Low Dyno numbers also indicate a pump problem. Either pressure loss through wear, timing solenoid or a combo of both.

Luckily nothing money wont fix.

Thanks for the help. I guess I'll order a new pump and call it a 100,000 mile tune up.

"Luckily nothing money wont fix." I'm living this statement. Low HP? Nothing money won't fix. Trans not holding? Nothing money won't fix. Not enough air? Nothing money won't fix.

I'll let you know about the pump, I'm planning on coming down either way.

John P. highly suggests that I get a new pryo so, I'm tracking one down.

New pump is on the way, should have it tomorrow, if UPS doesn't mess up.

I was wondering................. If the pump is not perfoming correctly, why won't it throw a code? I would think I would get a check engine light or a 0216 code.

If I get the pump on time I should have in Sunday. I'll report back with the results.

I hated spending that kind of money, but the silver lining is, the FCM boards have been updated since 99.

Thanks for the help everyone.

Thanks for the joke.
