Shifting Issues - 1st Gear - 97 3500 1 Ton Van
Hi,
Drove 200 miles from.GA using OD and cruise control with no issues.
Next day she labored going into 1st gear. I put her in Park, shifted through all the gears and then back to Drive. She worked.
I noticed I have had to take my foot off gas to shift into 3rd gear a few times, but once she's past it the ride is sweet. Oh, she has 116k miles, 46RE Tran, 5.9l Magnum engine.
Fluid is bright red, clear, no smells, no leaks. Prior owner serviced it before I bought her.
Replaced ECM and it cleared the Governor & solenoid codes.
What could be causing these issues? Should I add Seafoam Trans Tune ans Lucas Anti Slip to help her out? Should I go ahead & replace the Givernor, Shift solenoid & OD to be on the safe side?
Thanks in advance for your help.
