(I'm from Saskatchewan, and we have plenty of snow right now, pulled the truck into a heated shop so moisture isnt out of the question)... Its a 1998 Chevrolet 1500 extended cab Z71.
This could be completely unrelated but... My thermostats were causing me trouble, so i pealed off the thermostat housing and accidentally dropped a bolt under the intake. After an hour of trying to get it out with a magnet i resorted to some air... i blew the bolt up to the front and fished it out with a magnet.. put it all back together and it was pumping heat perfect.. Here's where the problem started though..
I took it out on highway and noticed my speedo quit working, no cruise either (obviously) and the truck shifts whenever it feels like it and when it does shift it bangs the shifts... Sensor? Throttle position sensor? Vehicle speed sensor.. (two of them?)?
Thanks for the help
