Try this place. I dropped mine off there today to get the trans rebuilt. He knows his PSD chit from what I hear. He sounded real knowledgeable on the phone. He's worked on all 3 of my buddies PSDs, my dad's PSD and he works on all of the PSD ambulance fleet for WJ Hospital too. He's been trained on the PSD stuff too.

Where do you live on the WB? I'd offer up some help but I'm heading out of town for work in the AM. Does that Superchips programmer you have do diagnostic code readings? If so check it. Can it do a CCT (cylinder contribution test)? If so , do it and let us know the readings. From your symptoms I'm thinking an injector o-ring maybe? Is there fuel in the oil?

the superchip reads codes but there arent any codes so thats why i was looking for a shop to bring it to so that they can figure it out
i will check and see if there is fuel in the oil

i actually pulled the harness and reinstalled it to make sure
no oil in the valley
i really think its injectors but i dont want to spend that kind of money and then it not be the problem
i just wish i could take it to a place and hook a computer up to it and for them to say "this is your problem " but i guess i would be living a dream world

I'd go with whatever he recommends. If you want to spend the money for piece of mind that's up to you.
He just called and told me mine is ready. It's the white C/C 2wd that's in there.
I just picked his brain about all kind of stuff and he seems to know his stuff. I had him do the trans, new up-pipes and pedestal o-rings. His pricing is very fair and he actually told me he'd have the trans done by tomorrow, but he ended up having everything done by earlier today.
He even went as far as to say to stick another engine in it if it should ever die. He doesn't like the 6.0's and he said the jury is still out on the 6.4's. He told me to keep the 7.3 and stick some 4" exhaust on there. He said that's the best mod you can do for power.
