Hey Folks.....
Dennis responded to my "Wot Bog" thread with a new SCT 9100 file to try in my 04 Marauder!!! Thanks Mr. Reinhart!!!
The program Dennis sent works much better with only a hint of WOT "Bog" which is probably related to alternator control??
Dennis' program Locks the TC in 4th at 50 MPH (Ideal!!) and with O/D off it locks in 3rd at 40 MPH (Also very nice!!).......Problem is my car was bucking with the TC locked in 4th at about 1500 RPM's....Seemed like a slight misfire at constant speed that went away upon acceleration??? Pretty annoying around town but not as evident at highway speeds....2000 RPM's.
I had replaced my NGK (TR6IX) plugs a month ago with another set but this time, at the direction of an NGK tech, gapped them at .050" (My first set was at factory setting of .035"). I wondered if the wider setting was causing this "Bucking" so I pulled them yesterday and set them at .040"......VOILA.....NO MORE BUCKING IN TC LOCK!!!!! BTW I couldn't feel it or hear it with the TC unlocked so it was ever so slight.
I wonder what the Densos are set at from the factory?? I had some for about 12K miles but upon hearing about someone having problems removed them and replaced with NGK's with a larger Iridium electrode!!
Just thought I'd post this incase anyone else has this slight misfire condition!!??
