hello to anyone out there this a.m.
having problems with an auto transmission on my 94 F150.
at every change it ,BUMPS........JERKS........or some other similar adjective. doesn't do it all the time,maybe after ten or so miles.
and ,Yes there is fluid in it.
Please ask me any questions , that might help me to explain any better what i am experienceing.

 

Welcome to the forum! So it does that to you only when it's getting hot?

 

thanx for the welcome............
but lets find me some help for this transmission thing before i panic
Yes......when it gets hot , that seems to be when the problem begins.
the engine is not over heating, already checked that out.
so what now .....?fast hamster dude?(dudette?)

 

When was the last tine you've changed fluid and filter? And what exactly happends when it shifts?

 

Good Mornin.........
This truck has only been in our family for a year and we have never changed either of these. So that would be a good place to start.?
As the transmission changes from first to second there is an unusual jerk, then it goes right into second and as it goes into third the same thing occurs. Everything in the engine seems to be fine.....my son has done much rebuilding and replacing of engines of all his ford trucks ,however repairing transmissions , not so much.This problem is occuring in my daughters truck and i am game to take on the challenge myself....i hope.

 

What year is the truck? What transmission is in the truck?
Try servicing the transmission first. Spin the motor by hand and look to see if there is a drain plug on the torq convertor. If so drain it too. Then install a new filter and gasket and re-fill the transmission. See if that works.
