Im 57 .. just needed a clunker around the house to do some work. Got this truck for a song and dance.
Ill have to search the forum to see if I can find info on how to ID the transmission.
The problem is that up to 45 there are not problems.
When I hit 55 and let off the gas, the tranny disengages and the engine just revs until the truck speed comes down to 40 or 45.
The question is, Has anyone experienced this issue and if so, was an external part the cause or was a rebuild necessary. If its a rebuild Ill probably just put a junk yard in there. My daughters boy friend is a jr Ford mechanic. He can do the swap but is not experienced in troubleshooting. He has already cleaned up the wiring this kid did. what a cluster. I guess the kid had a woofer installed. Wiring was pretty bad. Good Now.
Anyway ... any help or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards
Chris
