<snip>The truck was trying to pull forward when at an idle in drive...
What do you mean? When the vehicle is at an idle and in gear, it normally pulls forward if you don't hold the brake down. Are you saying you had to stand on the brake so it doesn't roll forward?
Why would increasing the shift pressure affect this? At idle, you should be way below the torque converter's stall limit.
Whoever told you that is mistaken. Its the added amount. For instance, to get a good, firmer shift on 1-2 and 3-4, about 10 psi needs to be added. For 2-3, about 15 psi. Those pressures, if absolute, would be way to soft.
Yea, it didn't sound right so I kept searching and reading. I posted the question again on DiabloSport and included the first reply I got. I still haven't heard back from them. I'm guessing their first line of tech support are sales folks.
Ken, are you saying 10 psi over the stock pressure? Or 10 psi over the Predator's Performance Tune? I went two clicks each (10 psi increase) for the 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4 shifts above what the Perforrmance Tune did. I was afraid to go any higher. In fact, I backed off on the 3-4 shift to just +5 over the Performance Tune. It was already at +4 so I am now at +9 over stock. I'll try +15 on the 2-3.
I got to use the Diagnostic Code Reader feature today. Our Ford Ranger that my son is driving now got a Check Engine light and it is running really rough. I was able to read and clear the P0306 on it.
I'm lovin this Predator and the collective experience on FTE!
