ok...so i meant no harm by mentioning Veterans Day. I myself am a Vet and was enjoying the activities I had planned for the days celebrations.
I didnt put gas in it. I have yet to do that. Knock on wood.
I will jump on the injection pump tomorrow and see what i find. I will keep you posted. I...
Hey all,
So I was cruising down the freeway at 65 and about to pass a car. I then realized I was losing speed vice gaining. More accelerator...less speed. No smoke, no idiot lights just a slow fade away. I made it to the next off ramp and she died. tried cranking and she wasnt having it. popped...
so i took the pumpkin cover off today and found that one of the shims had disintegrated. i cleaned it all out and took her to the shop. appreciate everybody who helped.
so now a bit more to report. I was backing out of a down hill parking spot and i just stopped. no brakes applied. i got nervous really fast and didnt want to force reverse. I squeezed out with what room i had in front of me. could it also be brakes binding?
it chips on the street. like I had mentioned, this behavior just started. As far as the reverse goes, i was barely moving. first time for the shudder issue.
I will replace u joints and fluid this weekend just to rule them out.
Good day all,
so i have a new issue with my 84 cucv. when i turn right the right side rear tire chirps. it has never done this before. then yesterday i was reversing in a dirt lot and the whole truck started to shudder. on asphalt it is normal. I recently had my tranny rebuilt, but I cant...
ok gents,
I have read several forums, but still cant find the answer. so here are my symptoms and the things i have done.
Symptoms- running great til last night. tranny wouldnt shift into 3rd. checked fluid, quart low. topped it off. still no change. tried manually shifting. no go. checked...
So I need to jump in on this thread, instead of making a new one. just replaced tranny and she was running great. all new vacuum lines/modulator were installed too. its been 3 months now and just this past friday she started doing hard shifts. re checked lines-all good. have plenty of vacuum...
so I am so freakin frustrated with this tranny gig. first off, thanks to the replies. so I just jumped back under the truck to button things up on the tranny after getting reassurance that the TC was correct. I go to put on my access cover and it doesnt fit. the bell housing doesnt even have the...
well, I pulled the tranny and had quite the issue with the tranny vendor, they sent out the wrong tranny blah, blah, blah. so here it is on a sunday afternoon and Im putting the tranny back in and little voices in my head were questioning the TC that they gave me. they sent me a recon gm6, but...
Understand all. Thats why i was doing a tranny swap. The shop said there was something wrong, just not what was wrong. I was going to replace my TC since i had the tranny out. I was wondering if there was a specific one i should by as i have added a turbo. I heard that allisons were good, but...
The reason im rebuilding my tranny is because i hadve the following symptoms and ha e made the following repairs.
Symptoms;
Weak and slower than molasses off the line.
If at a stop on a hill i get high rpms and little movement. Slippage?
Shifting once was firm, now soft and at times needs to be...
Hey all,
