My truck makes a pisst noise like a burst of air mainly when i shift gears.
I sounds like what an exuast value sounds like when they go bad but this only happens when i shift so i am not sure.

Any ideas?
 
This truck is making me anger!!!!!
 
sounds like a turbo blow off valve! jk. maybe a vacum leak? is it only when the rpm drops?
 
Yeah it may be that it is a vacuum leak because when i put my hand over the throttle the truck doesn't die. and a hear a sucking noise by the transmission.
And thats where i always hear the noise
 
use carb cleaner to find out where it is, just spray at it, and the engine will bog down when you found it.
 
Well it also happens when i reve the engine at idle but not all the time

Any chance you're burning ATF?

Disconnect and plug the vacuum modulator. Your transmission won't shift correctly, but your engine should work better.
 
I drained the atf fluid and I put 80 weight gear oil in yesterday day
 

some guy on this site told me to put atf fluid in my tranny so i did then i got back on 2 days latter and another guy said that aft fluid is wrong well he was right im supposed to put gear oil in it
 
I just read the thread on your tranny fluid, You have the TK
Ok, I understand why now, sorry

As for the hissing noise, does it do it at idle?
You really need to get a flashlight and try and track it down
