Ok I'm back with an update, new pump installed and its still bleeding pressure off, I'm suspecting injector/s, I can test that myself next as it's the cheapest of the 2 things I'm mentioning. I also have read there is a hose connecting the pump to the swirl pot inside the tank which can...

Not sure how it is with a V6 but from what I've read with the LS1 you have to write the PCM file to a laptop with a tuning software like EFI live then remove vats save it and write it back to the PCM.

Well I'm back, I have spoken to the technician and they didn't watch for drain back when doing the pressure test whilst looking for the hard starting problem, makes me wonder a bit hey....anyway so I picked up a el cheapo one from supercheap and checked it myself after pressurizing the system...

Hi, question on that would be it's passed a pressure test, if it was faulty would it still pass? Just have to add sometimes it will start first go hot or cold.

Hi, I've got this exact problem, is the OP still around, I'm guessing he might of fixed it.

I have a after market trans cooler set up on my VX SS that I did myself, similar line fittings as the V6 as they use the same trans (4L60e) mine is set up like this ... From trans >radiator inlet (bottom fitting of radiator) > radiator outlet (top fitting) then the rubber line is cut in the...

Better late than never, they mount to the top headlight bolt. (The one that holds the headlight to the car).

Fairly sure VT2-VY2 is all the same 74mm butterfly thathas the crosssticth pattern on the butterfly they all have a small 1/8" hole standard, they all look like this, if yours does not????

Is the TB aftermarket?

At all?? or you mean no larger.

Oh when you say Bypassed is it catchcan>plumbed somewhere else on the T/B/inlet, vented to the atmos, or plumbed with a normal hose bridge/ new piece to the same port on the intake manifold, or worse lastly sealed crankcase vents? If the answer is 1 or 2 it won`t. if its 3 it could be blocked...

Is the hole in butterfly drilled out to a larger diameter than stock? stock is 3.5 mm check by placing a drill bit by hand into the hole if a 3.5mm fits snug......etc... Is it Stock, tuned, cam?

On the bottom of the Cable operated TB`s( VT2-VY2 LS) there is a small Allen key screw located vertically on the bottom of the tension spring for the cable. , this opens or closes the butterfly depending on which way you turn it, its a idle speed adjuster.
