V-10 not running right?
I don't know where to turn. I have looked at all of the obvoius areas and can't find a problem.I had a flowmaster 50 series installed the other day and the truck has not run the same since. I know the muffler was not the cause because the truck started to run weird before the instilation. The truck seems to have lost it's power in the hills. With an empty truck going up easy gradient hills the truck turns into a dog! I have to push the pedal to the floor and jack the RPM's up so the truck will down shift and get it's butt in gear.The truck never used to have this problem. I used to be able to tackle hills and maintain speed with the overdrive on in most cases and off in others. Could this be a tranny problem, engine problem? I don't know! I don't like to see my baby sick and want to help her
.I just know if I bring it to the dealer I will get the "everything checks out on the computer routine". I would like to have a few ideas in hand!Oh by the way does installing a flowmaster muffler void extended warrantys? I probably should have looked into that befor I put it on,oopps
. Thanks!!!!
