I'm new to this forum, just sold my 86 bronco and got a 2000 f-250 I've been having an issue with my tranny and couldn't seem to find an answer to what's wrong lol basically when I'm driving and get into 2nd gear it shifts smoothly but if I let off the long skinny pedal it hesitates and feels like it drops back to first. If I put my foot back on the pedal it hesitates again. I checked my tranny fluid and it was black and smelt burnt so I changed the fluid but noticed the pan had metal flakes in it. I'm about to take it to my friends shop to have it looked at, any suggestions as to what's wrong with it? If so what parts would y'all recommend if I'm not using it for towing but plan on goin in the mud

welcome to PSN.
if the fluid was black and smelled burned, let the trans shop make the decision on what to do. probably a minor overhaul. and i would not take a diesel truck in the mud, they are very heavy and sink real fast.

Transmission RelatedI’m getting Fluid leaking from the dipstick housing that’s attached to the transmission itself not the stick. Anyone know what’s going on there. It seems to be a little loose and has some white type of putty in between the joint going to the pan? Is there an o ring or does it need to be set...- 2

2002 4R100 trans Will Not Engage Trans in Drive
Transmission RelatedShifting into drive and the engine just winds up. Dropping down to 1st and it will engage. Also, reverse still works. No hint of any kind of problem. Fluid is pink and full with no leaks. Just happened after running fine for 20 miles. Any ideas?- 7

dowels
Transmission RelatedI am putting an engine in my van that was originally in an f series with a manual. To bolt up the 4r100 I know I need the adapter plate and the longer dowels. Where can I find the longer dowels? The ford dealer couldn't find a part number for them. And then how in the hell do I get the old...- 7

I’ve been struggling with the clutch going on 2 summers now. The DMF has finally had enough as of 4 weeks ago. Last year, tried replacing with a...- 2
