I would change the hoses and o rings in the selector valve, but the problem didn't go away when I ran the truck on a 5 gal fuel can hook directly to the lift pump.
I changed the overflow valve with a known working unit, no change.
I checked all the ports on the exhaust manifold with a IR temp...
Went off-roading a few months ago and on an extreme angle I think sucked some air. The truck never died but sputtered for a while. The rest of the day it would intermittently
sputter again on angles. Drove it home with a slight lack of power due to the sputter. Came home, change the secondary...

Take Simp's advice, if you switch to DEXiii make sure to add an additional cooler. ATF doesn't handle high heat as well as 15-40 will. The radiator cooling fan doesn't come on until 190 degrees which means the trans heat exchanger will only cool to about 190
Devin and I had a great time and the next desert trip we will be more prepared for the "activities". I got lazy on picture taking so here is all I have. Did anyone sleep on Sat night? lol :naner:
