| Hello im new on this forum i would really appreciate if someboby could help me out i have a 98 f-150 6cyl two wheel drive with an automatic transmission the problem is when i put it on drive it drives off really good and it shifts to 2nd gear smooth but when it wants to shift to 3rd gear it slips like it feels that its in neutral and the engine revs up and then it shift really hard to 3rd after that OD works fine in order to keep it from reving when its going to shift to 3rd i have to take my foot off the gas and wait til the rpm goes low and i feel the gear change then i can give it gas and it shfts fine is this a major problem or is it something that can be done without removing the tranny? the truck only has 87000 original miles PLEASE I NEED YOUR OPINION..... | |
I just bought a '97' F150 4x4. After a month of owning it the tranny overdrive light on the shift knob blinks on&off , then it's starting shifting hard.what is it and what should I do?

Replying to: histeve (Sep 08, 2009 2:22 pm) cluches have started slipping that why the od light is flashing. prepair to rebuild or replace your trans. I have a 97 F350 diesel that had an E4OD doing the same thing so i change to a ZF 5 speed. lot of work but well worth it. |

I have installed an e40d in my truck from a local auto salvage. I drove it apprx. 100 milles, shifted great. After 100 miles it made a loud grinding noise coming to a stop. Then a clunk, I shut it off and had it towed. Any ideas. Thanks!

While at driving speed truck seems to jerk or hesitate. No sign that the engine is missing or hesitating. Have noticed that speedomoter occasionally has rapid changes that can not be true but I can not correlate this to the jerking problem. Also the ABS light is on solid even though the truck does not have ABS (build ticket says it does but it is not there, thanks ford) There is no check engine light so I assume there are no codes posted. I suspect that the tourque converter lockup clutch is shifting in and out because of the unstable speedo reading. Can I disconnect the speed sensor and drive the truck or will it be unable to shift because it does not know what the speed is or will I experience converter heating?? Any help in diagnosing apreciated. |
