| It would take quite a bit of noise to cause KR from an intake that is connected via rubber couplers etc. Once you look over Regals you can understand why JMB is popular. There's no perfect direct route. |

| For every 10 F drop in temp, it will double the life of your trani. :wink: You are trying to say that if a person lowers there trans temp by 40 degrees they with quadruple the life of the trans? :bhuh: I'm kidding.

| It's odd you see this issue on both your cars. Can't say it's true on all 92-95's though, my 95 had zero slip with stock 2.8 or aftermarket 2.5 pullies. The 95 I picked up later and resold quickly has no slip issues either. Not sure why that is..but it would seem GM wouldn't engineer in slip. :???: ... |

Check every place you can find a sender reference, especially the wiring schematic page. 99 FSM has it on page 8-613 Instrument panel, gauges ... |

| Most will never need it. It is for when you are building heavily and have a pulley small enough that the belt slips upon rapid accelleration. Even at my level I don't experience any slip. GP tensioner/front idler are different and I could see where they would get more slip than the H body belt confi... |

Many W body guys go 12's and some 11's on stock transmissions. Sure you'll put a lot of abuse on it using slicks and shooting for the moon, but it d... |

| That is called a daisy chain. It is frequently used on the modules that the pcm and DLC both see. One method to get around it temporarily would be to run wiring directly from the pcm pins to the DLC and then put a seperate switch coming off those wires to the remainder of the daisy chain. This shoul... |

A DHP can program the 96 as well.
You may want to make a couple calls to ensure they don't perform a visual inspection. I was surprised to learn that during the plug in only test in my state they recently began visual emission controls inspection. |

After cleaning both ends and noting corrosion going down into the cable, my issue was resolved only after I chang... |

| Look down at it when you friend hits the throttle. If the metal of the engine side mount nearly contacts with the metal of the body side..it's a sign that the mount is bad. Or if the mount appears to be in poor shape overall. |
