1998 Mazda B4000, 4.0 5 speed Auto trans. 160,000 miles, Pulling out into traffic, medium excelleration: trans shifts 1, 2, 3, Neutral!VROOM! Coasting along I Turn into drive of Gas Station, engine revs with pedal, no change in trans no matter what position i move shift lever, coasting into parking i stop and try to back into parking spot, but no reverse gear, engine sorta suptters and dies. CRAP! I try starter, starter motor “whirrs” but does not engage. Crawl underneath and tap, bang on starter to see if I can get solinod to engage with out any luck....Merry Christmas, I now own a dead truck!!
What are the chances the Starter and Tranny die at the same moment?
Not sure i wanna spend big bucks to R&R the starter, just to find the trans is shot, which will cost more than than the trucks worth. What do you guys Think?
