I doubt I was making more than 8-10MPH, 5K would not have moved that tow vehicle and trailer at all, your talking about 16-18K or so in soft sand
I know what it feels like to be on the end of a logging chain and that is what it felt like, (Edit I started off roading long before there ever was a...
Well of course on the 4th weekend I had to go to Port A,
I did not take my big flag because I was in the mood for some jackassery
The first pull of the day was downright boring.
The second not so much, I came across a cluster of 1 ton duallies, three of them all chained together, two of them...
The part with the seals in it that goes over the rod is called a gland.
I have allot of stuff around the farm with different types of cylinders, some with 2-3 sections, I have a knuckle truck right now with a blown seal, the rod is almost 4" I need to get someone to help me with that one as it...
One issue is the starter solenoid when the contacts separate in the switch that huge coil in the the solenoid creates a large high voltage reverse polarity pulse (that pesky reverse EMF I am always preaching about) if the contacts do not move apart fast enough OR far enough from each other or...
I picked up a nice embossed one from Austin (beltfed) on Fleabay that I put on the DuraVee
It of course would not be correct to paint the letters (read I am just too dang lazy and uncoordinated :LOL: )
Welcome to the forum, common wisdom is any keyed switch will cost you dearly in the end, none are made to take the loads and voltage the HMMWV puts on the run switch, it is said that many expensive starters and EESS boxes have died at the hands of a keyed switch.
Also put a pressure gauge on it and see if there is a pressure drop in 2nd, if it was the A solenoid (1-2 shift) it would likely act up in 4th when fully warmed up.
There of course will be a pressure drop during the shift but it should recover to about the same pressure as 1st.
Otherwise it...
I doubt you will find much useful information available in the first gen. diesel 4L80E TCM it was very basic with a couple of analog readings (RPM) I don't think it even had a TPS or any pressure readings, at that time they relied on trouble codes almost exclusively which you do not have to have...
This is one of the local auctioneers my wife works for so I can do a cursory inspection, looks nice in the picture, looks like supplemental armor doors.

Actually I have one of those laying around here somewhere, When I bought my GEP turbo motor which obviously had very few miles on it I unfortunately decided not to pay the $500 extra for the starter and 200A alternator, so the guy sold me a serpentine pulley because I was going to convert my...
