Are you due for Transmission fluid/filter change?

Hmm well just to be sure I'd change it, depending on how many miles you have since the last change, if at all, it was changed.

I must note, that changing the tranny fluid on the 4L60E is one pain in the ***.

Hmm.

Your MAF could be descreened and ported.

That mod usually causes our cars to run too lean.

Here's a link to see if you have it:

I'm guessing you bought your car used.

Just a thought

Please consider punctuation marks every once in a while. It's really hard to read a paragraph of run-on sentences and phrases.

Batwing? Ha ha. I hope you got a good deal on that one. That MAF is likely modded, but you may not need to worry about it.

Isn't there a screw on the TB that you can use to adjust the idle speed? It sounds like it needs to be backed out just a little. That may be all you need to do.

thanks srry about the punctuation. it's hard to type when your holding a 50lbs chunk of molded plastic shaped like a batwing in one hand and a bill from maaco in the other.

if anyone wants to recreate the batmobile let me know i've got the wing and my car did have the decales. who could do such a thing to a poor defenless car?

it would be helpfull if anyone could answer any of my other questions thanks
