    I'm thinking this gizmo is discontinued.... NAPA doesn't actually say whether they have any in stock for shipment or not. Other websites I'm checking are all saying it's out of stock or otherwise has been discontinued.... this is very frustrating.

      Yeah, that is more and more common for these 90s trucks. Not enough money in it to keep producing things for them. This is also why LS Swaps are so popular.

    I can't find anything like this device for a 7.4L Gen VI engine on Summit's website..... I changed my engine's injectors to Bosch injectors and it runs like crap with LTFT's going sky high the instant it goes into Closed Loop running mode now, am looking for a solution other than putting the original factory injectors back in it again (was actually only needing to replace failed fuel pressure regulator but had figured while I was this deep into the top of the engine might as well replace the intake gaskets AND fuel injectors too.... starting to have real regrets here!).

    For some reason my 98 k3500 shift hard and hardly ever goes into overdrive..I was thinking may need the screen changed or could be shifting off.. truck has a 6inch lift with 18inch rims wrapped in 33's.. could this be the issue?

    • @rockymtnredneck4888
      @rockymtnredneck4888  2 года назад +1

      These programmers are locked to one VIN, so only one vehicle per. My Suburban has a 454 BBC, so no my mileage is the same it’s always been: 10-12 MPG. what this really does for me is correct gear ratio and tire size calcs on the computer so my gauges read right. The most valuable function after that for me has been the code reader. Your case shows why I would never want a K1500. The 350 needs to be really souped up to handle anything.

    First, Thank You. I just watched all the way through. I have a 1996 GMC K2500 Suburban 7.4Liter gas completely stock except for just slightly bigger tires. I mean just a little bit. I would want to only change 3 things: 1,) My speedo for as long as I can remember (I have put a total of 218,000 miles since new) has always indicated too high with lots of different tires over the years, 2.) While my shifts are great, firming them up would be something I would like to do, 3.) My truck is pulling hard at 99 MPH, then falls on its face at 100 MPH when the speed limiter kicks in (first time I thought I blew the motor). I would like to: 1.) Fix speedo accuracy, 2.) Stiffen shifts, 3.) Remove speed limiter. Will this tool do that without changing my engine settings?
    What model Jet Programmer is it? (Could I rent yours or does it lockout another truck?)
    How many miles are on your truck as I was watching your oil pressure as mine when warm "only" goes to about 45-50 tops at max rpm and idles around 14. Never dry starts never an issue, was just watching yours to see how it compared to mine.

      Ben Kanobe yeah, the programmer is locked to my truck. I got it from Summit Racing. They are usually who I go to for serious parts. Their site is real easy to use; which is why most times I don’t give links. Just search your vehicle specifics and you’ll find it. This JET programmer does just about everything you’re asking for and in far more detail than I needed.

      @@rockymtnredneck4888I don't expect a reply on a Sunday. I ordered mine! I did read lots of reviews where people claim the programer smoked their ECU. That scares the crap out of me! I have been using DTC readers for years on my truck and my other vehicles, but they don't do any programming. Any guess why so many make that claim? They also claim that Jet does not have good Customer Service. I just want to do my homework before I hook mine up. Any advice (you have already given so much) would be appreciated.

      @@benkanobe7500 I didn't go wild on the settings. I just adjusted the tire size and gear ratio. Yeah, an 80s tech ECU is probably not the most receptive to wild swings in programming, so if you wanted that you'd need to go a much, much more involved and expensive route like a Holly Sniper EFI. For what I wanted this lil programmer has been just fine. On my 200 Tahoe I used a Hypertech and it was basically the same thing, maybe less options. I'm not sure how people are frying their ECUs. I've never known someone that has had that issue.

  • @mossman381
    @mossman381 5 лет назад +1

    The bigger tires will throw off transmission shift points. I haven't really noticed much with my lifted truck but I should probably do the same thing. If your sensors aren't giving the computer the right information it won't work right.

  • @eddiej.2354
    @eddiej.2354 3 года назад

    We have both a 2000 GMC Jimmy Diamond Edition and a 2001 Chevy Blazer LT both basically the same truck. Luckily they both came with Hypertec power programmers. On the 2001 Chevy Blazer I could do the shift point speed change in 1 MPH increments but not on the 2000 GMC JDE and yes the programmers are two different model numbers. I could do more on the 01 Blazer with the Hypertec Power programmer than on the 00 JDE. We plan on selling the 2001 Blazer probably without the programming or programmer. Just remember if your vehicle is Tuned with a Hypertec Power Programmer that you RETURN the vehicle to stock tuning as that will UNLOCK the tuner so you can sell it or use in whatever vehicles the programmer covers If you forget to UNINSTALL the Tuning of your Hypertec Power Programmer before you sell your vehicle the programmer is VIN Locked or Useless if you decide to use it on another vehicle covered by your Hypertec Power Programmer make sure you return the vehicle to Factory or Stock Tunning as Hypertec chargers about the price of a new unit to get yours VIN Unlocked. Unfortunately there are sellers who don't realize that and end up having the tuner returned as it was VIN Locked. Now I don't know if this is a problem for all Power Tuners but I had a local audio place install a VIPER Smart Start Remote start and alarm system a few years back but unless I go to the audio place that installed the Viper Smart Start system I CAN NOT CHANGE OR UNINSTALL or INSTALL THE TUNNING WITHOUT having the Audio disable/turn-off the Viper system. It's a major pain in the back as I change tires for the season as i have two different size tires sets for Winter and summer use.. Im planning on a Tuner for my 2003 Z71 Tahoe and another Viper Smart start system but I'm hoping Hypertec knows of a fix for this issue. One More: if your one to get your vehicle serviced by the dealer MAKE SURE YOU UNINSTALL OR RETURN THE PROGRAMMING BACK TO STOCK because if there's any ECM or TCM or BCM UPDATE it will Uninstall / ERASE your programming or Tune making your Tuner Useless or Bricked. Hope this helps anyone. Thanks Eddie J.
