Will replace the trans probly next fall when I get the time and have the $ (retiring and moving next spring/summer) and probly also adding the flashed TCM based on some recent posts. I have heard of the SSV bore wear problem with resultant low lock-up pressure so am replacing the valve body with the RevMax unit and installing a deep pan for now before I take a long trip and do a few hundred miles of fairly heavy towing in some long steep hills, hoping that valve body will help avoid the lock-up pressure problems. It's got 135k on it, bone totally stock, he says he's never had problem 1 with anything on the truck. Talked to a guy with an 08 1 ton that claimed to tow up to 25k gross with his. Even tho the dirt gets filtered out, of course the additives eventually are depleted anyway. The second difference is a 'pan drop service' allows a tech to view any debris that may have worn off the internal parts of the transmission and with the flush procedure, the pan is not removed. The service records say it was "flushed" not too long before I bought it - I'm thinking/hoping that meant a complete fluid replacement. The first is during a service, approximately 40-45 (4 to 6 quarts) of the transmission's fluid is changed and a flush changes closer to 100. Glad to hear about high miles 68 rfe's - bought my truck not too long ago and it's now got over 175 on it.
Does the trans need to be in gear or something for the pump to pump fluid thru the converter? On those the fluid eventually got pumped thru the converter - I can't imagine the same fluid staying in the converter permanently. TSR is often pursued when it is either the lowest cost option or is necessary to meet a renewable portfolio standard.On numerous other transmissions I've done the cooler line disconnect thing, it's replaced all the fluid. Two utilities desire to transfer power through another utility's network.
A generator is connected to one utility but desires to sell power to another utility.C&I load is connected to one utility but desires to purchase bulk electric power from another utility.Commercial and Industrial (C&I) load desires to purchase power from a generator using a utility's transmission network.A few of the many potential scenarios where TSRs would be necessary: Often, the TSR is used to facilitate two parties to arrange a power purchase agreement by transferring power from a generator to a load through the utility's transmission facilities. Transmission service rights can be used for multiple purposes. TSRs are often renewed on an annual basis.
The cost for TSR is determined by a formula contained in the OATT and is often in the units of dollars per megawatt per year. In exchange for transmission service, transmitting utilities are allowed to charge the customer costs associated with the access to their transmission network.
The goal of open access to electric power transmission facilities is to reduce electricity prices by promoting wholesale competition. Generation interconnection allows for a power generator to connect to the transmission system while transmission service allows for the delivery of electricity through the transmission system. This access includes generation interconnection and transmission service. This order required each utility which transmitted electric energy in interstate commerce to file an Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT) to stipulate the process for non-discriminatory access to its transmission facilities. Open access to transmission facilities arose from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Order 888, issued April 24, 1996.
If the capacity is not available, the transmission customer may decide to pay to upgrade the transmission network. In order to receive TSR, a transmission customer (TC) must complete a transmission service request and go through a system impact study to determine if the existing transmission facilities can reliably accommodate the physical transfer of the electric power. Book an auto transmission service at your local Repco Authorised. Every TSR includes at least three components: 1) a point of delivery (POD), where the power is injected into the utility's transmission network 2) a point of receipt (POR), where the power is withdrawn from the utility's transmission network 3) the amount of power, or capacity, in megawatts to be reserved. A well maintained auto transmission is vital to performance and smooth gear changes. In the electric power industry, a transmission service request is an application requesting a transmission-owning utility to allocate physical capacity in the form of transmission service rights (TSRs) for the transmission of electric power.
