problem #1

Nov 172010

Ram 1500 SLT 4.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 152,151 miles

Driving along, the transmission starts to kick out and engine races. Pull into a station wait a while, and go on about ten miles. It starts again.

Had mechanic look at it, he suggests replacing transmission. His ace hand suggests replacing plugs and running injector cleaner through engine. This helps for a while, the it starts all over again. Best solution, take off radiator cap and drive new Toyota under it.
