      Re: won't shift

      here we go, the 2 wires of the iat were touching because i had 1 of those performance "chips" hooked up. i got tired of it so i took it off and had to resolder the 2 wires back on the iat (good thing i saved the plug) i guess after driving around in the bakersfield heat, the solder points melted just enough for the 2 ends to touch and put the car in "limp mode" so after the diagnostic test and reset, all that was needed was some rubber tape and embarrasment

      Those "chips" are a joke, all they are is a resistor that will eventually burn out your cat.

      Easy cure to this shifting problem though, pour 2 bottle of NOS energy drink in your gas tank, but make sure your almost out of gas first. Cures all ailments.
