- '95 XLT 4x4
I have 1995 Ford Explorer XLT 4X4 4.0... I rebuilt the tranny in it about a month ago now, and took it trail riding 2 or 3 days ago now. Well this trail consisted of mud too so yea. Anyways about an hour or two of riding I leave the trail. I get on solid ground put the truck in 2wd and try and go and it was acting like the tranny was trying to lock up, and my check engine light came on and all of a sudden truck kept trying to die like it was breathing water. After about 5 minutes of driving on the street the check engine light went off and my truck slowly started running better. Now it's running fine, but when I'm driving it's like my transmission don't have an over drive. It goes to shift up, but instead, it just revs up and downshifts itself. So I shift it out of OD and put it in 2nd and my truck will drive fine just don't have overdrive. It's an auto... If anyone might have some advice as what might be going on or what I should do. The truck takes off fine now and everything, but just downshifts itself instead of going into overdrive, and so I have to shift it to 2nd to keep it driving normal without o.d. Also for future reference is there a way to test the cooler to see if it's cooling my tranny fluid properly??? Thanks in advance!!!
