+1. And I'll add that if you added Lucas to it, a rebuild is in your imminent future.
Lucas is a stop gap to fix leaky seals. It swells and softens them to the point where break up and clog the internals. I have no idea how long it'll run with it in there, but it will fail, and most shops will charge you extra to clean that crap out.

Good luck with the Lucas junk.

That is clearly a symptom of a bad Governor sensor and governor solenoid.

$hitty! I was liking the idea of the tv cable binding... lol But yeah, it's like a valve is sticking. I venture to say, the guy I bought the truck from probably never had it down over half throttle. He never drove it far, and isn't the type to "clean out the spark plugs once in a while" like I am... lol
