What causes rpms to fluctuate?
If your RPM fluctuates while accelerating, it could be because your spark plugs have gone bad on you. Worn-out spark plugs can cause misfires to occur within your engine, and those misfires can lead to your engine vibrating a whole lot. Those vibrations can lead to the RPM in your engine going haywire on you.
What are the RPMs of a Silverado truck?

When driving, slightly accerating, the truck is doing about 1100 rpm in its 6th gear. The engines RPMs seem to bounce back and forth 50-100 rpm.
What should the engine RPMs be when driving?
It seems to happen primarily when traveling between 45-55mph. When driving, slightly accerating, the truck is doing about 1100 rpm in its 6th gear. The engines RPMs seem to bounce back and forth 50-100 rpm.
Why do engine RPMs bounce back and forth?
The engines RPMs seem to bounce back and forth 50-100 rpm. It is not the usual ‘bounce’ you get from v4 to v8 mode, it is happening while accelerating which i can see is keeping it in v8 mode. To add to it, it is no happeing in really any other gear or driving condition.
Why does my Silverado 4L60E have lame shifts?
Apparently on the newer trucks the engineers re-designed (un-desinged?) the 4L60E so that it has incredibly lame shifts. The converter never really locks up like you would think. There’s something called Pulse Wave Modulation (PWM) used to make the converter lock-up almost undetectable.

What’s the RPM of a 2010 Chevy Silverado?
As for the 2010 Silverado in this post, that tranny actually failed. IT was slipping 200-1000 rpm at the end, getting to 200-250 temp in normal driving. One rebuild and 2 leaks later I traded her off for a 2014. Couldn’t have made a better decision.
