As the title says, I have a buddy with a 2002 SD 7.3 He is wanting to add a tuner to it and wanted to know my suggestions on it. I am pretty up on the 6.0 stuff but not so much on the 7.3. I told him I would come to the one place that I know would give me an answer. I am pretty sure that a DP tuner (after reading other threads on here) is the way to go. There is one small problem though that we need to figure out.
The tranny and the converter in the truck has been beefed up pretty good by Atlantic Coast Converters In Conway SC. they are wizards with all things transmission can converter. The last time he was towing his trailer (32 foot N'Tense toy hauler) t
Here is the problem that we need to fix whether its with a programmer or another way: While towing on flat land with OD on, it towed fine. As a hill came and he wanted to take it out of OD he would push the button and it would start to coast rather than go down a gear. Same thing would happen if he came to a down hill and wanted to downshift manually.
Seems to me the converter is not staying locked up when he presses the OD button.
I know this is long but suggestions please.
