I was headed down to Maryland this morning to pick up some 33s and skid plates, when 20 minutes down the highway the truck just kind of quit. The engine was still running and it would rev up nicely in neutral, but when in gear it would bog down like crazy and just barely go ... even if I gave it a lot of gas.
I got off the highway and started limping home. It was so bad that on some of the hills, I had to put it in 4Low and idle up the hill. It was also suging a lot.
I pulled over and thought about it for a while. The engine was fine and the fuel was fine, so I figured maybe the tranny was taking a dump. After it cooled a bit, it ran a bit better and I was able to get to the Autozone.
Joey came out and looked it over for me. He is pretty sure its just low on tranny fluid. I changed the radiator last weekend and maybe I lost some fluid during the change.
I'm gonna do a filter and fluid change tonight, but any ideas what else this could be?
