E4OD and FIPL settings
Well, information posted on various sites have called for FIPL voltage sensing to be at 1.05-1.1 at idle, and 3.8 -4.3 WOT. Mine was set at 1.08, but I wasn't all that happy with the shift schedule, it would kick up a gear sooner than I liked, and would kick into overdrive at about 40mph. This resulted in pretty low rpms, high egts, and doggy performance due to lugging.
When I had my TC changed out due to clutch slipping, the guy at the shop said that 1.2 v was a better setting for the FIPL. I check some old posts here, an low and behold PLC7.3 had referance a TSB that called up 1.2 v at idle.
So not being a coward, I cranked my adjustement up to 1.2, and guess what, much happer with the sifts, doesn't kick into overdrive until 50 mph, and maintains better rpm/power ratio through the range. Hope others frustrated with E4OD performance will find this helpful.
