To be honest, I dont know. I dont have alot of experience with ATF. It didnt smell great, but it didnt smell awful either.

hmmm... maybe there is hope.. a slim shadow of hope...

Well If the trans needs to be rebuilt I will be making payments on a very LARGE yard ornament. I will be leaving for Basic Jan 20. I could MAYBE swing a single disc converter, but not a worth wile rebuild.

 

yea sorry to break it to ya but mines in the shop right now getting a new teansmission... mine was doin the same thing..they said all the sensors were fried in there and they replaced the torque converter.tension spring all sensors and throttle posiotion sensor etc. 3k$$ not a good day. the jack *** i baught it from changed the fluid so I couldnt tell.

 

Sorry bud... On another note, good luck in basic. I serve in the army, stationed in Korea. Thank you for volunteering to serve our country. What branch? Mos? I'm 15r, I maintain apache helicopters.

 

Thanks, MOS is 12N, "12November". Ill be a horizontal construction engineer. I am NCANG.

 

Where are you going to Basic? My old unit is @ Benning (1/50th) and is an Infantry Basic training unit now. Was Mechanized Infantry when I was assigned. I was 91B20. Thanks for your voluntary service. Mine was not and the claw marks I left to the induction center are still apparent. In the end my military experience was a good thing, while for others I served with it was not and some died and others suffer to this day.

 

Basic will be in SC and AIT is in MO. I believe military experiences are mostly what you make of them. I want to be there, and I plan to make the most of it. I am however not a very strong person. I think If i can make the 1st few weeks of basic, ill have it made.

 

Best of everything to you and thanks again.

 

Lol I did my basic in lenardwood and went to ft Jackson for my ait 63b. Thanks for serving soldier

Where in Korea are u stationed I got to spend 1yr 23 day at lovely camp casey 2nd id

Thanx to all who are serving and those how have served and those that are thinking of serving

 

first off i want to THANK ALL of you serving our country.if it wasn't for you we wouldn't be able to enjoy these awsome trucks or be on sites like this sharing or knowledge.may our GOD richly bless and you and your families.sorry FIVE NINE about you tranny issues.i know it sucks,i'v had mine in &out 10 times.the one guy asked you about how the fluid smelled because if the trans got too hot or built up too much friction the fluid will have a burnt smell to it.the brown color you saw in it is the friction material wearing off the clutch backs.to see some is normal but if there appears to be alot that may be an indication the trans is going.you may need to drop the pan to really see how much friction mat. is in there.it's a messy job cause of all the fluid,ya need a big drain pan hope this helps.if i was in your area i'd gladly help ya.hope it works out for ya.

 

Thanks man.

Thanks man. Thanks for your service.

Thank you. I plan to leave any major work till after I get back. Ill buy a lift pump once I get back. We'll see how it turns out.
