Low power on a 360!! Fed UP!! - 8/13/2007 11:47:01 AM    zukgod1   Posts: 23 Joined: 6/13/2007 Status: offline So heres the deal. It's a 99 D with a new trans, 95k miles, CAI, 8.5mm MSD wires, new plugs (NGK) cap, rotor, (dont know what coil to get) Cat ectomy, Magnaflow muffler 3" (pipe still 2.5"). New O2 sensor. Just resealed the plenum. Stock tire size (31's) all new brakes not hangin up. Seems to run great all the time but after about 2k rpm it seems like its fighting it's self. What I mean is from a stop if you floor it it takes right off till it hits approx 2k then the rate of acell drops off. On the freeway cruising @ say 75mph and you decide to overtake the car in front of you so just enough peddle to get it to kick down, it just makes allot of noise. It does go faster but for a 360 it seems to just be gutless. I'm pretty sure my Saturn could out run this thing no problem... Suggestions? Comments? Questions? Getting REALLY frustrated here.. Oh ya, where the HELL is the fuel filter??? Wouldnt I get a SEL if it was plugged enough to cause what I'm experiancing? dan Post #: 1

My best guess is that if you didn't the PCM is just treating the 360 like a 318. _____________________________ 2000 Durango 5.9L SLT+ Flowmaster 40 "Custom" Ram Air 31" BFG AT T/A KO's Bilstein Shocks Hidden Hitch Sirius Satelite Radio E-fan conversion Smittybilt brushguard SSU's (in reply to trbmbennett) Post #: 3

Wouldnt I get a SEL if it was plugged enough to cause what I'm experiancing? dan I’m running MSD coil Part #(8228) and have good results.  If you want to use the OEM clip you need an additional wiring harness made by Accel (part # #140021AH). The fuel filter is located inside the fuel tank and is considered non-serviceable. I’d clean the fuel injectors first. If that did not solve your issue then it might be electrical, faulty sensor, etc… _____________________________ 2000 5.9 Durango-190K SSteel Borla Cat back;K&N Intake;MSD coil(8228) Champ Iridium (9203);K&N Oil Filter (HP-2004);Mobil 1 Syn 5W30(winter)10W40(summer);Gear oil 75W140; Drilled/slotted Rotors&Ceramic Pads;Edelbrock Shocks;BF Goodrich T/A KO (in reply to zukgod1) Post #: 4

Oh crap I think that was someone else. < Message edited by Mean Green -- 8/14/2007 8:29:11 PM > _____________________________ 2000 Durango 5.9L SLT+ Flowmaster 40 "Custom" Ram Air 31" BFG AT T/A KO's Bilstein Shocks Hidden Hitch Sirius Satelite Radio E-fan conversion Smittybilt brushguard SSU's (in reply to steve05ram360) Post #: 6
