been running B99 soybean oil and/or recycled fryer oil type bio for a year now and it runs great--just change the fuel filter regularly.

does anyone know how to properly work on a gasoline tank? on another vehicle, I'm tanking the tank off to sand it down and paint it. is the proper method to drain the tank, then fill it with water?

thank you. I'll take a look. Might be a good time to replace pads/rotors anyway. The comment about the bearings is a good idea. BTW the back brakes are drums.

coming down a steep grade the other day, I smelled that the brakes burned. This is the first time this has ever happened on this truck. I pulled over and let 'em cool down for 1/2 hour. brakes seemed fine thereafter. should I have the brakes checked out by a mechanic? What are the potential...

Are the particles large, like size of a grain of salt or larger, or is it more like fine almost powder-like metal? I have heard that if If it's very fine that is normal wear, but large particles could mean something more serious. A transmission expert can look at the metal shavings and...

on my 2001 the old power steering fluid needs to be flushed out and new fluid added. I have read many posts about how to flush the fluid and which fluid to use. Additionally I've read a TSB which says to use this or that fluid. Anyone have any opinion which is best: ATF4 or synthetic P. S...

my trans (47RE) seems to shift 5 times. acceleration from a stop to 60 mph is this what I'm actually feeling 1... 2... 3. . lock... OD? Also, cruising at around 30-35 mph the trans seems to go between lock and 3 back and fourth for no reason, or is it going from lock and OD? is this normal?

FIXED! what a great site and thanks everyone for your knowledge. codes from odometer said P0753 and P1725; replaced those parts: TRANS RELAY AND SHIFT SOLENOID. and it is up and driving again. Thanks again! Robert

have the same problem with my '01. (wont shift out of first) pumping the throttle coaxes it to shift eventually after revving high rpm's. . replaced the speed sensor on the trans and did not fix the problem. Today I did try unpluggin the relay in the fuse box, and now the shifting seems to work...

Replaced the speed sensor today as that was the easiest thing to do first... did not fix the problem. I'm wondering if I should take it to the dealer or transmission shop and have them check it out or just go ahead and replace the governor pressure solenoid, and filter and adjust bands while I'm under...

I'm curious if changing sensor or transducer fixed the problem. I have an almost similar problem with my truck. I just changed out the SPEED SENSOR but that did not fix it.

Thanks Missouri Mule. Tried that first thing this morning. Started out with shifter in first, let the rpm's build up, then manually shift up to second, then D. I could not hear or feel the gears change, BUT after going through that sequence, now in "Drive" the trans FINALLY shifted up from low...

yesterday everything was fine... started down the road this morning and the truck wont shift past first gear (4sp auto trans) I drove it a while before it FINALLY shifted up to higher gears. Come to a stop, then the same thing again after acceleration. So it needs to run in first gear too long...
