Well as many of you have read I have had some transmission troubles. By the way turned 100,000 miles today. Not bad for 10 monthes 24 days.

Any way the problem was not the transmission but the VA. I could not feel any of what i thought was shudder unless under a load and the VA plugged in. Well I swapped the VA with my fathers and SHAZZAM!! No more shudder (or what I guess was engine stumble). Drove over 400 miles today pulling my trailer and the truck ran like new.

Called BD and they said they would send me a new one but I went by Coastal Diesel Injection and they gave me a new one.

I'm happy now! #ad

Thanks for the update, it is very educational to us all when we can see how solutions come about.

I for one am going to keep this in mind, it is very interesting.

We relate shuddering to oil already and this is another thing for us to consider.
Thanks again for the update.

Holy cow! 100K miles in 10 months!? #ad

That's a lot of seat time! Good thing is that the warranty (if you had the extended one) is now no longer an issue! #ad
