messed up tranny and ignition by churchillbilly

i have a 97 gmc blazer which has had the selenoids replaced once. it fixed the problem for about 6 months then the key started sticking in the ignition, problem comes back plus the battery keeps draining. i can start it cold and it will go for about 100 yds then the radiator gets hot and it shuts of however my electrical keeps working and the check engine light comes on, diagnostics said selenoid problem but i cant help but believe the faulty ignition switch has a big part to play any suggestions?

Are you referring to a differential pressure sensor? Those are used to detect pressure differences between one part of a system and another as in oil or transmission filtration systems.

I had a bearing go in my 4L60E trans and am in the process of pulling it out to put in a rebuilt unit. Question: How do you get to the torque converter to flex plate bolts?

pull the starter motor and sheet metal cover. Using a breaker bar on the harmonic balancer bolt turn the motor to the next bolt. There will be 3 of them in there. Be sure to disconnect the battery before you do this as not to accidentally start the engine.
You will need to unbolt the tranny from the engine to get the torque converter out. Hope this helps

97 blazer tranny by blazergirl73

my truck would not go in reverse, it was ok in drive, but slipped at times. Tried to add tranny fluid, now it wont go anywhere in drive or reverse. Is the transmission blown or could there be another answer? If tranny most likely is blown, is it a very expensive fix? Just happened today. help!!

Adjustment by duntov

It could be a linkage adjustment. Take it to a auto repair shop that DOES NOT rebuild transmissiions or sell and install rebuilt transmissions. That way you will get an unbiased diagnosis of he problem and if it is just an adjustment, that shop will propbably be able to do it.

I just got my 97 blazer as a gift. i knew it needed work but i have no idea how to fix this... Going down the road if you push the gas lightly you can get up to speed as long as your not on a hill, but as soon as you press the gas to much there is complet loss of power. it will keep running but it basicly boggs out. Can anyone tell me what might be the problem????
