    700r4 stuck in 1st gear

    whilst all the above are good suggestions from people who likely know more about these than I do. I'll go with my first question, got enough trans fluid in it? just to eliminate the dumb stuff first.

    Plastic Vacuum lines

    when we did ours to get the actuators working again I bought an electric vac pump with pigtail and vacuum ball all together from amazon ( dorman 904-214) and silicone hosing. had to get a new control box from oldairproducts because i went to open my 9 port and the plastic disagreed with my choices.

    6.2 running poorly

    while i'm still learning diesel, white smoke makes me think you have steam in the system. I hope it's not a Milkshake who brings all the boys to the yard situation. what's your dip stick telling? Black as night or creamy goo?

    lines on the other cooler run to trans, the cooler is kind of dinky though so might go ahead and upgrade. warmth might also be due to a good size patch of the underlay and carpet is gone and the exhaust runs near there too. but its not Hot/scalding temps just warm.

    Today is a bit less extreme out. looking at the schematic from LMC Truck looks like the the trans cooler lines run to the Radiator. so i'll pop the hood and take a lookie to see if we got that running. will report back.

    the PO monkeying has been surprisingly minimal on this rig, it's just got the one cooler in front of the rad that I can see. the build spec sheet doesn't have a trans cooler listed, if that was something that would be on there (not that that matters so much on a 40 year old vehicle)

    it's got insulation, it's a Silverado trim (ooh lala) it's just been well used, I think i'm owner 4 or 5 and the carpet is original.

    after consideration, that's probably an oil cooler. so gonna add a trans cooler to the upgrades list. how much of a pain in the rear end were the bushings to replace. the running boards on the burban and riding at stock height...not super easy to crawl in and out of. theres good chance...

    ok I braved the heat...well muggy heat which is worse, and I see a mini "radiator" in front of the main, following the hoses they go down and back, changing to hardline so I can only guess that would be a trans cooler and not a condenser

    specs: 82 c10 burb 2wd 6.2 700r4 now that i've got my big brown box legal i'm able to tool around town, get all the juices circulated, listen for odd behavior etc. so they can be addressed before I take it camping. after hearing my debt card cry putting fuel in it I note that the trans humb...
