I have a 4.3 vortec s10 and I recently took off the intake and took the throttle plate out to clean it. I am having troubles getting it to line back up when I put it back in. When the truck is off, it has no rub on the throttle body. But when I start the truck, it makes the gas pedal sticky and also makes the plate rub on the throttle body. I have tried repositioning it many times and also tried tightening the screws very tightly. It would be much appreciated if anyone could help me out since this is my daily driver and I don't want my throttle body all tore up. Thanks, Mike

  This seems like an even better solution than doing the pull flip. I like it!

  You might try this 1st. 1. Disconnect both transmission lines from the trans thermostat. 2. With compressed air, blow out the transmission cooler lines, blowing thru the return line with a jug container on the outlet line, and see if any debris is in the jug. I used a clear plastic drink bottle to catch the fluid & then looked to see if it caught any debris. Note from AI.....On your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 5.3L with the 6L80E, the transmission fluid flow is: Upper cooler line at the transmission = Hot fluid OUT to the radiator/transmission cooler. Lower cooler line at the transmission = Cooled fluid RETURN back into the transmission. At the radiator/auxiliary cooler, the fluid typically flows: Out of the transmission through the upper line. Through the radiator heat exchanger. Through the auxiliary cooler (if equipped with the factory towing package). Back to the transmission through the lower return line.. Then with the thermostat removed, I installed a thermometer defeat (bypass) that bought off Amazon. This one has no moving parts.

  Yeah, they’ve really been hitting it hard with the R&D. If their oil wasn’t performing as well as it has been for people I’d say this just a cash grab/ marketing ploy. But the BITOG folks seem to think this may be legit too. Trying it in the Jeep, fuel has been a problem in the samples and while I have new injectors on the shelf, this is an easier proposition…
