Suckamatic problems
 
I had a freak occurance involving my trans today. I was pulling away from a stop and noticed it was in OD. As in started away in fourth gear. I manually shifted down to first and then back to drive and it shifted up for itself. However it slipped alot, would not downshift for itself and my OD light was blinking. I pulled over and checked the fluid, good level, not too dirty or burned. The trans has about 25k on it since rebuild a year ago.
I stopped at a clients house, worked on the pool for about 30 mins, started the truck and all symptoms had dissappeared. Strange.
I changed the fluid and filter and gasket tonite and found a bolt dangling from the valvebody. Could that have freaked out my ride? Wish me luck.
