Sorry for title, thought I'd get better help here instead of 911 forum.
Near Bakersfield, CA, live LA ... on drive north truck started acting up: Was driving normal, no load, 65 mph, 2100 RPM, engine hiccupped, RPM gauge fell to zero ... maintained speed, few minutes later hiccup again, RPM gauge works. Happened three or four times, pulled over, idled ~20 min, checked fluid, bubbly, can't get accurate read but fluid present. No leaks at all, never does. Let sit at idle another 20 min, noticed OD light goes solid when RPM gauge drops to 0 and, same time, faint buzzing/hissing noise from tranny on driver side. Stops after few secs then normal. when drive now, works only R, 1 and 2 ... if in OD truck revs and drags like e- brake on. No blinking OD light ... just solid during "problem" phase.
Am I screwed? Know a good mechanic in Bakersfield? I'm at Motel 6 in Buttonwillow. E4OD + manual t-case.
