    E4od torque converter not locking up.

    I bought the transmission from a wrecking yard ... it was supposed to be a good one, but it wasn't after fighting it for a month and swapping the torque converter the warranty ran out. Cottman Transmission is the one that found the problem.

    DB electrical 4 kw starter

    I know exactly what you went through had the same thing happened while I was using a lathe 30 years ago... I was only going to take a little bit of metal off and didn't want to walk all the way across the shop to get my safety glasses on... Yeah felt great!

    E4od torque converter not locking up.

    So after fighting my e4od on and off for a year I finally brought it to a transmission shop that actually had any kind of ideas... the problem was the torque converter would not lockup... I tried to get ideas on forums but nothing positive came of it... so I cleaned all the wiring harness...

    E4od valve body

    Transmission guy says the valve body would fix the detent problem and may give me better performance towing so it wouldn't hurt to kill that bird and that might fix it ... but the computer could be bad and/or/also... who does a control module for these trucks?

    Motorcraft fan clutch no good

    So you make the "spring/coil" long-term to make it lockup sooner? by a 1/8 to a1/4 inch?... can you replace the coil if you break it?... and jb weld would work?

    E4od valve body

    The transmission guy says the valve body is most likely bad... and I'm thinking he's right because of a few things it's doing.

    R&D has some awesome head gaskets in the works, find out if they're for sale yet.

    Head studs/ gaskets

    The 093 is waist gated the others are not... does yours have a rubber hose going to a vacuum canister looking thing on the side of the turbo with a rod hooked up to a arm on it on the exhaust? Lack of sleep is making it hard to think straight.
