Yeah, but this one has a 4r70w trans. Usually I'm pretty sharp with 8-9 gens, this one won't throw any codes, just comes up no data found.

I know if I open the computer, it will have some fried resistors in it.
Good thing I saved the one out of the parts truck, eh?

Mine has the 5 speed in it, so it was a no brainer for me. Went through 3 computers and said the hell with it and changed it over. If it had an auto trans I would just have parted it out.....

This has been a pretty good truck.
I'll put the other computer in, and rebuild this one for when that one craps out, and it WILL crap out.

Electronic components are cheap, I have no idea why they want so much money for a rebuilt unit

Morning Don, had a t-storm roll through this morning, but we can use the rain. Won't be too bad today, they are small lead ingots, not the big-*** plate lead like the old monitors had. But, there are a ton of them (108), so it will take a while.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

Morning Don and Pat.

We've got plenty of lead in people's back sides around here. I wish I could send you some.
