Corvette Servo installed now its slipping...HELP
So I had my Corvette Servo installed last week and the truck now slips when shifting between gears! I have not had time to call the mechanic who put it in yet as it is the weekend....anyone have any ideas on what the hell could be causing this?? The truck is a 2000 GMC 1500 5.3. Thanks Everyone who helps!

He may have pinched an O-ring.
I did the same thing on mine twice. The black ones that are cut are hard to get in. I had to grab a make-up mirror so I could see them going in properly.
And make sure the ends of the retaining ring are within a solid area of the bore. If they are on one of the notches, the tranny case can break.
You could look up a diagram on Google. But because of the tight clearance between the tranny and the truck body, you will probably have to remove/replace the assembly in pieces.

There are some good how-to videos on the internet.

If they screwed something up in the past I don't understand why you would go back. I guess as long as they make it right.

I mainly notice it in second due to city driving! I can manually hold it in second and floor it and she will slip. The 1-2 shift seems ok but the 2-3 shift seems very lose
