I just install my C&L upper plenum, accufab sbtb, C&L intake elbow, and a cone K&N air filter. Now the truck gave me a check engine light and when it shifts it feels like it is at wide open throttle. I went over everthing and double check all nuts and bolts and made sure all hose's were right. Can anyone help me

You either left a vacuum hose disconnected or your MAF got some oil on the hair. Is your MAF in the same position it was in before you added these mods? Also, you should probably get a tune as you may be running a little rich after the installation of these mods.

Fuses? What about the IAT sensor on the side of the air box?

Check the small hose in the center underneath the tube. If it doesn't breath right it will make it shift funny.

How did you adjust the TPS ?

The TPS isn't adjusted properly.

I will check the small hose, the DTC code is 5284 if that helps at all. thanks for the help again.

How do I adjust the tps?

How do I adjust the tps?

Look in the how-to section above in this forum..

If you don't have any way to set it you can try just put it where it was to start with. That's usually close enough to get you by till you have somebody adjust it.

5284 is oil pressure switch failure from what I found. It's not uncommon and cheap to fix but it shouldn't cause the symptoms you describe. The PSI switch is on the drivers side of the engine where the oil filter/cooler assembly is bolted to the block. Make sure the connector is on there good and if it continues get a new switch and that will take care of it.

PROVIDING YOU HAVE OIL IN THE ENGINE OF COURSE.

I think it is the tps, cause I took it off and look at it and stuck so I put a flat head screwdrive in it and move back to the close pistion put it back on the trottle body open and close the throttle body took it back off and it was in the middle again

 

[Illtaketwlight]

You broke it get a new one and this time make sure its lined up before you bolt it down. NO biggie.

 

[2thedarkside]

I will make sure to line up this time, and my MAF went bad too so if anyone got a aftermarket MAF they want to sell let me know

 

[2thedarkside]

I just want to say thanks to everyone who help me out, you guys are some kick ass people.
