Do you think the timing can be off? Can you check your timing without a timing light?

the 12 code
it means when the key is on and the engine not runing that all your electronic are ok
but your most of your tranny codes will not read that way

but you might can try a tranny shop if the guys are nice the can put there code reader on it and see what comes up
im saying that b/c most places down here check it for free

i did not think a MAP sensor would fix it. a malfunctioning TPS would have a high idle and late shift points. code 12 would indicate everything is ok but you might have checked it when it was not flashing a code. have you checked the cap and rotor??

now when you say it surges do you mean that the motor kinda jumps for just a sec and then shifts ?

It is a 5spd so when you change into 3rd for example the truck surges (loses power) I am sure it is a timing issue at this point...

How do you adjust the timing?

when its running you turn the destibuter one way or the other just a little bit at a time and on your harmonic balance pully there is a mark should be one the timing cover when the #1piston hits the it should match the mark on there you can see it real good with the timing light
