Funny, I advised you to find out why the trans was acting up before wasting your money on a new one for this very reason.
Did the new trans get a new torque converter? Cooler clogged?

I still call bullshit on this entire thread, you're either making this **** up, or you're making very bad decisions.

OR your buddy owns the sponsored shop and your making up scenarios that no one can figure out, only for him to come to the rescue and fix it all in 30 minutes making him look like a genius.

Well the engine power problem finally gave up its secret. The engine started missing at an idle......I had the plugs pulled out and guess what was found? Number 8 spark plug was melted and fouled with oil. The rest ALL have the porcelin partially melted. I can see now what must have happened is the fuel filter blocked and it ran lean and unfortuneatly the trans guy ran it hard at the very same time without knowing it was lean. It damaged the number 8 plug and caused it to run poorly and pull timing.

The computer never turned the check engine light on because it wasn't missing bad enough. The filter in the tank unit stills needs repair and i'm guessing number 8 cylinder needs valve seals. At 130k i guess its time for some freshening up. It always has used some oil and i guess number 8 cylinder is the culprit all along.

I gotta thank Mike at Rapid again for seeing there was a real problem hiding some place in this mess and not thinking i was nuts.

Call it all bs if you like...but it is what it is.

The trans is a brand new gm 4l60e with a new convertor. The cooler was flushed and flow tested. The vibration magicly stopped???? It was buzzing the entire car at 1100 rpms. Of course it stopped the next day when i took it to get looked at. I think it might be what they describe as convertor buzz...there was a odd clicking sound along with it.

If you really think i could make all this sheeet up YOU are the one that needs help. I couldn't possibly make up all this crap.

I did see Elvis once but he was still alive so that don't count. LOL

I'm maybe 1% serious when I reply to you.

About your plugs, they're not melted. At your mileage they're probably just worn down.
Stock have Platinum tips, Platinum has a melting point of 3221.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Aluminum (not necessarily the exact alloy your block and heads are made of) melts at 1220.45 Fahrenheit. Porcelin melts around 2500* depending on how it's made and whats in it.

Your plugs are simply worn out, pretty consistant with your clogged fuel filter, mileage, and burned down transmission.

No they are melted........they are the good iridium plugs. They got too hot, number 8 is melted away. The rest ALL the porcelin centers are melted badly. I guess you never seen what detonation can do to a spark plug.

Its very obious to me you are a back yard mechanic....sorry jr you still need yer momma! LOL

Car werks fuggin nice again ...oh yeah ...now if the dam trans will stop its pump vibrating it will be all good again. I may just find a pro to fix the dam thing. dealing with gm dealers poor techs is redicules. two gm techs drie the car 3 times with their tech 2 scanners hooked up and never seen the plugs were fried?????? I know where i'll NEVER go for help again.

whats even sillier the 1st tech was driving the car with the fuel trims at +8 and never bothered to check the fuel filter. IT WAS COMPLETELY BLOCKEd. SHEEET i don't even need a tech 2 to tell me if the fuel trims are that high you got fuel delivery trouble. What the truck do they teach todays kids??????

Moron from above i'm done with you so don't bother posting nomo of yer silly sheeet. Go play in the street with yer worn out plugs.

I think you're the one that needs to take your piece of **** car elsewhere, like a school campus and learn to spell you ******* cussing christian. What the **** is that about?
And what about you claiming 35 years experience and can't check a spark plug? Oh gee, it's the new technology right? spark plugs have really changed a lot in 35 years. I'm waiting for your next problem, can't imagine how ridiculous it'll be.

Thanks for sharing "how idiots go about auto repair"
It's a fried transmission, nope it's the brakes, bad fuel, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, oh wait it's just the sparkplugs
Only took you two months to figure that out.
