    I think it is electrical....maybe....

    tranny level is full and clean...the old fluid was kinda black, and immediately after swapping the engine (2000 km ago), I changed the filter and fluid in the tranny the way that you suggested to me....with a 5 gallon pail and a clear tube on the top tranny line. The truck was broken down for...

    frustration...hmmmm... I oughta be used to it... Ok...the story..... I got the truck for free because it apparently needed a new engine.. I say apparently because it might have just needed head gaskets...the old engine is sitting outside my house still, I haven't taken it apart, and I don't...

    ok....where are they and how do I check them? I think that the pos tranny with 307,000 km on it couldnt take the torque of the new 6.5 personally, but I will check other things if people could direct me. I also think maybe I shouldn't have changed the old black fluid out for new stuff. But I...

    I cleared codes this morning...attempted to drive to work......defaulted to second gear. Code 87 gear ratio error. I am guessing I am in need of a rebuilt 4L80E, and am I correct in assuming that apart from the egr codes, my drivability issues may all be due to the tranny?

    grounds are good Perhaps it has to do with the oil that is leaking out of my rear most oil line. It seems to malfunction after it is warm, can the oil pressure switch turn off the fuel pump if enough oil leaks out of that line? The dealer told me there is no o ring there on the oil cooler line

    My 6.5 is new, as in it has a couple thousand km on it. My water in fuel light flickers sometimes, but it will go out if I press on the brake, and I have seen it flash with the turn signals opposite the timing of the turn signal flash. When my hazards are on, they stop flashing and stay lit if I...
