tranny
the tranny on my truck started slipping, i kno this is dumb but are there any additives i can put in the tranny to keep it going for a little while things are tough right now and i dont have the money for a rebuild
|
Have you done a shift kit yet?
|
Is it slipping at High RPMS or what? I know mine slips If I stand on it, drop a gear and then it shifts back.
|
it was driving fine, i noticed it was shifting weird but other then that it was ok untill i came up to a stop sign and wen i went to go i the truck reved up but didnt move for a good second then the tranny caught n it drove, i parked it at home n havnt drivn it since

N or P is fine, just running. Did it smell burned or bad? Was it full?
Could be as simple as a pump issue. I have a 95 bronco at home that is just a emergicy rig (has not had the oil changed in about 6 years... LOL) and it has a bad pump in the tranny. It will NOT move without going to about half throttle when you first drive it. Once it has a mile on it or so its fine for the rest of the day. Might have to check the pump pressures. I assume you have a tranny gauge, pull the probe out and install some kind of pressure gauge that reads from 0-400psi. You should have about 150 psi at idle in P... I have to go check by book to be sure on that, but its well above 100psi. |
the fluid didnt smell burnt, wen i pulled the dip stick i couldnt tell if there was fluid on it i added 2 quarts and it seemed to help alittle, but it was dark so i couldnt realy check everything ill look at it today, if i mean a tranny temp gauge no i donot have one,
