement gave no change, I tried the speed sensor at the rear of the trany, also no luck when replacing that! it will shift fine through all gears once its out of first, but to get it out of first it needs to be at about 22-25 mph so I need a down hill run or I have to rev it to about 2700 rpm to get it to speed, then drop it to neutral and then back into gear, it will NOT shift out of first any other way.....?? please help, I am at a total loss with the trany and am pretty puzzled with the hard starts as well....I was thinking maybe apps?? it konked out today before I replaced the speed sensor when I dropped it into reverse and surged when I would shift into drive with a huge drop in rpms before returning to a normal idle but now seems to do fine, just the normal change in engine load when its put into gear.....thanks guys!!!!its a 2001 2500 about 160k miles all stock minus raptor lift pump
