Hit up Marty. He has an IDS and can help you figure out what's not working right.

If it ends up looking like tunes, Innovative is like 5 mins from his shop.

Ive never tuned my ficm should still be stock. And I just put it in not to long ago when my old one took a crap on me.

Most likely you'll have a code for "software incompatibility" or something like that. Won't set a check engine light but an IDS will pick it up.

Has anyone have idle surge in the morning even in this warmer weather once warm it goes away

Anyone have any other tuning options? I'm running gearhead and they can't get them right and it takes a while to get feed back. Anyone try to tune themselves? I know it's pricey but I might try and do it and get into that. Take a class on it or something trying to research it

try innovative

Drew at back road performance has really good tunes and so does Nate at WPE, just another few options to try.

I'll look into it thank you

I 2nd Nates tunes, the service is spot on. He e-mails me a revision typically with in 24 hrs. And has gotten the closest to getting me a street able tune. IDP was way off and tooks a few days to get revisions. I really liked TSD when I had my 190's.

TSD doesnt offer tunes anymore over email and there located in texas. the only way to get tunes in going to them for live tunes

jban126_f350 · Jul 7, 2015

its been hard to get revisions from gearhead plus its hard to tell him what it needs to do. the shifts are off sometimes to firm other times to soft. it takes awhile for the truck to go into gear, extended delay when into drive or reverse. even if i let it idle a little.

jban126_f350 · Jul 7, 2015

might try out wpe tuning fair price. how are the tunes? will i get lucky and get some good tunes? im like 1 of 5 people that have bad luck with gearhead. sucks...

I wouldn't hesitate to try some WPE tunes.
I plan to when I get my internet up and running again

FarmWithAFord · Jul 8, 2015

I would give Back Road Performance a shot. Drew writes some pretty good tunes

Sealeveloc · Jul 8, 2015

Nate has been awesome with revisions, less than 24 hrs on most.

to the op- ill bet its not gearhead tunes... you prob. have a solenoid issue if you are having a delay in shifting... sounds like a line pressure control solenoid or dd solenoid.

The trans was built with all new parts a month ago

Who built the trans?

04cr450 · Jul 11, 2015

doesnt matter(u said it was just built, chances are they didnt use new solenoids)... what u are describing sounds like a solenoid issue.... get the pressures checked at the bare minimum to rule it out... before i got my built trans(warren) i had a line pressure control solenoid go out on me... delay 4-5 secs going into D or R... new line pressure solenoid and it shifted like it was new, i thought it was the tune too... and it could still be the tune(tough to nail it on the forum here) but i highly doubt it.
