i hear those smartys are the way to go

John:thumbsup

 

I love mine!

Level 7 is my favorite setting, although I havn't taken my truck on a long trip yet so I still have to see how it interacts with the cruise control.

 

It will surge with the cruise control.

Is the quad tow module like the ez?

If it is I would either take it off and run the odd smarty settings or leave it on and run the no timing smarty settings.

If your clutch is surviving with the tow module and rv's then it should be fine with the smarty also.

Have fun.

 

I think the tow module and the ez are pretty much the same thing.

 

Yah we'll have to see..... I hope it is tolerable.

Most of my driving is interstate, Speedo at about 73MPH and Tach between 2100&2200 RPM

 

What RPM are you seeing that surge being/end??

 

All ranges. It's mainly when you're coasting downhill or on a plain. When climbing it usually is always on the throttle so there is no surging. Any other time it plays peek-a-boo with the go pedal.

That Redline gets a little jumpy at times when it starts to take over from the ECM - just a thought.

 

Yeah it does. I have yet to try my cruise with the redline yet.
Have you ever experienced the feeling of the VTEC in a little Honda or Acura? With the smarty on 3 it's real noticeable when the redline takes control, that’s what I can compare it too. Brother-in-law had a J-Spec Acura with a VTEC that he could take up to 11k rpm. At about 6k is when the third rocker arm would hydraulically lock to the intake rocker and start using the 3rd cam lope to provide more air for the intake at high rpms. But when that rocker arm would switch it was like shooting a shot of NOS, pretty wicked, same with the redline, between 3/4-full throttle is where the redline completely takes over and boy you can really feel it, but she moves!

have you guys noticed a "skip/jump" when the auto shifts from 3rd to 4th before lockup in 4th ? i noticed it occurs right around 40-45 mph. Bob Wagner told me to adjust my TV cable... dont know which way or where it is LoL. I have mine on 7 all the time, works good. when i put it to stock for service, i HATE driving it. its so slow and lacks power.

 

(Update) I had mine on 7 the other night when I went to Moorcroft, and the cruise seemed just fine, Now I'll just have to try the fuel saver mode:thumbsup

 

My cruise seemed ok with the smarty on level 3, maybe it was just level 9 that gives problems.
