Tranny issue

[buckels]

Does any one know what would cause my trans to stall my truck any time I drop it in to reverse? It doesnt do it for any other gear just reverse. I want to know if I need to replace the trans or the torque converter or what.

[outlawdiesel]

have you tried to replaced solenoid pack yet?

[buckels]

No I dont even know where that would be.. I dont know much about trannies.

The one thing that could stall the engine when put into rev would be the TC. The converter could engage for some reason and kill the engine. Kinda like dumping the clutch.This does not mean that there is major problem with the trans or the TC.

When you shift to rev does it kill it hard like dumping the clutch or does the motor slowly die? You could have some sort of drivabilty problemCausing the stall.

It dies really quickly it will be running then Peh dead and I have to restart her. The only way to keep it from dying is to hit the accelerator.

Your Torque converter is shot

I thought that might be what it was but wanted a second opinion before I went and bought one. I guess Ill be calling suncoast sooner then I thought. Thanks guys
