You have a trans throttle valve that connects to the throttle body to engage the shifts.

Normally I 'd call you a noob and move on, but then you already know that, don't you?

Just joshing ya a bit, we all have to start somewhere. Welcome to DF!

 

i have the same throttle plates,, the bore is just strate throw, just bore it out above the throttle plates

I knew that you were coming back with a proper answer I KNEW IT ! ha Just by reading past post's it is not hard to tell who makes typos and who's knowledge exeeds espectations in the forums.
Thanks for the info.

 

well i put the poor man back on and played around with the t.v and tuned it in..... so far everything is good(shifting correcty)... I reset the computer, all should be good to go.

 

glad you got it fixed.

 

I was thinking of doing the same. Take a throttle body and port and polish it. But is it worth it? Are you getting better MPG's? what are the benifits? Would you do it over if you had the chance or is it a waste of time? I've been wanting to do that but haven't yet. Just need ANY reason to work on my rig. Thanks

 

I'm going to do this....So it must be a good mod.

 

yea...I got the extra tb just need to get off my tail and find a shop to bore it a little more for me.

 

But is it worth it? = yes

Are you getting better MPG's? = not sure, it's winter time. like when i put it on it was 50 degs and today in was 18

what are the benifits? = better throttle response, and less throttle to take off,(so that maybe on mpg answer)

Would you do it over if you had the chance or is it a waste of time? = i would do it all over again, plus i learnt form it and now you guy are to.

*** but do not think your going to gain alot, but you can tell if your find tuned with your truck****

 

Right on. thanks! Now allow me to ask a semi-stupid question. Is there a differents in the 5.9L throttle bodies versus the 5.2L? I heard somewhere (I forget where) that the bore size was a bit bigger in the 5.9's.
