Do a crank-cam relearn procedure up to +/- 10° difference

A Branick 7600 is $1,064 retail

2010 Dodge Charger 2.7L/42RLE, No speedometer & Speed Sensor "A" DTC. Scoped the wheel speed sensor & it's good. TIPM shows a good wheel speed (This car doesn't have ABS) but the PCM isn't receiving or doesn't recognize the output over CAN (No CAN/Communication DTC's) Then I found wire nuts, A...

You have all these vehicles & would only use it once every 5 years? In Colorado Springs?

You have 26 year old Multec/Rochester injectors....They can cause a lot of issues & not set DTC's, I've seen shorted injector circuits not set codes on these, Vortec small blocks & Gen II LT engines. Get some Bosch injectors of the same flow rate & impedance, Trav @Hurst fuel injector service...

Just between me & you....Don't tell nodody....You can buy a strut machine & hang it in your garage.

You haven't physically checked for spark out of the towers on the coil?

Watch the Engine Load PID during a WOT run above 4500 RPM or so should read 80-100%.....Lower readings could indicate a restricted exhaust. The Engine Load PID is a pretty accurate indication of volumetric efficiency (Air in, Air out).

Got the 4L60 back in the truck, Cooler flushed, 13 quarts of Dexron VI.....Test drive went well.

I'm not a huge Led Zeppelin or Van Halen fan myself....But I like their playing style. Randy Rhoads was in Quiet Riot & was Ozzy's guitarist for a while 'til his death....I'm not that into either band but I liked his style. Another one of Ozzy's lead guitarist that's pretty good in my opinion...

I inherited well over a thousand files from my grandfather...Mostly Nicholson from the 60's & 70's. I always wondered why he needed so many?

Finished up assembly on the 4L60E. Diagnosed a 2020 Jeep Gladiator with a P0300 that had the parts howitzer fired at it.....First Look sensor shows it has weak intake pull on a couple cylinders....Likely some worn lobes on a camshaft/bad followers.

I pull the exhaust from the manifolds, The 2 heat shields on T1 platform trucks make a little bit more of a pain than K2 trucks. Spray the 6.....15mm headed nuts down with penetrating oil a few minutes before putting the impact to them. I have a 1/2" drive Snap-on 11-1/2" impact extension & a...

Geartrain staked on the 4L60

Don't have a list as those decades were before my time, But Eddie Van Halen, Jimmy Page & Randy Rhoads come to mind
