    I just posted my first question in the general help area, so I wanted to say HI too.

    Wife bought our 2000 GP GT new way back when.
    Its been a good car and still pretty nice all these years and 180,000+ miles later.
    I now drive it daily to work 60 miles each way. So I want to try and take care of things if I can.

    Appreciate everyone's help and expertise in advance, and THANKS for putting up with me!

    THANKS for the welcome !
    Afetr reading all the TCC stuff here, I did the crossing the battery cable/code clearing deal, tossed 1/2 can of TransMedic SeaFoam in there and just about the same if not slightly worse. I am going to dig out my receipt from the trans shop and see if they did the TCC solenoid, give 'em a call, and see about getting it scanned at least. Doesn't sound like there is anything else to try or do w/o dropping the trans....is there?
    THANKS AGAIN!

    Looked like it was my MAF sensor that caused my surge/hesitation/chug.
    Ran through my progession of investigation and repair on LS1.com.
